Some lower carbohydrate diet pointers:
* It is possible to make wonderful smoothies by using reduced carb yogurt. Ok, well, you can't really call it cooking, but if you really love smoothies you can throw them together with low carb yogurt and fruit. Of course, you should ensure you use fruit that is low in carbohydrates and use the whole fruit as the fiber will help.
