Simply cook up any low carb vegetable from the above list and then fry up a portion of grated cheese. Crack a couple of eggs over the cheese then serve with the cooked vegetables.

Lunches are usually a low-carb diet salad of some kind, my favorites are the above pictured cheesy 4 ingredient broccoli salad or tuna salad.

Our favorites are egg roll in a bowl, yogurt roasted chicken, cauliflower mac and cheese and the above pictured broccoli casserole.

You could make the above pictured chocolate mousse with cream cheese, hot chocolate, strawberry cheesecake mousse, lemon ricotta mousse or strawberry milkshake.
