Snacks are almonds, beef jerky, pickles, or olives. (watch salt though -- all of these are really salty)

Meals are regular meals except without pasta or white potatoes as sides. We substitute low-carb tortillas, mashed cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, spiralized zucchini noodles, or beans/lentils for whatever starch we would have previously served. Sometimes we have sweet potatoes.

Baby bel cheese and veg for snacks. Meals are just meat and veg. Turkey burgers and fresh cut slaw. GriLed or roasted chicken with asparagus or green beans and a green salad etc.

For lunch I made curry chicken salad in lettuce wraps. Baked some chicken breasts with olive oil and tandoori spice, cut it up, tossed it with chopped celery and red grapes, mayo and curry powder and wrapped it in lettuce leaves. It was delicious.

I also eat tuna salad on mini snack peppers cut in half. Lara Bars are good for snacks, they're basically dates and nuts with different spices to make them all taste different. I like pecan pie, pumpkin pie, cashew cookie and chocolate coconut flavors (the chocolate is just cocoa powder).

Atkins has easy frozen entrees.

Lunch meat - turkey, chicken, ham. Tuna. Kippered herring. Raw veggies.

Burgers (no bun), seasoned ground beef, sauteed chicken, baked chicken, omelets (Jimmy Dean has frozen cheese and ham omelets that are low carb). Salads and veggies as sides.

Tonight I'm making low carb yellow squash casserole as my side. Ragu makes a jarred cheese sauce that is low in carbs - I will sometimes serve that over steamed cauli when I need something cheesy.
