Call for Links: Recipe Sites

baconslave · December 2014

A section we lack on the Launch Pad so far is a Link Library for Recipes. Ok. We lack a lot of different things, but one step at a time.

We already have threads open for Book and Video suggestions, so if you have any of those, check the Launch Pad for the easy links.

Just post the site URL and give a brief description of your submission. We'll keep this one "open" for awhile so you can come and post them as you find them.

If you have any of your own personal recipes you'd love to share, I'll make an open thread for that later. We're just trying to get some general info up to help the newcomers, and/or the really hungry, and have some easy no-stress stuff available.

TIA, guys!

Pretty self-explanatory, but has some awesome keto recipes. He even has a few "magic ratio" recipes that by themselves result in something like a 80/15/5 split or something like that.

Not low-carb, per se, but the Primal Blueprint is low-carb leaning, so most recipes need little if any tweaking.

I don't know if they're all low-carb, but they are sugar-free. They're also grain free, for those so inclined. She does use a fair amount of artificial sweeteners, but her recipes are great for "conventional food" analog recipes for helping convert (or meet in the middle) family members, or for those that do better transitioning via substitution.

Another that isn't low carb, per se, but the recipes are largely sugar-free (any with sugar are from natural sugar sources) and the more carby ones are more obvious (oh look! The recipe uses squash and tubers! Probably on the carby side). They're also simple recipes and usually don't use "exotic" ingredients.

Low-carb and gluten-free. I've gotten some good ideas from here.

mariamindbodyhealth.com/-She seems to be keto-folk like me but she has some good recipes.

There are some really food recipes on here, especially for finding stuff to fill cravings.

Low hanging fruit but since no one mentioned these:

LCD group member(ette?<g>) Alison has some great recipes on her ButterIsNotACarb blog.
tinyurl.com/pvtavk8

And Pinterest.com (might require a "signup" if you're not currently using Pinterest)
has a large and growing number of LC recipes.

While we do stalk various sites for new recipes, for the most part it's the more traditional (not specifically LC) sites like Food Network, Epicurious, etc.

A number of them are including LC recipes these days, but we tend to just take the "standard" recipes for something that looks worth trying and modifying the ingredients as necessary to "make it LC"

Above xfered to LP

So many. Like DD's I've found that a lot of traditional recipes are low carb or easily adaptable to low carb.

My go to for traditional recipes:

Thanks everyone, KIU!

I love Kalyn's Kitchen. She does South Beach, so some of the recipes need to be modified for anyone doing LCHF, but I've found a lot of my standards here!

All above suggestions xferred to LP.
(this line is just to save a little time knowing where we left off, ignore)

Thanks indeed!!! (both to you, BS for starting the thread and to the many contributors)

We've also set up a "B" section in the "Recipe Websites and LCD member recipes" section of the LP.

Given the level of interest in this topic, I'm guessing that group members would also be interested in seeing (and sharing) some of the "home brewed" recipes others are using.

Rather than adding each individual recipe (the list could simply grow so large as to become unmanageable) I'd ask that we get it started this way:

Bacon, if you would start a new discussion topic post ("Post your personal recipes HERE"), or something similar, and as an "open" thread;
ALL LCD'ers feel free to add YOUR recipe suggestions, BUT,
PLEASE limit it to your OWN, original (or modified) recipe, and,
ONE recipe per post with the NAME OF THE RECIPE in ALL CAPS as the first line (will make it easier for folks to "browse" the thread for individual recipes),
Provide ingredients, serving size and number, and nutritional data so members can add it t their food diary, and finally (unless someone can think of what I'm missing),
Include, simple, "step by step" prep instructions, keeping in mind that some members may be relatively "new" to the whole "cooking from scratch" idea,
Add ALL recipes to the new thread Bacon sets up (as opposed to beginning a new thread) - this way, one link in the LP to the thread containing all the recipes is all that will be needed to link to all the recipes and will keep the LP from "ballooning" too much.
If the recipe already exists on your "personal" blog page (or similar), I don't see a problem with linking directly to it (unless others do), but please do so as a "direct" link to the specific recipe you are adding rather than a "general" link to your blog and, as with all recipes to be included, group members only - please.

PS; If anyone finds a "broken" link (or other problems with the LP) - PLEASE let us know (either here or via PM) so it can be repaired.

And, IF we missed one of your links and it's not included in the LP, let us know as well as it most likely was just an oversight during the xfer process (unless it was a duplicate and already on the list or really, really, inappropriate).

ANY and ALL suggestions for changes to the above that might make it a better, or easier to use process PLEASE feel free to suggest.

Thanks for your help.
