If you’re all about easy and delicious meals with tasty tricks to keep things low-carb, you’re in the right place! This week, I’m serving up cheesy bell pepper tuna melts, spinach-artichoke dip spaghetti squash and egg roll bowls. These dishes bring all the flavor while sneaking in smart swaps for extra nutrition. They’re filled with protein, fiber and crave-worthy goodness, making mealtime easier, tastier and way more fun.
My family loves these three dishes, and I’m so hoping you do, too. Here’s a trick that is simple, satisfying and so easy: Swap bread for colorful bell peppers in this lightened-up tuna melt, packed with protein and melty cheese. It’s a low-carb, high-flavor spin on the classic, delivering all the nostalgic comfort we love — with fewer carbs and calories, and far more nutrients.
Turn cheesy spinach artichoke dip into a hearty, veggie-packed meal with spaghetti squash. My lightened-up take on the rich dip perfectly coats the tender squash strands, making every bite irresistibly creamy and flavorful. Plus, you’ll have extra dip — perfect for crudites, sandwiches, baked potatoes or for eating straight off the spoon.
Welcome to my deconstructed egg roll bowl — more volume, amazing flavor and fewer carbs! Here, you’ll get all the savory, umami-packed flavors of an egg roll — no deep frying, no wrappers, just pure deliciousness. This one-pan wonder brings together ground meat, shitake mushrooms and shredded cabbage with bold spices and a crave-worthy DIY duck sauce. It’s quick and meal-prep friendly.
