Im looking for some yummy, simple low carb recipes. Also, so confused about good carbs and bad carbs!

    Good carbs = fruit & veggies
    Bad carbs = pasta, breads, beans, cakes, chips etc.

    Simple recipes =

    Some form of real protein (steak, chicken, bacon, seafood), steamed veggies and a touch of cheese, wrapped in romaine leaves, or stuffed into another veggies.

    Think zucchini/eggplant boats. You could do a chicken enchilada stuffed zucchini boat, or a lamb, feta, olive stuffed eggplant.

    I like to take whole romaine leaves and make BTL "tacos" with them, or use them in place of taco shells when eating Mexican.

    Sometime it's as easy as putting bites on a stick...tomato, mozzarella, basil skewers, fruit and cheese skewers...

    Lastly, check out www.chowstalker.com for more mouthwatering primal-ized recipes. Good luck!
