Look for ground almonds, they're the same product. More often called ground almonds in uk and almond flour in us - you can also buy huge bags on amazon!

There are lots, just have a look through the threads xx
Have to share this scrummy experimental veggie mousaka
Baked it at 200 for 30 mins in a loaf tin and got 3 good sized servings. Each serving one worked out 3 net carbs and 215 cals
1/2 can of toms mixed with 200 frozen quorn mince (I didn't precook it) & two sticks of celery chopped small & 20g gia tom purée and spice of your choice I did cinnamon. Put all this in the bottom of your loaf tin. Then I zapped a whole aubergine in the microwave till cooked (about 200g) then sliced and layered on top. Next comes the topping ... This sounds odd but worked ... Mix together 1 egg & 200g cottage cheese (mash it a bit so lumps r small) & 20g of Italian hard cheese, pour on the top and bake.
It was scrummy and really filling. Have frozen a couple of portions too
Can also vouch for the min microwave muffins, I make them savoury just flax baking powder and egg then whatever I fancy , cheese works, so does veggie pepperoni. Thinking I could make a bigger flatter one and use it as a burger bun
Week one of diet done and 1kg lost

Whatever it takes!
Just found a twist on original cauliflower crust pizza, what about zucchini? Would need a few tweeks (replace corn, toms, but I like the avocado on it, bacon, avo n garlic are a magic combo!)

Zucchini Pizza Crust (with Chipotle BBQ Bacon and Grilled Corn Pizza)
A healthy zucchini pizza crust topped with chipotle bbq sauce, bacon, grilled corn, red onion and plenty of cheese!
Servings: 2-4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Printable Recipe
Ingredients
4 cups zucchini, shredded
1/2 cup mozzarella, shredded
1/4 cup parmigiano reggiano (parmesan), grated
1 egg
1 teaspoon oregano or Italian seasoning
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup chipotle barbecue sauce
3/4 cup gouda or mozzarella (optionally smoked), shredded
1 ear of grilled corn (or 1/2 cup corn)
4 slices bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces and cooked
red onion to taste, thinly sliced
fresh cilantro to taste (optional)
diced tomato to taste (optional)
diced avocado to taste (optional)
Directions
(optional) Microwave the zucchini on high for 6 minutes, let cool, place it in a tea towel and squeeze as much moisture out as you can.
Mix the zucchini, mozzarella, parmesan, egg, oregano, salt and pepper, press the mixture onto a baking mat or parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake in a preheated 450F oven until lightly golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
Spread the barbecue sauce on the pizza, top with the mozzarella, corn, bacon and red onion and bake until the cheese is bubbling, about 10-15 minutes.
Optionally serve topped with fresh cilantro, avocado and tomato.
Note: Step 1 is optional and the recipe will work without doing it but it helps make it easier to remove the moisture from the zucchini. If you use raw zucchini the bake time for the crust will be closer to 20 minutes than 15.

oooh I like the courgette pizza idea!
Here's tonight's dinner -
Tuna Frittata
Mix the following together -
- two cans of tuna (one was with black pepper and lemon oil)
- four beaten eggs (and a bit of water)
- one small green pepper (chopped into small bits)
- one stick celery (also chopped finely)
- one pot cottage cheese - but mayo and/or cream cheese would be lower carb
Put the mix in a lasagne dish, sprinkle with cheese and cook at 200 for 30 minutes.
Makes four very filling slices, eaten hot or cold. 24g carbs for the lot.

Whatever it takes!
Creamy Mushroom Omelette (1g carbs)
-3 large free range eggs
-100g white button/chestnut (any really) mushrooms
-1 tablespoon cream
-Salt n pepper to taste
-1 tsp butter
-1/2 tsp dried/fresh parsley
Clean and chop mushrooms, fry in a little butter, season to taste.
While doing that, get your oven grill on high. Also mix eggs in bowl, brush a little oil in pan and put eggs in, pop any 'bubbles' that form, swirl the egg around for even distribution and cook for about a minute on stove.
Now put the eggs in pan under grill for a minute or two, until golden and puffy.
Take mushrooms off heat when golden (about 2-3 minutes) and add tbsp cream, mix into mushrooms till melted and you have achieved creamy goodness!
Plate up the omelette and top with creamy mushrooms, garnish with half tsp dried/fresh parsley. Enjoy!

I am a great foodie and, unfortunately, this shows on my body! So, returning to Atkins post giving birth to my twins (I lost two stones on Atkins for my IVF attempts), I had to come up with my own recipes to expand the range of flavors available. I just recently shared one of them, Low Carb Spinach Cakes, on my blog www.goldenapron.com with pictures and instructions. Yep, this is a dessert with spinach! And so deliciously moist and unusual. I hope you will like it.
