Low carb, vegetable heavy meals with meat

- pot roast or turkey breast (slow cooker works well), with carrots/potatoes and green veg
- stir fries (various), cauliflower rice for him, regular rice for the rest of us
- tacos!- he eats his on low carb tortillas or makes a taco salad
- burgers or grilled chicken sandwiches- he eats his bunless with lots of toppings and a lettuce wrap
- chili (lots of low carb recipes out there)
- breaded chicken cutlets with sides..for the breading on his I use crushed pork rinds or wisps
- pizza. I make his crustless in a small Pyrex, or on a FlatOut low carb wrap in oven
- fajitas- sheet pan recipes are SUPER easy, lots of lettuce and toppings he likes on the side
- chicken parm with zoodles for DH
- chicken noodle soup- I add noodles for us and shredded CABBAGE for him at the end (tastes great actually)
- steak salads are a big favorite. Lots of great recipes out there to make special. I serve kids other sides with.

In all cases above, he knows what he can eat, and eats what he can. I serve the kids (and sometimes myself) a quick starch if needed - rice, baked potato, rolls with butter etc.

If we are having something he truly cannot eat (rare) I keep Buffalo wings in the freezer. They are actually really good made in the oven. He eats with celery and dip etc and loves it.

He also loves to grill and often makes the cuts of meat/fish he likes and I just handle sides. He makes enough for his own lunch leftovers etc.



Not Op but thank you for this. Super helpful!
