Hi Kim,

I wish I knew the answer for you. My mother and step-father are on that diet and it is so hard to accomadate them when we have a gathering.

I know that they eat alot of meat, certain veggies and hardly any fruits.

They do make lettuce rolls, they take their meat and cheese and roll it up on a lettuce leaf and eat it. They eat alot of salads. Chef salads are good, they add lettuce, tomatoe, onions, ham, cheese, bacon and dressing.

My mother just tells me to make what I would normally make and she would figure it out. It does make me uncomfortable b/c I feel like she isnt eating anything, but what can I do. That diet is expensive when you start buying the special stuff.

Good luck to you, and if you find good foods to serve, let me know as well..
