I am brand new to EYB and am looking for information and communication on cooking for those of us who are on special diets.

Hi,


Welcome to EYB!


I am surprised no one replied here yet. But it might be that they have the same experience that I have: EYB is a great resource but it is not very helpful with specific diets.


I am on a pretty strict low-carb diet myself, but I never use the low-carb nutrition filter EYB has. I find it leaves out so many recipes that are either naturally low-carb or very easily adapted, and worse, it leaves in many recipes that may be paleo or something like that but are definitely not low-carb (banana-maple syrup cake anyone? I made it especially for your diet...).


So for special diets, your best bet is either to use EYB only within cookbooks/websites that you know and trust, or to just use it to find recipes and then choose and adapt as needed.


The EYB filters for vegetarian/vegan diets are fine.

Thanks Wester.  I'll use your approach.
