  • Red Lentil Soup

    How would red lentil soup fair with Atkins? Was planning on making some in about 1.5 litres of water with 1 cup of Lentils.

    It depends on what phase of Atkins you are. Are you on Induction, as your profile indicates? If that is the case, then lentils are not allowed. They are legumes, and legumes can be added back in 5 g net carbs amounts once you reach OWL Rung 6.

      Thanks Georgina. Am new to Atkins but kind of guessed that they were a no no! Am on extended induction into week 4.

        Even when you get on rung 6 that would be hard to fit in - a coup of lentils have aver 50 carbs - we are restricted to five on OWL - in pre maintenance and maintenance it may work.
