The next time you throw a party, don't ruin your low-carb diet. Instead, create a delicious spread that will satisfy your guests and maintain your figure. This article will show you how to create tasty, low-carb party food.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Try traditional party trays that happen to be low-carb. Make a meat and cheese tray and a veggie tray with low-carb dip selections.

  2. Step 2

    Put out a variety of meatballs and low-carb sauces. Find recipes online for turkey, beef, chicken and other kinds of meatballs and sauces.

  3. Step 3

    Create low-carb wraps by filling fresh lettuce leaves with tuna or chicken salad.

  4. Step 4

    Make low-carb pinwheels by spreading cream cheese, chives, and prosciutto on low-carb tortillas. Roll and cut into small "pinwheel" sections.

  5. Step 5

    Prepare delicious low-carb cheesecake balls by combining 1 8-oz package of cream cheese, 1 stick of butter, ¾ cup of Splenda and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Use a melon baller to make balls. Roll in chopped pecans and refrigerate over night.

  6. Step 6

    Search the Internet and low-carb cookbooks for more delicious low-carb party recipes such as buffalo wings or crab stuffed mushrooms.

Tips & Warnings
  • Find recipes to create low-carb crackers to go with the different party trays and dips.
  • Serve low carb party drinks. Any liquor mixed with diet soda will be carb free. There are several brands of low-carb, "lite" beers on the market.
  • Avoid using light salad dressings as dips. Regular salad dressing is lower in carbs than the light versions.
