Answer 2

I don't DIET on the Low Carb plan, I LIVE on it. As long as it doesn't have carrots, corn, peas, potatoes or pasta I love it. Salads can be varied and most interesting with the variety of fresh veggies available. Toss a half cup of diced cooked meat of any type on top, grate a little cheese over it. All my salads come out at about 30 grams of carb. I don't know how anyone can get bored with green leafy veggies, tomatoes, cukes, radishes, broccoli, cauliflower, Hey, I ate a grated zucchini salad the other day that was excellent. made with the same ingredients as potato salad but in place of the potato they used grated zucchini. Raw!!!

Hubby did the low-fat/low-cholesterol diet until he became "borderline" diabetic and had to go on a low-carb diet. We did the Atkins thing so I'm very familiar with recipes for all of the above.

Low-carb recipes are the easiest to do because there's no work to them. Meats, veggies (the lower carbby ones like cabbage, zucchini, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels Sprouts, pea pods, summer squash). You can make quiches without the crust using the eggs, milk or cream, your fav meats, cheeses. You can either boil, steam or bake your veggies. My neighbor who also did Atkins for a bit used to buy the Atkins syrup and she's sprinkle it on her veggies before she baked them. You can make Mock Potato casserole using cauliflower instead of potatoes. The only changes you have to make between the two recipes is steam the cauliflower until you can mash it with a fork and substitute the sour cream with cream cheese since cauliflower doesn't soak up moisture like potatoes do. You can use your cheese, chives, and crisp bacon in it. Hubby loves it. Everyone asks for it to be served on the side at Thanksgiving and Christmas too.

You can take any seafood, place a layer of Romaine lettuce in a steamer and place the seafood on top of it in a single layer, top with more Romaine and steam until the seafood is done. The Romaine - cooked - tastes like a mild spinach. All that is low-carb.

You can make cheese souflle but use some psyllium powder in place of the flour - very little - like no more than 1/8 tsp. Hubby takes the psyllium powder as a fiber supplement (like a person taking Metamucil but psyllium powder has no flavor so it doesn't change the flavor of your dish). It will be enough to keep the souffle from having liquid in the bottom. I originally tried it with almond flour but it just couldn't keep the dish together all the way through. Tried Vital Wheat gluten too - same thing - but the psyllium powder did the trick. Be careful not to use too much or it will "jell" and jell quickly!!

Lots of egg dishes you can make - adding onions, bell pepper, hamburger, garlic, guyrere cheese, parmesan cheese, and kale for a nice Joe's Special.

You can cook zucchini and summer squash either in the oven or steamed and top with Hollandaise sauce - no flour there. Or top with cheese sauce - again thicken with the psyllium powder but not very much.

Hope that helps.
