I'm a vegetarian while the rest of my family eats meat. I need some different recipes for things I can make, but I'm trying to cut down on carbs. Can anyone help me?
Since it's incredibly difficult to avoid all carbs, try whole wheat products instead. They're high in fiber and taste just as good, in my opinion. You could make whole wheat lasagna, whole wheat maccaroni, or any pasta dish just by substituting with whole wheat goods (found next to the other pastas in the aisle). You could even buy whole wheat flour and try making your own pizza with just cheese and veggies!

-Boiled eggs [limit to egg whites if you want]
-Cheese ravioli
-Cream of Mushroom soup
-Mac & Cheese
-Cereal
-PB & J from Smuckers [try to limit as PB is bad]
-Low fat yogurt
-Veggie bites
-Spinach nuggest
-Boca Vegan patties [or anything from their brand]
-Vegetarian patties
-Fruits & Veggies
Just make sure that when you're going to try new foods, read the ingredients! They might have chicken/beef broth, gelatin [animal fat], and things like that in there--like Pop Tarts frosting, cup noodles, Cheerios cereal bar, etc. If you want more advice, inbox me =) [ ductape_n_roses's advice column | Ask ductape_n_roses A Question ]
