You could make chicken packets, which are chicken with vegetables and seasonings wrapped in foil and then baked or grilled. I've never tried these but they're on my must try list!
Meatloaf is a staple and so easy to make low-carb. You can add a little bit of cheese to replace the bread crumbs.
Wal*Mart's Great Value brand makes a great alfredo sauce that has only 3 carbs for 1/4 cup. I like to make a lot of chicken and pour the sauce over along with canned mushrooms just like you'd prepare chicken fettuccine alfredo. I eat it without the noodles of course and just have a side salad. It would be good served over broccoli too.
A lot of us really enjoy these two recipes:

I've tried both and they're delicious!
My mom makes a soup by simmering stew meat, beef broth, zucchini, squash, green beans, and some other veggies. She's also made cheese-stuffed meatballs, which were really good. All you do is cut string cheese into sections, season and mix ground beef the way you'd normally prepare meatballs, and then wrap the meat around the cheese chunks and bake or cook in a skillet. I ate these simmered in homemade spaghetti sauce (made from tomato sauce that contains no sugar, check labels!) and then served over spaghetti squash instead of noodles. Mmm.
I hope this helped!
I'll be shopping tomorrow and will look for some of those things. Any suggestions for desserts?? I know I should stay away from sweet stuff b/c of cravings, but any ideas for a small dessert snack after dinner??
