Making low carb simple
Instructions
- Divide the ingredients relevant to the serving number and place an equal amount of turkey, avocado, lettuce, and cream cheese on each plate.
- Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Tip!
Feel free to add a couple of sticks of celery, and fill the groove in the celery with the cream cheese. Crunch! Always check the ingredients on deli meats before purchasing them, they can vary significantly. Ask the staff at your local delicatessen for advice.
When I’m reading or looking at a picture of meal plans I’d like to be able to press on the picture of the food and have the recipe come up straight away. It doesn’t, tho, when you’re looking at a picture of a keto meal plan, before you go into the recipe section. Often that picture was an example of the recipes and is set out Monday, Tuesday etc, but has no recipe there and no name on the dish and so when you get into recipes you need to look through them all to find that picture again. I’m sorry if this sounds rambling. It’s a bit hard to explain. If I’m looking for something that looks delicious and I’m not following weekly plans, this little hiccup is a little bit frustrating. Otherwise, thank you all for your massive effort. I am a happy Australian dietdoctor member.
This total meal is 9g net carbs. The recipe as written makes 2 servings.
I'm not sure which meal plan you are following, but lunch is almost always leftovers from dinner the night before.
You guys are doing us a huge favor posting these low-carb meal ideas. It's very hard to find a site, that will post DELICIOUS, low-carb meals.... all for nothing.
Ignore the negativity. Many of us greatly appreciate what you guys are doing!
This is 6g net carbs per serving, not 9. The number in the green circle indicates the carb count.
I upped my "servings" to 3 because there are 3 of us that will be eating the meals in the menu plan, however, when I went to cook the meals, I saw that the actual recipe as "Instructions for 2 servings" on it. In my case of planning my meals for 3 people, does this mean that the love recipe should serve 6 people...????? I am possibly overthinking it, but I am a lille confused. Any help would be most appreciated, thanks!
If you cook only from the Recipes tab in your meal plan, everything will be correct when you make sure you've got the right number of people. If you click through to the actual recipe page then you may need to adjust the number of servings. For 3 people for a lunch with no leftovers, this would be set to 3 servings.
Yes, that would be fine in the same amount.
Cottage cheese will have more fat than cream cheese. Perhaps high fat ricotta?
That is an excellent alternative!
That sounds like a delicious addition to this plate.
Thanks so much for your feedback. We've listened, re-tested this recipe, and improved it. We hope once you try it again yourself, you'll notice the difference — and love it as much as we do.
Happy cooking!

P.S. To keep the comments section up-to-date, we've gone ahead and removed any comments regarding the now-resolved issues. Thanks!
When ingredients are given, is that the amount for that meal or do you double the ingredients since you will eat it for the next day’s lunch and are preparing it ahead for the next day?
If you are cooking from a meal planner, then follow the quantities listed in the meal plan where it says 1+1. That makes 2 total servings, so half is for lunch the next day.
Thanks!
Hi, CW! You can simply omit the avocado. Here are some ideas for adding extra fat to your meals if needed.
