Nosh Theory

You don’t really need us to tell you how to quickly throw together a veggie-based low carb salad, but we like to assist in the motivation department whenever possible, so here we go!

All suggestions below are meant to aide in the preparation of quick meals and can, therefore, be eaten raw (though, you may prefer thin slices of the stronger flavored vegetables listed). However, if you have more time to cook and cool you can add even more options (like spaghetti squash strands or marinated and grilled cauliflower slices!). Options listed below contain 15 grams or less of carbohydrate per serving.
