18 Delicious Recipe Ideas

When I started my Trim Healthy Mama (low carb, no sugar, etc.) journey in August, it was a struggle for me to come up with meal ideas for the whole family.  I like to keep things simple and familiar without having to buy "weird" ingredients.  I have shared what I ate the first eight days of my journey and I have shared a few quick lunch ideas, but today I am sharing some of my favorite dinner ideas from other websites/blogs that are low carb or Trim Healthy Mama friendly, but also a crowd pleaser in my home.  (All of the pictures are from the sites that I linked, not my own.)

1.  Spaghetti Pie from Gwen's Nest

2.  Sour Cream Beef Enchiladas from Mrs. Criddle's Kitchen

3.  Bacon Ranch Chicken Casserole from Joy Filled Eats

My Bacon Ranch Chicken Casserole is a hit with kids and adults. Quick, easy, and so comforting. This is cheesy, bacony, and filling. It is low carb, grain, gluten, & sugar free, & a THM S.:

4.  Mini Taco Stuffed Peppers from The Girl Who Ate Everything

And a few of my own that I have featured on the blog, just in case you missed them:

11.  Chicken Tacos & 2 Other Game Day Snacks






14.  Cheesy Pesto Chicken


15.  Stuffed Pork Chops


16.  Foil Packet Salmon


17.  Tex Mex Quinoa


Now, because my oldest child despises odd numbers, I'm going to throw in something sweet to end you meal.  I made this for Bunko last week and it was amazing, not to mention sugar free and low carb!

18.  No Bake Chocolate Covered Strawberry Cheesecake from All Day I Dream About Food


I hope you'll check out some of these delicious low carb, Trim Healthy Mama friendly dishes.  What are some of your "go to" healthy dinners?

Thanks for stopping by!
