Hi!
I used to do vegetarian low carb as well for three years!. Although I wasn't able to keep it up forever I still make some of the meals listed below because they are so tasty!. :) Here are some examples:
Breakfast: This is much easier for vegetarians!. I made a quiche sometimes and ate a piece each week or a frittata!. If you get sick of eggs these flaxmeal muffins are also good!. You can add blueberries to them too:

Here is a good spaghetti squash recipe that is delicious:

This stuffed cabbage type recipe is also good: http://allrecipes!.com/Recipe/Unstuffed-C!.!.!.
Mexican dish: Use fake 'meat' instead of chicken:
http://allrecipes!.com/Recipe/Chiles-Rell!.!.!.
Stir Fry:

I also used a lot of recipes from this lady!. She has a whole section of main dish veggie low carb and I also made the ground beef recipes with substitutes!.

Of course you can always make easy soups such as egg drop soup (super low carb), or salads which are also very low carb!.
Good luck!Www@FoodAQ@Com

High-protein, low-carb diets advocate consuming more protein-rich foods such as eggs, meat, fish and cheese and less carbohydrate-rich foods like bread, potatoes and pasta!. The reasoning behind these diets is that too many carbohydrates cause the body to overproduce insulin, leading to weigh gain!. Insulin transports sugar from the bloodstream and stores it in muscle and liver cells as backup energy!. When these stores get full, insulin stores sugar as fat!.
Flaws in Low Carb Diet Theory
The problem with these theories is that insulin only turns carbohydrates into fat if you consume more calories than your body needs!. also, obesity causes insulin resistance, not carbohydrates!.
Following this type of diet means that your body will also be lacking fibre and antioxidants!. A diet too high in protein can also adversely affect your bone strength and place strain on your kidneys!.
Low Carb Diet & Ketosis
Ketosis is another possible side-effect of following this diet!. If your carbohydrate intake is so low that the glucose needs of your brain are not met, your body will burn fat incompletely to produce a substance called ketone, which is a substitute brain fuel!. This may cause light-headedness, nausea and bad breath!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
