Slow-Carb Recipes
New: I’ve created a slow-carb meal planner! If you want to make sure you’re eating food that’s on plan but don’t want to take the time to plan, then this meal planner is what you’ve been waiting for.
For more recipes, check out these two recipe books for some awesome slow-carb recipes!
The FMF recipe list will keep growing, so check back every once in a while! If you subscribe to FMF you’ll get the new recipes to your RSS reader. If you follow FMF on Twitter, you’ll be alerted with new recipes. Subscribing by email gets new posts sent directly to your inbox.
The recipes are separated by their primary food group, but many of them have 2 or even all 3 4HB food groups. Go ahead…mix and match them!
Buen provecho!
