Twice Baked Spaghetti Squash

Spaghetti squash is such a versatile vegetable, with its stringy flesh that really does resemble spaghetti noodles. Since it's relatively low carb, it makes a great alternative to pasta. I've come across some smaller spaghetti squash recently and found...

Iced Lemon Sugar Cookies (Low Carb)

The original idea for this recipe was to make Greek Easter cookies, but the dough just wouldn't hold together well enough to be rolled and twisted into shape. However, it was too tasty to waste and it worked beautifully as a cutout sugar cookie.

Are you looking for low carb Passover dessert recipes? Celebrating Passover with diabetes doesn't have to mean you miss out. We've put together a round-up of low carb dessert recipes that don't use flour or leavening agents.

Turtle Brownie Bites (Low Carb, Gluten Free)

I topped these flourless brownie bites with some low carb caramel sauce and a toasted pecan and took them to a party. The kids loved them, of course, but one of our adult friends couldn't stop raving about them!

Cowboy Chili Stuffed Peppers

It may officially be spring but it certainly doesn’t feel like it in many parts of the world. Temperatures are still below freezing and snow…

Cheesy Mashed Cauliflower Puffs (Low Carb)

Mashed potatoes aren't the only game in town! I recently spied a recipe for cheesy mashed potato puffs and wondered if I could modify it for mashed cauliflower. Since cauliflower contains more liquid, I knew that I'd need to add something to give them a little more structure.

Cranberry Orange Drop Low Carb Scones

If you've felt that tea-time hasn't been the same since you started a low carb diet, that is about to change. These cranberry orange drop low carb scones are a perfect tea-time treat. And if you're not a tea drinker, no worries. Low carb scones go very well with coffee, too!

Roasted Garlic Chicken Meatballs

Meatballs are always a huge hit in my house, but most recipes contain unnecessary gluten and carbs. Replacing the bread crumbs with some almond and coconut flour helps bind these chicken meatballs and make them far healthier.

Garlic Parmesan Wings (Low Carb)

These garlic parmesan wings are truly delicious, and the traces of herbs left in the bowl after tossing the wings was so good, I kept sticking my fingers in and licking it up (don’t worry, the chicken was cooked at this point!). Not having to chop the garlic or the basil was a huge plus for me, and I also used the Gourmet Garden oregano instead of dried oregano.

Coconut Raspberry Chocolate Chip Muffins (Gluten Free, Low Carb)

Muffins are the ultimate quick and easy breakfast, especially with small children in the house. I love these coconut flour-based chocolate chip muffins because they're full of good nutrition, but they feel like a treat. I used freeze dried berries, as fresh berries can add too much moisture, which makes the muffins too soggy in the end.
