Could someone maybe pass along their low carb vegetarian menu - for those who are vegetarian? My brother has been put on Atkins but really wants to be able to go back to being a vegetarian...so I was hoping maybe someone could give me a sample menu to pass along to him to help him out a little.

Thanks!

Sheyla,
I responded to your question in the Atkins Ongoing forum.

Life deserves a treat now and again, but life also deserves being healthy[with required disipline] to make it worth living!

I'm also interested in a vegetarian diet that is low in carbs.
My wife is a veggie and it would be great to eat the same meals with her.

Following the Atkins program as a vegetarian is pretty well impossible. However, with some other approaches to low carbing, I understand that doing it as vegetarian is challenging, but not impossible. Here are a couple of books that might help you get started.

The Protein-Powered Vegetarian: From Meat to Vegetable Protein, by Bo Sebastian.

The Schwarzbein Principle Vegetarian Cookbook, by Diana Schwarzbein, M.D., Nancy Deville and Evelyn Jacob Jaffe.

The Soy Zone, by Barry Sears, Ph.D. (In this book Sears offers additional recipes for soy protein products.)

HTH!
