Atkins Diet Plan For Vegetarians

I started my Atkins diet (read Low Carb Diet) as a non-vegetarian, but when I moved from Bhubaneswar to Noida it became difficult for me to continue as I did not want to eat expensive fish that was notoriously polluted by the Yamuna was brought. Read my non-vegetarian diet plan Here.

I like chicken but can't eat it every day, while pork and beef are out of the question. So I had little choice but to move on to my “generally vegetarian” lifestyle. One look at the weekly Tuesday shopping spree made me too happy as it was full of low-carb vegetables. This is the list of vegetables I buy every week mostly for their low carb content. So here is the list of the carbohydrate content of each vegetable.

	vegetables	Carbohydrates g / 100 g
1	Boiled broccoli	1.3
2	Boiled cabbage	0.6
3	Raw spinach	1.6
4th	Green salad	1.4 to 1.9
5	Sarson raw	4.7
6th	Mushrooms raw	3.4
7th	Capsicum raw	2.6
8th	Eggplant raw	2.2
9	Paneer	2
10	Raw tomatoes	3
11	Cucumber raw	1.5
12th	Raw red cabbage	3.7
13th	Radish raw	2
14th	Pumpkin raw	2.2
fifteen	Boiled cauliflower	2.3
16	Boiled baby corn	2.7
17th	Raw okra	3
18th	Raw mung sprouts	4th
19th	Carrots raw	6th
20th	Raw red pepper	6.4
21	Onions raw	8th

After going through this list, you can be sure that you have a general idea of ​​how to prepare a healthy and tasty low carb meal. Make salads, soups or fry them.

If you eat eggs, add a handful of cabbage, chopped spinach, a teaspoon of chopped onion, a clove of garlic chopped into 2 beaten eggs and sauté them in a tablespoon of butter. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and you have a full meal ready.

Here is a simple low-carb vegetarian recipe that is my favorite.

IMPORTANT – If you are vegan or egg intolerant, you can make the same recipe with no eggs and an increase in tofu / paneer. For better baking, it is better to mix tofu / paneer in cream form.

Atkins Diet Plan for Vegetarians

My low-carb vegetarian diet generally looks like this.

Early morning

A teaspoon of roasted methi powder with 2 glasses of water. Then a large cup of black tea without sugar with a tablespoon of milk cream (Malai) and four almonds.

breakfast

After my Walk at Home program. Two eggs boiled with vegetables and lots of butter. (Above recipe) and a large cup of black coffee with 1 tablet of stevias.

Having lunch

A large salad plate (blanched cabbage, paprika, spinach) with 40 g paneer crumbled in it.

Evening tea

Black tea with cream and 20 g peanuts / walnuts.

dinner

Cabbage, paprika, ginger, spinach, green chillies and coriander sautéed / baked / soup. A couple of almonds for that sweet feeling of satiety. 😉

You can change the vegetable combinations at any time. Like sometimes I just like to have a bowl of "Sarson Palak & # 39; s Saag" with a large spoonful of Desi Ghee. It's great for dinner in winter.

ADVICE OF THE DAY – To keep servings under control, chop and weigh the vegetables only in the morning and set them aside so you are aware of your daily savings.

Always keep the food scales to hand.

People will call you crazy sometimes, but that's the way it is. It's your life and as far as food goes, you have every right to find your way. Be special about your life now. You cannot let go of your joy of being healthy as you have a chance to live a healthy, fulfilling life.

Love life, live life.
