thundersweet Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 (edited) I have got to get on the ball. I do best with super low carb, but get so frustrated planning dinner. My family is so tired of grilled meat/veggies. lol Tonight is grilled chicken (big surprise), broccoli, tomato/mozzarella, and bread with olive oil/balsamic for dipping (kids). Tomorrow, I am making something easy with shrimp. Please help me get excited to cook for my family again.

ILiveInFlipFlops Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 :bigear: We're in a rut here too. We eat a lot of burgers with various cheeses and toppings (bacon, avocado, etc.). I'm making chicken pot pie filling tonight, though that does have carrots and 1/3 C of corn starch in it. What about soups? Our standard chicken soup has no carbs other than the carrots, and I add some separately cooked noodles for the kids. I made a sausage soup the other night that was totally delish. I need more low-carb soup recipes myself--everyone here prefers thicker soups, which usually involve potatoes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer in MI Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 My dh eats low-carb. I still cook "normal" foods for our family and dh just skips the carb. So, if we do burgers, he skips the buns, but will have more of a salad with the burger on top. I do roast chicken about once/week. I usually have a side of rice or potatoes. Dh skips those. Maybe your family would like that kind of cooking better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
