    This dinner collection features recipes that include a small amount of carbs and a lot of protein. In many of these recipes, the amount of carbs is really minimal.

    • The carbs in these dinners come from complex carbohydrates (such as vegetables and fruit), and not from simple refined carbohydrates (which usually means pasta, bread, etc).
    • Again, no pasta, no rice, no bread here.
    • Just lots of protein plus veggies and/or fruit!
