Vegetarian low carb cuisine

Author Margrit Sulzberger reveals creative low-carb recipes for vegetarians in her book "Lean Kitchen Vegetarian". The courts follow the so-called Glycemic Index. This indicates how much food affects our blood sugar levels because of their carbohydrate content.

For example: 100 grams of a food with a glycemic load of 20 causes the same blood sugar increase as 20 grams of pure glucose. If you want to lose weight quickly and successfully, you can use low-carb products with a low (0-55) to medium (56-75) glycemic load, recommends Margrit Sulzberger.

Literature tip:

"Slender cuisine vegetarian" reveals vegetarian low-carb recipes that are based on the so-called glycemic load. The book is recipe collection and guidebook in one. It always recommends a low-carbohydrate meal at noon. For breakfast and dinner, we can choose between either a protein breakfast combined with a carbohydrate-rich dinner or a carbohydrate breakfast in combination with a low carb dinner.

To keep track, all dishes are marked with K (carbohydrate rich), E (protein) or N (neutral).
