📌 New Recipe + Freebie: Low Carb Grocery List with 200+ Picks

Published 2 months ago • 1 min read

Hey Reader,

I’m keeping it short this Sunday—but trust me, you’ll want to bookmark this one. This week’s recipe is the kind of low-carb side dish that gets devoured before the main course even hits the table.

I’m talking about my Mexican Coleslaw—cool, crunchy, creamy, and loaded with flavor. It’s low-carb, keto, gluten-free, dairy-free, paleo, and vegetarian. In other words, it checks every box without compromising taste.

Bonus? I’ve also got a printable shopping list that’s going to save you a ton of time at the store.

Let’s dig in:

​Mexican Coleslaw Recipe​

There’s nothing quite like a huge scoop of this coleslaw on top of grilled pollo asado. But don’t stop there—it’s next-level on tacos, nachos, or even straight from the bowl.

Here’s why it works:
✅ Just 2g net carbs per serving
✅ 5 minutes prep with pre-shredded cabbage
✅ Creamy, zesty, and totally satisfying

​Freebie: Low-carb Grocery List​

If grocery shopping feels like a game of “guess the carbs”… I’ve got your back. I just updated my Low Carb Grocery List with over 200 items you can eat in moderation.

Inside the guide:
✔ Hidden sugar warnings & label-reading tips
✔ High-fat staples I always keep on hand
✔ My personal notes on what’s worth skipping

This week’s a good one to simplify. Whether you’re throwing together a weeknight dinner or stocking your pantry, I’ve got you covered with recipes that work and resources that actually help.

Thanks for being here. You make this community awesome.

Catch you next week—​

Hey There! Last week, I talked about pivoting to creating more video and community… and does that ever bring with it a steep learning curve! This week, I’m walking the walk.

Or keep it light and fun? What would be most...
