About this category

Easter food traditionally celebrates spring, eggs and lamb, which makes it a good fit for low-carb cooking. An asparagus salad with egg and radish is a light start to a holiday brunch, while lamb shoulder kleftiko style or lamb shank with rosemary, garlic and red wine provide a centerpiece that needs little attention once it is in the oven.

Desserts are where adjustments matter most. Paskha, the traditional Orthodox Easter quark dessert, works with almonds, vanilla and a sugar substitute, and the carrot cake with cream cheese topping uses almond flour instead of wheat. Carrots contain more natural sugar than leafy vegetables, so keep portion sizes reasonable and enjoy the cake as a treat rather than a daily snack.

For a relaxed holiday, prepare the paskha a day ahead so it can drain and set in the fridge. Lamb dishes can be seasoned the night before, and slow roasts free up your stovetop for sides. Green asparagus, spinach and radishes are naturally low in net carbs and make easy accompaniments. If you host a brunch, hard-boiled eggs and a creamy herb dip round out the table without extra effort.
