So, some of you may have started on a low carb diet as a new years resolution and are starting to get sick of eating the same old things. Or you are like me, someone who goes on and off low carb diets for maintenance, and just need some new recipes to keep things interesting.
So I will start here is one of my favorite low carb recipes:
Broccoli and Cauliflower Salad
1 head of cauliflower, chopped
equivalent amount of broccoli, chopped
1 red onion, diced finely
1 package of bacon fried and crumbled
1/2 c. sunflower seeds
Dressing
1c. Mayo
1/2 c. Splenda
2 T. red wine vinegar
1 T. sour cream
Mix together then stir into salad. This recipe makes quite a bit, but I have found it keeps well in the refrigerator for several days, and actual tastes better after the dressing has had time to sit on the salad for awhile.

This one isnt exactly low carb, but it's low GI, very healthy and a quick substantial meal, particularly well suited to coming home on a weeknight and doing a 1 pot, 30 minute meal.
Chicken And Mushroom Soup
Ingredients
* 6 cups chicken stock
* Dried Pasta (I've found penne is best)
* 200g sliced button mushrooms
* 2 carrots
* 2 single chicken breast fillets, trimmed and thinly sliced
* salt and cracked black pepper
* chilli flakes to taste
* 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
Method
1. Place chicken stock in a large saucepan over medium-high heat and add pasta. Simmer for 2 minutes, then add mushrooms and carrots and cook for another 5 minutes.
2. Add chicken and chilli flakes, bring back to boil and cook until pasta is ready. Season with salt and pepper and stir in parsley. Serve immediately.
Edit to add the actual title of the recipe!
