I agree with you, but it usually not just low carb cookbooks that have complicated recipes they all seem to.

I usually just try and use my imagination. If I cook some fish, add some salsa and/or sour cream on top. Same with chicken.

Here's a good one, if you have a rice pot
cut up some cabbage (1/2 to whole)
add rotel tomatoes
cooked ground meat
cut up sausage
about 1/3 cup of water

And let it cook, I usually dislike cabbage, but this is wonderful even my kids love it.
