I am doing a slow carb diet for 30 days. I can't have sugar, fruits, breads. Need meat, vegetable, bean dishes. Please help as I really need to lose 20lbs. Had red beans for dinner, and chicken teriaki for lunch.

Your grill is your friend.

One of my go-to low carb meals is boneless/skinless chicken thighs marinated in Sriracha, rice vinegar, soy sauce and a bit of oil. Marinate for a day, grill, rest, chop, toss pieces in resting juices, eat.

Also, bib lettuce works well make wraps of grilled meat - skirt or flank steak seasoned for fajitas; make wrap with meat, cheese and sour cream.

I did the greens faces diet about a year ago. Lost 15 lbs in 15 days w/ no exercise.

Pretty Simple:

1.)You can eat it if it is or was green.

2.)You can eat it if it had a face or would have had a face (ie eggs).

3.)That's it

Pretty much a low carb, fresh ingredient diet/lifestyle, made real simple for us dummies.

Black Beans with Cumin and Oregano

Chickpea Salad

White Beans with Tasso

I eat a slow carb diet, this is what I eat daily:

Breakfast: 2 eggs sauteed in ghee, half cup of black beans prepared as above.

Lunch: Salmon filet (seared in pan (see alton brown method)), mixed veggies (carrots, tomatoes, celery)

Dinner: Protein (Chk breast, roast of some sort, etc), salad with homemade vinaigrette.

Here's the recipe for vinaigrette I use: French Vinaigrette

More recipes:
Baked chicken with lentils

Lentils with Garlic and Tomatoes

Wife is doing the same......here's a recipe that is very good. We make it even when not doing low carb....

Weight Watcher’s Chili

½ lb. lean ground turkey (I usually use 1lb.)
1 small onion diced
1 cup celery diced
1 med bell pepper diced
1 med yellow squash diced
1 med zucchini diced
1 – 28 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 – 15 oz. can black beans
1 pkg chili seasoning mix
1 – 12 oz. can low-sodium low-fat beef broth

Brown turkey and onions in pan sprayed with Pam. Add remaining ingredients (don’t drain the beans, the juice adds falvor)
Add cook for 30-40 minutes until vegetables are tender.

1 cup=1 point

This is from Weight Watchers, but I use 1 pound of lean ground beef instead of ground turkey.
And I use the spicy chili seasoning mix, but only because I like spicy food.


Also, consider making a big soup. We had blackened catfish (done outdoors) and veggies last night which is another good alternative

If you like Blue Cheese dressing, Marie's has a zero sugar added Chunky Blue Cheese. Albertsons keeps theirs in the refridgerated section with all the pre-cut salad stuff. Very low carb and tastes great.
