Im so bored with salads, what are you eating low carb?

 

I try to keep my calories under 1500. More than enough food if youre eating loads of veggies.

I make the 'Bites' in all shapes and forms from EggFace's website.   They're basically mini-quiches.   They're a staple of mine since they can be done in a ton of different ways and flavors. 

I also do wraps with low-carb tortillas.   Again, by using all sorts of fillings.

String Cheese and Yogurt are my snacks that I usually have around.

Read back over some of the postings here.  I post daily, and so do some others.  I eat low carb every day, and rarely eat salads because I'm not a "salad type", but I do love my vegetables.  I've lost 30 lbs since starting here on Feb. 26.  I also work out almost daily on my recumbent bike. 

You can glean several ideas from what everyone eats by reading their posts.  Of course, it's a matter of personal preference, but I've found many food ideas here.  Give it a try, and good luck to you :)

I meant to add that low carb doesn't have to mean salads all the time.  I eat the way I intend to eat from now on....not just to "diet" to get the regain off, but eating the way I want to eat even after the regain is gone.  It's healthy and I feel wonderful, but I could use more fruits.  Fortunately, summer berries are in season and lower in carbs.  Can't wait for the cantaloupes and honeydews!

I eat a lot of protein bars, shakes and chicken.  Anything green is good, nuts and fruits.

I eat lots of proteins and veggies and am trying to have one serving of low glycemic fruit and one complex carb a day.
Breakfast is usually coffee or almond mik with protein powder.
Although I do love salads I eat proteins and veggies in lots of different ways...I eat veggies raw, roasted, sautéed, grilled, in chopped salads with feta cheese, with different dressings and dips. I modify recipes. I eat what my family is eating but skip the carb (spaghetti sauce no spaghetti, stir fry no rice unless I want some brown rice, taco salal no shell, etc) We grill lots of different meats ... Pork, chicken, steak, burgers, shrimp. I eat natural nut butters, eggs in many forms, cheeses, Greek yogurt. There are SO many options.
