General Tips for Making a Recipe Low-Carb

Add inexpensive greens like cabbage, frozen spinach, or chopped kale.
Swap noodles for spiralized inexpensive vegetables, like zucchini or carrots.
Swap out rice for “riced” cauliflower. (I’ve seen pre-grated or “riced” cauliflower for a good price at Trader Joes.)
Hearty soups and stews are a great way to stretch meat without adding carbs. Fill the soup with other vegetables, thick broths, beans, or legumes.
