Welcome to Food and Cooking Chat. Any thoughts, ideas, questions or comments you have about food or cooking are welcome here.

What Posts Belong Where?

Recipe requests, if they're for a specific recipe rather than general foodie topics like "let's talk about how many ways we can cook chicken", should be posted to the Recipe Requests forum.

If you have recipes to share, please post them in our new low carb cookbook - http://www.lowcarbrecipes.org/

Before posting anything, especially a question, please use the search function to see if someone has already posted the answer. http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/search.php


Searching For A Recipe

You can use search engines like http://www.google.com to look for good low carb recipes. If you are searching for a low carb cherry pie recipe, try a search phrase like this, with the quote marks: "low carb pie recipe"

You could also try "low carb cherry pie" +recipe or "cherry pie" +"low carb" +recipe

If for some reason you kept getting irrelevant hits because there is a famous rock star named Cherry Pie who keeps showing up in the results talking about her latest record which is called "Angel Dust", try this:

"cherry pie recipe" +"low carb" -music -"rock star" -"Angel Dust"

Using the plus sign makes sure that the word or phrase you want shows up in the results. Using the minus sign makes sure that the word or phrase you don't want does not show up in the results.

With a little practice, you can learn to use search engines to find just about any information you need on the Web.
