Amelia Lee is an avid home cook and nutritionist who relies on low-carb dishes to keep her energy and weight stable.
“I don’t think deprivation is the key to long-term weight loss,” she says. “It’s about finding foods that I enjoy and that are good for my body.”
Amelia’s strategy is straightforward: emphasize on fresh ingredients and making healthy substitutions. A favorite of hers? A pizza with a cauliflower crust. She chuckles, “It’s so guilt-free and satisfying.”
Amelia makes it by combining cooked cauliflower, cheese, and eggs, then baking it in a crispy crust. The whole family will love this low-carb supper when you add your own toppings.
She usually begins her day with an omelet full of vegetables. Amelia explains, “I add spinach, tomatoes, and a sprinkle of feta.” “It prevents the mid-morning crash and keeps me full until lunchtime.” She enjoys homemade pesto with zucchini noodles for supper. She says, “Zoodles are a lifesaver.” “They satisfy pasta cravings and are tasty and quick.”
Amelia advises anyone thinking about a low-carb diet to start out small. “Try using almond flour in your baking or replacing bread with lettuce wraps,” she suggests. “Small adjustments add up, and you’ll notice results before you know it.”
