I LOVE TO COOK!! But cooking low carb is cramping my style. Any recommendations for cookbooks, web pages, or maybe just some of your favorite dinner dishes??

    Try an egg bake with veggies and/or meat. I just make one with green peppers, cottage cheese, egg substitute, and turkey sausage. My family loved it. Healthy and filling.

    I replace the carb with veggies. So double veggies and meat. It's good and not rocket science.

    Not sure how low you want your carbs, but here's a great super low-carb website with 101 recipes. http://authoritynutrition.com/101-healthy-low-carb-recipes/

    I've tried the oopsie rolls when I was really into low carb and they're a good alternative to scones. light and fluffy, and you can top it with sugar free Balance strawberry jam and a bit of whipped double cream for a nice sweet pudding :)

    I love my South Beach cookbooks! Tried a new easy recipe last night which was a big hit. Just cut a tomato in half, put it under the broiler cut side up for about 8-10 minutes. Then add 1 T. of pesto sauce and grill for another couple of minutes. Awesome! I can hardly wait for summer tomatoes to start coming in!

    Try some of these:
    ruled.me
    cavemanketo.com
    ibreatheimhungry.com
    wickedstuffed.com
    ketodietapp.com
    nobunplease.com
    nomnompaleo.com (paleo and keto sometimes intersect - I use the paleo sites for meat ideas)

    ...and there's also the keto group on Reddit.
