Since its publication over 15 years ago, 500 Low-Carb Recipes has become a classic in the low-carb community, earning author Dana Carpender the affectionate moniker “low-carb queen” from her fans. The book is now a bestseller, with over half a million copies sold.
 
Low-carb cooking has evolved. A decade ago, low-carb menus relied on ingredients like artificial sweeteners, unhealthy vegetable oils, protein additives, and processed foods from grocery store shelves, like low-carb branded snack bars and packaged meals. Today’s low-carb cooking is influenced by larger food movements, such as clean eating; farm-to-table ingredients; higher fat ratios, thanks to the popularity of ketogenic diets; and less stigmatization of foods that have substantial inclusion in a low-carb diet, namely animal foods and saturated fat due to the growth of the Paleo and traditional foods movements. The New 500 Low-Carb Recipes is the beloved cookbook updated for today’s low-carb movement.

Welcome to Low-Carbohydrate Variety!

Over 125 New and Revised Recipes

I can’t tell you how to plan your menus. I can, however, give you a few pointers on what you’ll find here that may make your meal planning easier.

There are a lot of one-dish meals in this book— main dish salads, skillet suppers that include both meat and vegetables, and hearty soups that are a full meal in a bowl. I include these because they’re some of my favorite foods, and to my mind, they’re about the simplest way to eat. I also think they lend a far greater variety to low-carb cuisine than is possible if you’re trying to divide up your carbohydrate allowance for a given meal among three or four different dishes.

If you have a carb-eating family, you can appease them by serving something on the side, such as whole-wheat pitas split in half and toasted, along with garlic butter, a tortilla or two, rice, or a baked potato or sweet potato. (Of course, I don’t recommend that you serve them canned biscuits, Tater Tots, or Minute Rice, but that shouldn’t surprise you.)

Meals you never dreamed you could have on a low-carb diet, including: Stewed Chicken with Moroccan Seasonings Feta-Spinach Salmon Roast Cajun Chicken Salad Coconut-Almond Flax Bread Asian Ginger Slaw Steak Au Poivre with Brandy Cream Pork Chops with Garlic and Balsamic Vinegar Zucchini-Carrot Cake
