    Where can you buy Shirataki noodles?

    Ive been on low carb for a week. Ive just kept it simple by sticking to meat, cheese, eggs, and atkins snacks. I too could benefit from some recipes.

    Do you have a pinterest account? If not you need to get one! Pinterest.com Once you do that you can search low carb recipes and start to follow as many of the post as you want! It's an awesome tool!

Honey mustard chicken, bacon cheddar burgers, 7 layer salad(my favorite salad to this day!), low carb pizza, SOS, waffles, PB cookies, ect ect

    atkins snacks (batrs and shakes) are crap, you really should avoid them.


    to OP:
    google 'low carb recipes'
    you will get tons of results!

    i personally stick to grilled protein and sauteed veggies mainly. lots of salads

    my favorite thing to eat is low carb chicken parm

    bake off a spaghetti squash.
    dip chicken breast in egg wash and almond flour.
    cook (i fry mine in coconut oil)
    serve with red sauce, cheese and spag squash.


    another is cream of zucchini and broccoli soup

    cook an onion with some butter (or bacon fat)
    add in zucchini and broc stems
    add chicken stock. when its mostly cooked add broccoli/cauli if you want.
    add cream. don't overcook the broc!


    those are 2 pretty easy super quick ones and if you have the spag squash all prepared they are very quick.

    I have been drinking the shakes for a month now- religiously. Actually picked up 3 packs of them the other day, then got half way around the store and put them down. They aren't the greatest- and they AREN'T cheap... trying other sources of low carb now!
