So for the past few weeks I've been on a low carb diet and honestly I'm getting tired of my recipes. Does anyone have any tasty low carb diet recipes or know websites? There's only so much salad and chicken I can eat haha.

    Too bad beans are high carb.

    Google or pinterest Paleo and if you don't mind your fat going through the roof, Keto (such tasty delicious looking things).

    I'm doing low carb too and have found (modified recipes I found online) a few recipes I like. One is for low carb cheesecake.
    16 oz cream cheese softened
    2 egg whites
    1 tsp vanilla and lemon juice
    3/8 c Splenda divided
    2tbsp I can't believe it's not butter
    1/4 c almond flour
    1/4 c chopped pecans
    1/4 c unsweetened coconut flakes

    Start with the crust. Preheat oven to 375. Mix almond flour, coconut, chopped pecans, butter and 1/8 c Splenda. Press firmly into pan. Bake until toasted. Cool.
    For filling mix the egg whites, vanilla, lemon juice, remaining 1/4 c Splenda until well incorporated then add to softened cream cheese. Poor into cooled crust. Bake at 350 for 30-45 minutes until the middle is furnish to touch but still jiggly. (Tip-I always add a pan of water to the oven to keep my cheesecake moist)
    It's only 2.7 net carbs per serving! Makes 6 servings.

    Last week I got addicted to pizza 'tacos'. I fry the mozz cheese on both sides and then top with my favorite toppings. you could also just make 'pizza toppings' by layering a dish with meat at the bottom and top with your favorite toppings and bake until the cheese melts.

    I use a copycat pizza hut recipe (not sure how much sugar is in the tomato paste/sauce). It's super easy.

    8oz can of tomato sauce
    1/2 - 1 tsp depending on how your taste it of oregano, basil, marjoram, salt, sugar (optional), and I add a pinch of cayenne pepper (like Domino's). Let it simmer for about 20 minutes.

    If you like Olive Garden try Paleo Zuppa Toscana. I use coconut milk instead of heavy whipping cream.

    I also make the this without the beans and pasta. You may want to cut this back a lot because even half of this makes a ton of soup.

    Broccoli / cauliflower salad---the kind with bacon and shredded cheese in it. Most green vegetables are low-carb. Cottage cheese, nuts, egg salad, shrimp, tuna, any fish, using lettuce leaves as roll-ups. A variation would be to try to do "No sugar / No flour." A similar premise, but gives a person a little more variety in the food choices. It parallels a clean eating eating plan, just cuts out most of the processed foods.

    Instead of chicken, cook shrimp or pork chops.
    Also "crustless pizza."

    I just use a low carbs tortilla she'll for pizzas and my whole family will eat them.
    I also really like zucchini steamed or cooked in garlic infused olive oil with some Italian seasoning. I use it instead of noodles with spaghetti sauce and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

    For breakfast I use two really thin pieces of ham
    Put them in the bottom of a small bowl so they make a cup shape. Crack one egg and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Microwave till egg is just cooked solid. It pops out all together. I place it on a piece of paper towel and eat on the way tob work like a breakfast sandwich. In my microwave it takes 1 min 40 seconds but my microwave is easily 30 years old lol
