low carb recipes and Passover

Anyone have any good low carb recipes for Passover? Meat and egg dishes are easy; substitutes for matzo is what I am looking for.
Thanks --

I don't do passover, but it seems like Matzo is pretty low-carb as far as
desserts are concerned. Check out this month's Cooking Light, they have a
whole section on passover. You may even be able to get it online. How would
you define a low-carb meal?

Matzo isn't a dessert.

As for Pesach... just don't eat it. I have a representative nibble
during the seder... then I don't eat it the rest of the week, the same
way I don't eat bread.

No but there are desserts listed which use matzo crackers and flour. I don't
really care what matzo is, if its lower in carb than other stuff I use for
dessert...what does it taste like?

Matzo isn't a dessert. It is an unleavened bread - a cracker. It
has religious significance for Jewish people in connection with
Passover. It's also carby.

Is it less carby than other flours that could be used though?

Matzo is entirely carbs.

The ingredients a flour and water. Period.

No. It's pure bioavailable carbs. Pretty much just white flour.

Why substitute? There's no requirement that one eat matzah during pesach -
except for a few ritual bites during the seder - so just avoid it for eight
days the same way you've been avoiding leavened bread on your low-carb diet.

I was thinking a few days ago about how easy pesach is going to be this year
because I am already not eating most of the stuff that's not permitted. I
just have to cut out soy and a few other kitnyot, but these were
occasionals, not staples, of my diet anyhow.

I experimented on making matzo balls (w/soup) using almond flour..... needs
more work. :-)
