High protien, low carb recipe idea

[Expunge]

Mom's coming over for a Mother's day lunch Sunday. She is requesting a high protien, low carb meal. I have no idea what to make.

How about a grilled chicken breast w/ side salad (be careful w/ dressings), and something like sugar-free Jello for dessert?

you could also make some mini quiches (sort of) using egg beaters (SW version) and spinach and cheese. yummy.

If she likes seafood, a grilled fish with salsa choice might do. (Something exotic, or a nice traditional salmon or sole, depending on her taste.)

You can serve that with a nice salad, maybe with some chunks of low-fat cheese or some nuts thrown in.

Maybe add some of the "cauliflower that looks like mashed potato" on the side if she likes cauliflower.

This page has a bunch of low-carb dessert options. (Warning: low-carb does not necessarily mean low-fat or low-calorie)

low carb diets are stupid.

If you're not worried about cholesterol, devilled eggs also seem to fit the bill. You can find low-carb mayo; normal mustard should be fine. That was one of the things my brother and SIL requested when they were in the South Beach induction phase.

a nice fish is a great idea. whatever fish you choose, i suggest a crushed pecan coating. not sure if winter veges are still available, but acorn squash goes well with fish.
