Example Low Carb Day: 3 Meals & A Snack – 19 Net Carbs, 78% Fat (Keto/LCHF)

It’s a cold breezy day here in Tennessee so I’m thinking of making a nice hot low carb pasta dish this afternoon. 🙂

I’m not sure how it will turn out, but I’ve made low carb pasta recipes before that were great, so I’m hopeful!

The meatballs recipe at that link is GREAT. Definitely try that one sometime. I included ideas for “veggie pasta” using zoodles or other vegetables as the base instead of low carb pasta.

I had a very simple day yesterday, so I wanted to share my low carb meal diary with you so you can see how easy it is to eat low carb, and also to meet all your macros…

My Low Carb Meals on Tuesday

I had cheesy eggs for breakfast with a little salt & ground pepper. It’s 3 eggs scrambled in real butter with colby jack cheese – which I cubed off the block.

For lunch I made a bowl of “low carb cereal” with 30 grams of raw pecan halves, 1/4 cup of Daisy brand cottage cheese, 3 servings (75 grams) of Chunky Musli mix, and 4 strawberries:

I mentioned in yesterday’s low carb food diary that I had some leftover grilled chicken, and a caesar side salad from take-out the night before.

I heated up the chicken, added a serving of Spicy Chili Pili Nuts, and called it dinner. 🙂 Pili Nuts are HUGE and the Spicy Chili flavor adds a nice kick – plus a soft buttery crunch to a salad. YUM!:)

Then late last night I decided to enjoy the ChocoRite Chocolate Crispy Caramels that came in my November Keto Krate box. 🙂 DELICIOUS. And only 2 net carbs for the whole package!

What a great guilt-free treat! 🙂

I’m really craving a big pan of roasted vegetables, but I don’t have any in the house. It’s time to get out and do some serious grocery shopping! In the meantime, I’m using up what I have here and just getting by with simple meals.

Of course, you know me: there’s always low carb take-out or delivery… if my pasta experiment doesn’t go well. 😉 haha

How are things going with you?
