Hi,

I am going to try a low carb diet for the new year to see if it helps at all, Does anyone have any suggestions for a good low carb cook book?
 
Meant to say, I am looking for some quick meal recipes if possible.
 
Brilliant - thanks Alan - will look into it.
I am seriously getting bored of meals. so need to get organised and have something a bit different. I have had a couple of prawn stir fries this week, which are delicious but don't want the same thing too often.
 
Alan, I have just had a look at this and have to say the portobello mushroom with a poached egg on top, topped with bacon bits and creme fraiche does sound better than my porridge for breakfast! I am assuming this is okay for a diabetic too? Yum Yum if so, book is ordered!

i am going to get this book because

The recipes feature ingredients that trigger the release of the 'happy hormone' dopamine in your brain, so it's a diet that will make you feel good! Tom's 'dopamine heroes' include dairy products such as double cream and yoghurt, good-quality meats including beef, chicken and turkey, and even chocolate. By ditching alcohol and starchy carbs in favour of plenty of protein, fresh fruit and veg, you will be eating meals that will help you shed the weight, whilst offering a satisfying intensity of flavour.

Treats in store for Dopamine Dieters include spinach, bacon and mint soup; roasted onion salad with fried halloumi; shepherd's pie with creamy cauliflower topping; soy glazed cod with chilli, garlic and ginger; braised beef with horseradish; Chinese pork hot pot; and chocolate mousse with sesame almond biscuits. These are recipes that don't feel like diet food, and can be shared with friends and family. It worked for Tom and it can work for you. Give it a go! And lose weight the Dopamine Diet way.
