Crack Slaw http://www.food.com/recipe/crack-slaw-low-carb-434863 even my non-keto hubby loves it.
I also bought a cream whipper recently https://www.petersofkensington.com.au/Public/MasterChef-Cream-Whipper.aspx - I make up paper coffee cups with blueberries in the bottom, about 200ml lite jelly poured over them. I keep these in the fridge and have one after dinner each night with whipped cream.
Prawns, some green curry paste, some coconut milk, zucchini grated or zoodled, garlic and stock powder to taste - this is our Sunday go to.
My hubby makes low carb easy. He cooks dinner because he gets home first. And he makes a coffee with butter/cream for me every morning like a champ. He does not eat low carb (during the day) but once I told him "any meat, some cauli/broccoli/mushrooms/zucchini on the side - oh and check the packet for carbs if you buy sausages" he cooks low carb like a pro.7 -

Quick rundown -- cook a spaghetti squash, toss the meat into a casserole dish (or crock pot insert), toss in a block of cream cheese and/or a cup or two of sour cream, toss in about 2 cups of whatever not-cream cheeses you have on hand, saute an onion and a few cloves of garlic and toss them in, add some salt and pepper (I
white pepper). Mix it all up and toss in the oven at 350 for 30 minutes. Try not to inhale it all at once. 
What is your favorite type of meat to use with this casserole?
Not meat as in hamburger, meat as in the meat of the squash. The part inside the skin that (in this case) turns into spaghetti-like strings that aren't the goop with seeds.0 -

That may be the case, but adding real meat like maybe ground sausage sounds like it would be good in this.1 -

It's pretty thick/heavy on its own. Adding a meat into it would be rather challenging. Keep in mind that spaghetti squash is more akin to angel hair pasta as opposed to mashed potatoes or whatever.0 -
I make something similar to the mousse listed above... but mine tastes like a wendy's frosty. I make homemade whip cream from HWC and some vanilla extract, then add in some (previously prepared) SF Chocolate pudding, in basically a 1:1 ratio of pudding to HWC.... toss in the freezer for about an hour, and its so YUM. If you're not a frosty fan, it works well as just a chocolate mousse if you don't freeze it, too.
I also have made a SF cheesecake mousse with cream cheese, HWC, lemon extract, vanilla extract, and stevia.2 -
When I first started low carb, I found this website helpful...

Her pizza topping casserole has been great for me, given that pizza is definitely one of my pitfalls.3 -

Sugar Free Jello. I know. I see eyes rolling. I acquired a binge habit in 2015 that is thankfully over. I hope. I still keep sugar free jello prepared in my refrigerator though don't have need for it so often. Rarely. I'll take secretly (used to be) eating a pint of red-dye and artificial sweetener ANYDAY over hundreds/thousands of calories of sugar in massive quantities of ice cream.
I ate sugar free jello by the pint for a while. It changed my journey.6 -

No eye rolls here, we have recently discovered what a great treat sugar free jello is. We top it off with a squirt of redi whipped cream. Doesn't hurt DH's BS, and I get a fruity tasting treat. We normally use stevia for sweetening, but the little bit of whatever is in Jello doesn't seem to hurt either of us.1 -
Sugar free jello is .... bad?!?! Sorry, Nuh Uh. YUMMIE 4

Definitely fathead pizza! And zoodles and cauliflower rice - I know those aren't recipes, but they are wonderful substitutions that help me not miss real pasta or rice. 5

By squirt you mean the whole can, right? Cause that's what we mean by "a squirt" >_>

Great recipes for sweets and snacks - that way rather than indulging in a carb bomb soaked in sugar, I can have something a bit more friendly to the LC WoE.
I also love sugar free jello - it's fantastic.0 -
Here's my IF special - it's helped a lot, but tends toward the bland side.....
Actually, getting off the LF "carb trail to diabetes" led me to renewed romances with butter and olive oil, and sizzling new relationships with avocados and coconuts.
