Worried about being hungry on a low-carb diet? It’s very unlikely unless you are deliberately restricting calories. Here’s one example of a low-carb meal that is very filling. Even without the small piece of sweet potato, this is a lot of food. I couldn’t even eat all three chicken thighs, so I have one for…
A big salad is such a versatile low-carb meal! This winter salad has Romaine lettuce, seasoned shredded chicken breast, a small amount of sweet potato, tomatoes, red peppers, red onion, salsa mayo, Aleppo pepper flakes and salt. I warmed up the chicken and sweet potato in the microwave.

A very simple and typical low-carb meal: air-fried pork chops and steamed spinach with butter.

An easy, light meal using Kirkland’s Bacon and Cheese Egg Bites from Costco (heated in the air fryer) and Piller’s Black Forest Ham slices.
