Recipes and Menus

No matter what way of eating works best for you, it's going to be important to find appealing food ASAP. I'm trying to provide resources for cooks and non-cooks alike, although I think it's a good idea to at least try some simple recipes yourself - that way you can make the kind of food most appealing to you. No matter what the "diet", there are ways to adapt most recipes, and I will also provide the principles to do this.

NEW!! I am now the Low Carb Diets Guide at About.com. Check out my low carb recipes and low carb menus on that site. I add more each week.

My Recipes - These are my own favorite recipes. They are all sugar-free, gluten-free (no wheat, rye, barley, or oats), and at least moderately low in carbohydrates.

My Food and Cooking Blog - I regularly blog about my own food and cooking, plus obesity, nutrition, and related topics.
