Jo-
I looked high and low to find a low protein diet, I can honestly say I don't think there is one. The good news, we have a sister site called Foodfit.com. If you click here low protein recipes it will bring up recipes that have low protein foods. The down fall is it doesn't give you the exchange option but it does list the number of carbs per serving.
