Low Carb Mashed Potatoes
Well, you may still be able to enjoy the satisfying taste of these well loved foods but you’ll have to get creative! We all know there is no such thing as low carb mashed potatoes, or low carb desserts – the carbohydrate count in sugars and starchy vegetables is just too high, but with a little substitution you may be able to come up with a close second! A good substitute for low carb mashed potatoes is cauliflower. Cauliflower has about 3g net carbs in ½ cup so you can fill up your plate with the healthy substitution. When making it, you need to be careful to squeeze all the water out of the cauliflower so it is not too mushy and to cook it just right so it isn’t lumpy! |
Low carb desserts can still be enjoyed (after the induction phase) by baking them your self and substituting low carb ingredients for their high carb counterparts. Click here to check out my low carb desserts recipes.
If you aren’t into baking there’s plenty of premade low carb desserts out there that you can buy online and have delivered to your door! If you are afraid that they will taste icky – I can assure you I have tried many of them and they taste great! I’ve even reviewed them for you – Click here to look at my low carb food reviews section where you can find links to reviews on desserts and candies.
So, if you just use a little imagination you can load up on foods like low carb mashed potatoes and stay low carb without feeling guilty!
