What types of dishes are suitable for a low carbohydrate, high protein diet?
If you are reducing your carbs but upping your protein you would typically be cutting out or reducing your portion sizes of potatoes, pasta, rice, bread etc. and having meals such as steak and salad or vegetable and chicken stir fry but without the noodles. It’s fine to do this for one meal a day or just for a short time, but it is not recommend to cut carbs too drastically or long term. Our bodies need carbohydrates for energy and you can lose weight just as effectively simply by moderating your carb portion size and choosing the more filling high fibre (or “brown”) carbs.
