On Atkins, cover half your plate with seasonal low carb veggies. Most of your daily carbs should come from veggies. When counting fruit and veggie carbs, subtract the grams from fiber and count the rest toward your daily total.

Simple ways to add the right balance of veggies:

 

Using Veggies in Low Carb Meals

  • At breakfast, add vegetables to an omelet or quiche.
  • For a well-balanced low carb lunch, try a large salad with protein and dressing.
  • For dinner, choose a cut of meat, poultry or seafood with a side of vegetables and a small garden salad.

Guess the Carbs Without a List

Most non-starchy vegetables are very low in carbs, less than 5 net carbs in 1/2 cup. However, there are differences between them.

If you don’t have a list handy to check the carb counts, estimate the amounts based on what the fruit or vegetable looks like.

 

Group Your Veggies

Divide vegetables into four groups, depending on what part of the plant they come from.

Leaves (almost zero carb)

Trace carbs are wrapped in so much fiber that there is little, if any, impact on blood sugar. They are rich in phytonutrients, vitamins and minerals. Examples: lettuce, spinach, Swiss chard, herbs.

Stems and Flowers (very low carb)

Some stem and flower vegetables are asparagus, cauliflower, broccoli and mushrooms.

Fruit (moderate carbs)

The fruit is the part of the plant that contains seeds. Botanically, this is the fruit of the plant, although we tend to call it “fruit” only if it’s sweet.

Examples of “fruit” include peppers, squashes of all types, green beans, tomatoes, okra, and eggplant. Avocado is also a fruit, but is lower in carbs than the others.

Roots (very high carb)

Many roots, such as parsnips, water chestnuts, potatoes, sweet potatoes and yams are high in carbs.

However, some are actually lower in carbs, such as jicama, radishes, celery root and carrots.
