I had no idea either until I read their menu online. I try to plan my meals in advance so that I can stay within my plan. I'll let you know how it tastes.

Ruby Tuesday's Roasted Spaghetti Squash was mediocre. I had to doctor it with salt.

I decided to leave the Atkins bars alone. I was only counting the net carbs and come to find out they have over 20 total carbs. YIKES. Here's today's plan:

Breakfast:
3 eggs
2 oz sausage
1/4 c cheese
coffee w/cream

Lunch:
2 oz salad mix
3 oz turkey breast
1/4 blue cheese crumbles
2 TBSP blue cheese dressing
1/8 c mushrooms

Dinner:
3 oz pot roast
2/3 c steamed veggies

On Atkins Induction, cheese is limited to 3-4 ozs per day. Cheese seems to be a common staller for a lot of people, myself included. I found I personally do much better when I limit cheese to 1-2 ozs.
The majority of your carbs (12-15 of your 20 for the day) should be coming from veggies & salads on the acceptable foods list.
My suggestion would be to severely limit the cheese and add more veggies or another salad with dinner.
All the best to you!!:)
