What are you missing?

I would love a soy based, very low carb, wheat free wrap or bread substitute. I've decided to give up wheat completely and I can't find any LC bread substitutes that don't contain wheat.  It would also be lovely to have premade meals, like lean cuisines, that I could just grab. There are a few out there, such as LC chili, but the wraps would make life much easier.

This. About 10 years ago you could buy low carb frozen meals at the grocery. At least you could in my area. I remember buying them, but they weren't available for long. It would be great to be able to have a convenience like that again.

This looks interesting Waterlilly Tortillas Primal Paleo Low Carb Gluten Free! Yummy Mexican Food!  I bet you could use the soy flour or even flax.  Honestly I still just love to use the romaine lettuce.  I was shocked when I was on vacation and a waiter asked me if I wanted some when I told him I didn't want the tortillas.  I with that restaurant was closer to me    Also don't forget about the one minute muffins  

Interesting... I've considered maybe making some almond flour bread. I have made flaxseed bread and that works OK.  For me, the key word is "simple". I have to be able to mix it in a bowl.

We're getting a Whole Foods (Whole Paycheck! ) here so maybe they will carry something I can use.

You could make your own Waterlily, Tupperware sells the containers with the compartments for tv dinners.

The recipes on this forum make more than one serving so I freeze the excess in meal size portions.  When I leave for work in the morning, I grab and go.  It takes a few weeks to build up a variety, but it's worth the planning.

  I agree Doug.  That's why I was thinking you could use flax, soy, nut flour or even a combo    I like this video because she shows how simple it is to make your own.

This is true. I have to economize because I don't have much space in a small apartment. But I think I could make it work.

Atkins, s now has frozen meals. They are extremely good. I found them at Wal-Mart for @ 3.00 dollars.
There are dinners and breakfast meals most about 6 carbs or under. Soooooexcited about these. They are great for work and at home when you need something quick. And amazingly delicious.

Welcome to the forum nosugartalking!  

I saw those at my local Walmart the other day and wondered if they were any good.  I like to make my own freezer meals but I can sure see the appeal of having something ready made and quick to grab.  Especially for those folks that are super busy and/or don't like to cook    May I ask which ones you have tried?

Thanks for the heads-up, nosugartalking.  Welcome to the forum.

Welcome nosugartalking I am Umpa, Dougs wife   There are lots of low carb tortillas on the market as well as lavash and pita breads. There are also lots of recipes here on the forum on the home page. The OMM(one minute muffins ) are extremely good and great for busy people. We are you located?

I love pea soup. Got any ideas?

[shawn116]

I've had this on my list to try but haven't yet so I don't know how good it is.....I have to admit though it looks wonderful.
