These low carb recipes you can meal prep have got you covered for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks! Carb counts listed so you don’t have to hunt them down yourself.

In our Lunch Prep Challenge, I get asked all the time “how can I make this a low carb recipe?”. I’ve come to realize that low carb recipes that can be meal prepped are extremely challenging to find, especially ones that can actually fill you up.

So after scouring the internet, I’m sharing more than 26 delicious low carb recipes that will have you covered for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and the best part? They are all meal preppable. Let’s pretend that’s a word 😉

Whether you are diabetic, or are following a low carb diet for weight loss or other reasons, there are a ton of recipes that will hopefully appeal to everyone. These recipes are packed with nutrition and tons of protein to keep you full!

I’m not going to get into the different guidelines for carb intakes from different diets, because I’m not a nutritionist. But I settled on a carb cut-off of 25 g or less for lunches and dinners, and below 15 g for breakfasts and snacks. I am a believer in moderation, and for each of these recipes, you are getting a balanced meal that will fill you up and just happens to be low carb. And can be prepped ahead!

Swaps for low carb recipes: swap rice with cauliflower rice

swap pasta with zucchini noodles or spaghetti squash

swap potatoes with cauliflower (it makes excellent ‘mashed potatoes’ and is also apparently great in ‘potato salad’)

wraps can be swapped with lettuce (I love romaine for it’s crunch factor)

zucchini slices work great for low carb enchiladas or lasagna
