First off, I apologize if this is a duplicate thread as I do not have the time at this moment to search for answers.

Second, I was wondering what are some good meals to make that are very high in protein and low in carbs that is good for a diabetic other than plain chicken and broccoli. There have been a lot of family gatherings, so I'm looking at making something for that will feed around 10-12 people. The easier, the better. I'm just looking to help my family out, for a least a meal or two.

Thank you in advance.

    How about a turkey breast with green beans?

    Flank steak (marniated) with asparagus.

    I like to grill flank steaks or sirloins, slice and serve over a bed of mixed greens (argula, spinach, baby leaf lettuce) with a balsamic vinegerette (love pomegranted white balsamic w/scallions, stone mustard and evoo).

    shrimp, tomato, okra, pepper, onion gumbo over riced cauliflower (instead of rice). Google a low carb rue if a small amount of flour is still too much.

    ETA: use any kind of protein you want-chicken, beef, pork, smoked sausage, etc

    Tuna salad lettuce wraps

    Pork chops and asparagus or garlic roasted broccoli (its super YUM!)

    Jamie Eason's turkey meatloaf (google the recipe) & cucumber/tomato salad (sliced cucumbers, sliced tomatoes, italian dressing)

    Jamie Eason's eat clean stuffed green peppers

    Crockpot roast beef and carrots--- fill the crockpot with lots of carrots and the beef

    baked salmon, tilapia or swai fish

    large salads with hard boiled eggs, slivered almonds, tomatoes, avocado, cucumber, bell pepper. I use Olive Garden brand salad dressing... ;)
