Low-Carb Vegetarian

This cookbook shows how to avoid the high meat content in popular low-carb diets such as South Beach and the Zones with low-fat, cholesterol-free recipes. Delicious meatless and dairy-free meals, along with sample menus and meal planning tips, provide support not only for short-term weight loss, but long-term weight maintenance and overall good health. Readers will learn to identify "good carbs" found in vegetables, whole grains, and other important foods that contribute to good nutrition. Each recipe contains an analysis of food group servings, amount of major nutrients, and Zone percentages. It also works great for those who are lactose intolerant or allergic to dairy products. Sample recipes are "Chicken" Caesar Salad, Breakfast Smoothies, Shish Kabob with South Asian Marinade, Bee3fy Mushroom Stroganoff, and Riceless Sushi.
