What happens when you combine two LC-Foods snack packs - Chocolate Chip & Almond & Chocolate Chips & Toasted Coconut? Something meg-delicious! - Chocolate, Almond & Toasted Coconut LC-Snack Pack by LC Foods

Planning low carb meals is all about flexibility. You have to think outside the box and be willing to make modifications to suit your own personal needs. For example, this evening's meal is centered on Low-Carb Gluten-Free Citrus Chicken Salad, which is something that both low carbers and non-low carbers should find appealing.

Low-Carb Gluten-Free String Bikini Zucchini Recipe. Not only did it taste good, but the thin strips of zucchini added a nice textural element to the dinner plates.

LC Foods sent me a package of 3 LC-NY Style Plain Bagels. The bagels were fresh and looked like real bagels. The first few ingredients are wheat protein isolates, resistant wheat starch, flaxseed meal, olive oil, and vital wheat gluten. These ingredients give the bagels their look, smell and feel. The sweeteners used are organic stevia rebaudiana and natural lo han guo monk fruit which combined helps give the bagel a slightly sweet taste. A great treat for low carbers looking to have an occasional bagel.

There are times when preparing a meal complete with all the side dishes just seems overwhelming. It's times like this that I go for a main dish salad. I get all my veggies and my proteins in one dish. This means less preparation, less clean up, and more me time. Because I don't care to spend all my time in the kitchen, I usually prepare my chicken ahead of time and freeze it so all I need to do is thaw it. This Lemon Garlic Chicken Main Dish Salad Recipe is one of favorites. So enjoy your meal and some quiet time to yourself!

Chocolate Chips & Toasted Coconut Low-Carb LC-Snack Pack by LC Foods. The toasted coconut has a tropical nutty taste that doesn't overpower the sugar-free chocolate chips - it enhances them! Even though it is sugar-free, it still has a slightly sweet taste that is not bitter at all.

You’ll love the tenderness of this Low-Carb Gluten-Free Lemon Lime Chicken Breasts Recipe. The tenderness is due to the lime juice and seasoning. It is so juicy you'll want to serve it often! Serve it with a salad, or slice up the chicken and serve it on top of the salad.

Low Carb Comfort Food Scramble For Two is a great Low-Carb Gluten-Free breakfast for dinner recipe. Eggs for dinner are particularly good when you're crunched for time or for when the food budget for the week is shot.

Dana's Low-Carb Gluten-Free No-Sugar Ketchup Redux. My most-published recipe has been my ketchup, appearing in most of my cookbooks. But since the last time I published it, I discovered I like it better made with tomato sauce than with tomato paste – it’s less likely to separate. So here you go! Feel free to double this if you’re going to use it as an ingredient in a barbecue sauce or meat loaf or something.

Low-Carb Mustard Butter Flank Steak Recipe. Flank and skirt steaks are my favorites. I particularly like flank steak because it tends to be moist, full of flavor, and chewy. Not tough (unless you overcook it) - chewy. I like the fact that it takes more time to work my way though a piece of flank steak. It makes me feel like I'm getting more chew for my buck.
