Low Carb Cooking
Low Carb Recipes
Some culinary creativity can make the difference between feeling resentfully "diet-deprived" and making a smooth transition to a lifetime of healthy eating habits.
And while there are some pretty good low-carb convenience foods out there, for many of us, "convenience foods" are what got us in trouble in the first place. So while bars, shakes and pre-packaged meals can serve as fillers and emergency foods, they should never be seen as a substitute for healthy, whole foods. The less processed, the better results you can expect. Low carb recipes make your journey to success smoother, so let's get cooking!

A Fresh Idea for Strawberries
Strawberries are often the first fruit we low carbers add back into our daily eating plan and what a great choice they are. Fiber, vitamin C, potassium and even calcium are found in this little powerhouse of a food.
Whether you like your strawberries with whipped cream, over cheesecake or blended into a morning smoothie, they are probably a staple in your low glycemic household. But, as wonderful as all these options are, what else can a hungry low carber do with these declicious ruby jewels? Plenty.

I am not Martha Stewart.
I am not Julia Child.
I'm not even Diane Sawyer watching Wolfgang Puck on Good Morning America. In fact, until I started low carbing, my kitchen was just that room between the den and the bathroom where I kept my beer and my Lean Cuisines. I mean, what would I, a singleton, need with a stove and oven? Everything I could ever want to eat could be nuked, or better yet, delivered.
And then, I became a low carber.
First, I had to become introduced to my kitchen.
Classic Onion Soup

The weather is finally cooling off and the holidays are just around the corner. You know what that means, time to make those favorite soups and stews that you just didn’t bother with during the summer months. One of my favorites? The classic French Onion Soup.
The beauty of this soup is that it’s easy. The only trick is letting the onions brown long enough to increase the depth of flavor in the finished product. Everything else is easy peasy!
So, grab your grandma’s vintage Hull or McCoy ovenware bowls and get ready for a winter treat.
