Re: is sour ceam Ok?
You can have all that, bombie!
Sour cream is limited to 1 ounce a day for induction. Tomato sauce is fine, just be careful with the carbs and make sure you choose one that has no sugar added. Ham is fine too, again, be careful of added sugars.
Good luck! -

The lowest carb tomato sauce comes in both Contadina and Hunt's, and has only 3 total carbs per 4 tablespoons. Not bad for a taco salad!

Re: is sour ceam Ok?
I found a sauce at the store today that seems to be really low. "Simply Enjoy" is it's name. It has ( for 1/2 cup):
4 Carbs
2 Fibre
2 NET Carbs for 1/2 cup
Haven't tried it yet. For all I know it could taste like dishwater.Comment

Re: is sour ceam Ok?
Sounds promising - but make sure it doesnt contain any non-induction ingredients by looking at the list on the jar!
Another thought - I noticed you spelled 'fibre' the british way, are you in UK? If so the fibre carbs are listed separately from the carbohydrates as they are not counted in the total carbs, so that 4 carbs might be the 'net' carbs.Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

Not really a mistake - just writing in a different language!!
So your carb count seems good - assuming the ingredients are all 'legal'.Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
