7 Low Carb Meals To Kick Off The New Year Right
Chicken Skewers
One of the hardest part when you first try a low carb diet is finding dinner solutions that work! These Chicken Skewers are one of my favorites! Packed with protein and veggies this is a winning dinner! There are a couple of options, you can, of course, grill these kabobs and they will be delicious. If it’s too cold outside, you can also bake these kabobs, or even cook them on a tabletop grill.
Mashed Cauliflower With Sesame Oil
Cauliflower is one of the best sneakiest vegetables out there when you are trying to eat a lower carb diet and this Mashed Cauliflower With Sesame Oil won’t disappoint. This vegetable is seriously a chameleon but can give you that same creamy texture that people drool over with mashed potatoes. No guilt with this cauliflower mash!
Spinach Beef Balls
Here is another great comfort food that you can eat guilt free when you are trying to eat low carb. These Spinach Beef Balls are packed with the good stuff including spinach, ground beef, egg, and onions. This is the perfect dinner meal on a cold night to feel cozy and warm!
Avocado Shrimp Salad
I could literally eat this Avocado and Shrimp salad every day! Shrimp is a fantastic protein to keep in your freezer when you are trying to eat a low carb diet, as it defrosts quickly. Add some shrimp to avocado, and this combo will have you fueled and ready to go! I like this one for lunch, but it also makes a really fun appetizer for a party.
Radish Cauliflower and Carrots Salad
When you’re trying to eat low carb veggies are high on your list. This easy Radish, Cauliflower, and Carrot salad will make an easy lunch or dinner. Radish and cauliflower are both higher on the list of low carb vegetables, and should absolutely be on your plate! Carrots on their own are on the line for carb count, but when combined with the other two veggies will add a smidge of flavor without adding too much carb. I would round this out with a little more protein such as adding sliced lean chicken breast on top.
Coconut Flour Pumpkin Bread With Pepitas
Mmmm, who doesn’t love a quick bread for breakfast, or next to a salad. This cozy Coconut Flour Pumpkin Bread will help you keep your resolution goals in line without feeling like you’re missing out! Coconut flour can be a little finicky to substitute into any old baking recipe, but we’ve worked out the ratios so that this low carb quick bread is absolutely delicious.
Homemade Guacamole With Goat Cheese
Need a quick and easy lunch? This Guacamole with Goat Cheese is super easy to pack in your lunch bag and tastes delicious. Creamy and satisfying, just add cucumbers or bell peppers to dip and you’ve got lunch ready to go. This recipe also makes a beautiful appetizer for a party!
