LCHF Recipe Index

Low-carb recipes

In this section, you'll find a growing list of healthy low-carb recipes, all wheat free and gluten free... except for the einkorn bread recipe made from the earliest form of wheat. This informed LCHF approach uses healthy, mostly fresh but some canned ingredients which contain all the necessary macro-nutrients (protein, fats and non-starchy carbohydrates) and dairy products which include full fat milk.
The only complete 'no-no's are wheat and sugar, although sugar can still be used as an occasional additive - more in the way you might use salt and pepper. Dr Robert Lustig's arguments about sugar and why it can be particularly bad for children are now becoming mainstream. Dr William Davis' book, Wheat Belly, about the problems associated with modern wheat is also compelling and anecdotal experience with friends and family has proven him right. That one exception? Freshly made Einkorn bread which has even been enjoyed by some with a low tolerance to gluten... but please remember; it is of course not low-carb at all!
