    If you have a favorite dish, just search the web for a low carb version. That's how I came across the jambalaya recipe.

    Question. Are you just doing low carb or are you doing KETO? It makes a difference for the recipes. Also, if you are doing low carb, are you eating clean. You need to be specific or you will not get what you are looking for. :smile:

    Remember if you are doing a ketogenic diet, you want very low carb, moderate protein and high fat. Healthy fats are as important as low carbs. So no low carb, low fat..,doesn’t work.

    Hello All! You all have some great recipes posted! I have been doing paleo/low carb for 6 weeks... I have not gained nor lost weight... frustrated.
    I am having wine a few nights a week ... but I’m running and working hard with a caloric level under 2000. Any tips? Thanks so much.

    I’ve been a low carb ketosis diet for a week now
    We use almond flour when we bake. Cook lettuce wrap burgers with a sunny side up egg. Chicken salads there are salad yogert dressings that only have 1 carb and tast great. You can cook a almond flour pizza taste amazing 2000+ calories less than 50 carbs great for a movie or fun afternoon, you got zero sugar cherry coke tast like heaven. And Breyers reduced sugar ice cream yes ice cream with 13 carbs but as long as you keep a high fiber diet you subtract your carbs from fiber intake to find your net carb intake for the day

    Keto96...finally some good sounding recipes...will you share how to make/recipe for the pizza crust and pancakes!!

    Here’s a great low carb crock pot recipe:

    4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
    1 pkg taco seasoning
    1 jar salsa (I use a black bean and corn salsa)

    Place chicken in crockpot, sprinkle over taco seasoning, add salsa. Cook on high 3-4 houra then shred chicken with two forks. Delicious!!

    I also add a can of black beans but you can omit those to save carbs.

    I make a Cauliflower Lasagna that is really good....Chop up a head of cauliflower and toss it with a little olive oil and salt and pepper. Roast it for about 20 minutes, then remove from oven. Meanwhile, brown 1 lb ground meat (I use beef or turkey), and add 2 cups of your favorite spaghetti sauce. Mix well. Grease a 9x9 dish and layer a little bit of the meat sauce in the bottom. Then add all of the cauliflower, then the rest of the meat sauce, then one cup of whole milk ricotta cheese spread evenly across the top. Last, add 1-2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese. Bake at 375 for about 25-30 minutes until heated through, then turn up heat to 400 for 5 minutes to brown the cheese. Super yummy! I use this for meal prep dinners and it reheats really well also! 7binfs7xzcpb.jpg

    That looks really good. Banking that in my memory.

    I'm going to steal that but use part skim ricotta (or skip if I can't find it) and only one cup of mozzarella to lower the calories per volume. This looks delicious.

    Instead of ricotta try low fat cottage cheese

    I don't have access to cottage cheese, and I only rarely find any low fat kind of cheese. I keep telling myself I need to make my own from skim milk but I'm lazy. That's 100-200 calories I can do without, though. A 9 inch pan is a 4 person kind of pan, so that's 600 calories per portion (using one cup of mozzarella and very little oil), which is reasonable but sometimes I want to leave calories for a snack.

    @amusedmonkey ....You can actually get 6 pretty hearty servings from this dish when you use a 9x9 dish. Usually, we only get 4 servings from this size as well, but this recipe is really hearty and filling, so you might try a smaller portion and see if it works for you.
