Low-Carb Recipes

Dishes categorized as low-carb recipes on this website have no (or minimal) grains, starchy vegetables, or fruits that are high in carbohydrates. Instead, you’ll find non-starchy vegetables (here’s a list), animal-based proteins, nuts, seeds, and low-carb fruits.

Depending on your personal carb goals, these recipes may or may not fit your plan. Technically, any food could be worked into a low-carb lifestyle—though higher-carb foods would require very small portions to stay within limits.

If you’re following a very low carb approach (20-50 grams of net carbs per day), often considered a keto diet, you may need to modify some of the recipes below. While some are clearly labeled “keto,” others naturally fit within those guidelines even if the title doesn’t say so.

One common point of confusion when going low-carb is knowing which vegetables are too high in carbs. While some, like rutabaga, fall into a gray area, others are clearly higher in starch. Here are some veggies that don’t align well with a stricter low-carb plan:

  • Potatoes
  • Sweet potatoes and yams
  • Peas
  • Corn
  • Winter squashes (including pumpkin)
  • Parsnips

In my opinion, one of the best parts of low-carb eating—especially for weight loss—is that you don’t have to count calories. For some, simply avoiding higher-carb foods is enough to see results. While it’s not the method I personally used for weight loss, low-carb is considered one of the evidence-based strategies for weight management.

My family enjoys plenty of meals that just so happen to be low in carbs.
Here are a few of our favorites:

  • Air Fryer Buffalo Wings
  • Keto Zucchini Boats with Chorizo
  • 2-Ingredient Deviled Eggs
