    sugar free bread & butter pickles by Vlasic
    sugar free sweet relish Flavorite brand
    sugar free Oregon chai tea from iherb

    So happy to find sugar free relish, it's great for egg salad & coleslaw
    The Oregon chai packets have 5g of carbs each but you could half the pack
    they are pretty sweet.

    I also love cauliflower mashed fauxtatoes, great on top of shepherds pie, even
    fooled my "hates cauliflower" husband!

    Sugar free jello
    Splenda
    Spaghetti Squash - I just used a cup of spaghetti squash as the filler in meatloaf. It was perfect.
    Almond milk - I just used almond milk as a substitute for heavy cream in a low carb pumpkin pie recipe. It worked great. I had to find a sub because I am currently going non dairy for hormonal reasons.

    Healthy Choice wheat bread. It has 5 net carbs per slice. I allow myself no more than 1 slice a day. Also sugar free jello. It is the only sugar free sweet that tastes exactly like the real thing! Those Russell Stover sugar free turtles are pretty good too. Sweet Freedom vanilla almond ice cream bars are scrumptious!!! Only 4 net carbs!! I like the Atkins bars and shakes too.

    I have learned to make some pretty yummy low Carb cheesy dishes too, like Alfredo sauce and broccoli cheese soup. I love fettuccini Alfredo but can't have the noodles so I put it on chicken and broccoli. I was amazed at how easy and quick it is to make.

    Okay now I'm hungry!!!!:huh:

    I absolutely cannot live without Joseph's Low Carb Products. They make a Pita Bread and a Lavash Bread (large flat bread) that is to die for. See stats below for each. I also have been obsessed with spaghetti squash and cauliflower rice.

    Joseph's Flax Oat Brand and Whole Wheat
    Serving 1/2 Lavash (still a very good portion)
    Calories 50
    Total Fat 2g
    Carbs 7 (net carbs 4 per serving, 8 net if you have the whole sheet)
    Dietary Fiber 3
    Sugars 0
    Protein 5g
    I have made delicious flat bread pizzas, taco salad, roll-ups, sandwiches, burritos, tacos, cinnamon and stevia chips... the possibilities are endless. I cannot be with these in my kitchen. The have completely ditched regular bread in favor of this. My husband even loves it and does not mind the substitution. I try not to eat it every day because still has wheat in it but 2-3 time a week I enjoy this product. You can bake this product and it will crisp in the oven just watch carefully because it will go from perfectly brown to burnt in no time.


    Joseph's Flax Oat Bran & whole wheat Pita Bread
    Serving size 1 whole pita
    Calories 60
    Total Fat 2g
    Carbs 8g (4 net carbs for the whole pita)
    Fiber 4g
    Protein 6g
    While I enjoy the lavish bread much more, hands down, I also keep the pita bread around. The pita is great to fill with whatever you want. The pita is very thin and will get soggy so I would suggest keeping the filling separate until you are ready to eat it. Assemble and enjoy. This is a great product as well.

    I bought one of each of the new Atkins frozen meals at my local Walmart. I ate my first one today for lunch, the Crustless Chicken Pot Pie. It was creamy, tasty and chockful of veggies! I can't wait to try the others! I am not easily impressed. These are not "frankenfoods". It was made from real food. Bravo, ATKINS!

    Sugar-free jello is kind of a godsend in helping with giving me a sweet or 2. No word on if it'll stall me, but I like it.

    How can it stall you?? It is low-everything!! And the cherry is sooooo yummy!!

    The ones I purchased are between 4-7 net carbs. They are heavy on the veggies so that is why, but I am happy that they have them!

    Walden Farms... Salad dressings, marinades, syrups, dips... all NO calorie, NO carb, and NO fat!

    *Not everything tastes that great*

    I like the balsamic vinegrette dressing and asian marinade for stir fry

    yes! this saved my life.

    also i found "irresistibles" gluten free croutons that are quite low in carbs, add these, romaine lettuce, walden farms free ceasar dressing and grilled chicken strips= fantastic supper or lunch!

    those lavash and other breads are great, so readily available in so many places.


    where do you get them????

    Utterly amazing pizza dough from the most unlikely source....

    My wife made a pizza using a recipe from a vegan site and I had to be dragged whining and thrashing to try it. I scrunched up my face, closed my eyes, took a bite -- and could not believe it: It was damn near as good as a regular pizza.

    (This way way way beats a flaxseed flour dough we once tried.)

    And it is based on one of my least favorite foods in the world.

    OK - the secret ingredient? Cauliflower. The craziest thing about it? After my half of the pizza I actually nibbled on a few pieces of slightly burnt crust (with no cheese or anything on it) and found that delicious as well. No cauliflower taste at all.

    Here is the recipe website:

    http://greatveganfood.blogspot.com/2012/05/vegan-cauliflower-pizza-crust.html

    Hint: The vegan recipe calls for egg substitute and soy mozzarella, but my wife used real eggs, real cheese, lots of garlic. But on my half I used olive oil rather than carb and sugar-laden pizza sauce. Total carbs in my half of very filling pizza: about 6 grams. This one's a keeper, believe me.

    PS can be a bit tricky to get the dough off the pan (you bake it first before adding toppings) -- so recommend using silpat baking sheet.

    I tried the crustless chicken pot pie as well, LOVED it! Great for the days I don't have time to make my lunch before leaving in the morning for work! It had alot of chicken and veggies! I have found them only at Walmart though. Yummy, I bought one of each of the meals to try as well.
  • Vermont real sticks! I love slim Jim's and this is fantastic. Gluten free, no preservatives, no antibiotics, no carbs (excep BBQ flavor has carbs). I found them at Whole Foods and recently ordered the, directly from maker: http://www.vtsmokeandcure.com/real-sticks.html. A little pricey but is worth having a grab and go snack.

    Ronzoni smart taste pasta. Only 180 calories per serving and 34 grams of net carbs (5 grams of fiber). The amount of carbs does seem high but for pasta, it's pretty low.

    I finally found a store that sells Quest Bars! I love them! I have tried a few flavors, Chocolate Brownie, Cinnamon Roll, Coconut Cashew and one other that excapes me... Once you get used to the texture they are great as a grab and go snack. Very little artificial sweeteners, loads of fiber, and healthy proteins. Who else has used them as a back up plan or regularly use them?

    I recently discovered quest bars! I was never a fan of bars before because of all the weird ingredients. I get mine on amazon!

    A lot of the low carb products don't seem to be available here in the UK so my lifesavers are diet coke and Atkins bars (which I can't find in supermarkets for some reason and have to go all the way to bloody Boots for). I really want some DaVinci syrup though, it sounds like it'd be divine in my morning coffee!

    Starfires- Here you go :

    http://www.lowcarbmegastore.com/

    This website is great and sells a lot of the low carb products that are available in the US, including every Da Vinci syrup flavour under the sun!!

    The also do the Joseph's Pitta breads, Lavash flatbreads & tortillas and the 'Flat out' Flatbreads.

    As well as sweets, chocolates, peanut butter, jam, honey, sauces, and low carb spice mixes.


    WHOOO HOOO Thanks Laura, I live in Europe also and needed a on line store to purchase USA Low Carb Food.

    Shirataki Noodles...

    Not fond of the Tofu versions: http://www.shiratakinoodles.net/

    But like the brand JFC version of the noodles: http://www.asianfoodgrocer.com/product/jfc-white-shirataki-noodles-16-0-oz

    Im the opposite, I LOVE the tofu version - especially when making a beef stroganoff or a Czech style chicken paprikash...

    I'm a new fan of Shiratake noodes especially the Naysoya brand. I've used the various shapes for a variety of recipes including a veggie stir-fry w/shrimp & beef, Chicken fettucine & beef stroganoff. Soo yummy. My secret is after the rinse, draiin & dry then allow noodles to sit in 1-2 tbsp College Inn lower sodium broth w/minced garlic & garlic powder to your taste specification, pan fry until liquid is absorbed then prepared as desired in whatever the recipe.
