I'm thinking you may want to check out the South Beach website and take a peek at the recipes.

Wanda, do you have a Kogers in your area? Krogers sells a carb master yogurt. It is very good and has 12 gms of protein and only 3 carbs.

Hi Wanda, What kind of foods are you looking for? I have lots of recipes.. Soups, chicken, beef, vegies, quiches, desserts, etc.  What have you been eating that you need to cut your carbs? Do you use protein powders at all??  Terry

Thank you for all of your responses.  I will look into the South Beach.  No Krogers,  I can only wish.   I eat only Chicken,  Turkey and Fish.  No red meat or pork.  I would love to get some recipes for soup, main course, desserts, quiches.  i used to eat yogurt and the only one I can find has 14g of carbs  even the cottage cheese I use has carbs.  Thank you for all of you suggestions.

I get my low carb recipes from this message board (of course) and other websites like allrecipes.com, lowcarbfriends.com among others.  You can google "low carb recipes".  I also love love love the cookbooks from Dana Carpender.  She has several low carb cookbooks out there that are in plain english.......or simple terms I should say.  She has so many great recipes and I just ordered another one of her books. 

Also, the CarbMaster yogurt is definitely good (as someone else mentioned) and would help you keep your yogurt.

Good luck and please ask us any questions you may have!!!!!
