Atkins Diet And Low Carb Recipes - Available Online

Atkins diet and low carb recipes go hand in hand. You can’t do Atkins without gathering lots of low carb recipes. These recipes can be found in cookbooks, magazines and on web sites that cater to people on low carbohydrate diets. Do you have a favorite recipe for stew, soup or a casserole? Well there is probably a reduced carb version out there. Ice cream, cheesecake and chili can all be made with ingredients that are low carb.

One really good Atkins diet and low carbs recipe is for chocolate truffles.

1 cup heavy cream
2 lbs unsweetened butter
8 oz unsweetened chocolate (chopped)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups granulated sugar substitute
unsweetened cocoa powder for dusting

In a large saucepan bring cream to a boil. Add chocolate and stir until melted. Remove from heat. Add sugar substitute, butter and vanilla and mix until smooth. Transfer to a large bowl. Refrigerate until cool and stiff, about 2 hours. Sift cocoa powder onto a piece of waxed paper. Use a small metal scoop to form chocolate balls. Roll in cocoa powder. Place in foil candy cups. Yields 48 pieces. This recipe made with low carb ingredients is found in “Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution”.

Low carb recipes can be very creative. There is a recipe for mashed potatoes that uses cauliflower which is lower in carbohydrates than potatoes. Cauliflower can also be used in place of high carb potatoes to make low carb “hash browns”. Atkins dieters do not have to settle for boring meals. Low carb versions of just about any dish can probably be found on the net.
