I made this last night for dinner. I wasn't specifically trying for low carb but it is.
2 lb ground turkey
2 boxes chicken broth (8 cups?)
1 onion
4 garlic cloves
1 c chopped celery
1 c chopped carrots
1 carton of sliced mushrooms
1 tblsp olive oil
1 zucchini
1 summer squash
1 c of red/purple cabbage
1 c of fresh spinach
1/2 c of brown rice
spices
1-2 tsps curry powder
a few shakes of parsley (or fresh if you have it)
ground fresh black pepper
1 tsp of red pepper
1 or 1.5 tbsp of white pepper
salt if you want
Saute onion, garlic, celery, carrots and mushrooms in the oil until tender
Saute the turkey separately until pink is gone
Add turkey, broth and the rest of the ingredients and simmer for 40 minutes until the rice is done
You could add the spinach at the end if you want it less cooked.
it was peppery and yummy, filling, low calorie and low carb and healthy0 -

Artichoke Lemon Dip Recipe
Prep time: 10 minutes
Add to shopping list
Ingredients
1 14-ounce (400 g) can of artichoke hearts, packed in water, drained
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup (25 g), packed, grated Parmesan cheese
1 Tbsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic, minced (about 1 teaspoon)
1/2 teaspoon fresh black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
8 ounces (225 g) cream cheese, room temperature
3 to 4 Tbsp lemon juice
Method
1 Put the drained artichoke hearts, parsley, Parmesan, lemon zest, garlic, and salt and pepper in a food processor. Pulse a few times until a paste forms. You should still be able to make out bits of parsley and lemon, so don't over-process it.
2 Place the cream cheese in a medium sized bowl. Add the artichoke parsley mixture and the lemon juice. Stir until well blended. Add more salt, pepper, and lemon juice to taste. Garnish with a few fresh leaves of parsley or ribbons of lemon zest.
Yield: Makes about 2 cups of dip.
Serve with raw veggies!! Enjoy!!0 -

Now that it's summertime in Ontario, I like simple things like bbq'd chicken thighs, lamb spiedini, sausages, burgers (skip the bun obviously or just eat half) and whatever veggie side (salad, asparagus, beets, pretty much anything goes here)0
