I've been out of the house 3 nights a week at rehearsals for 2 months, so I've been making really simple things. Baked chicken, etc.
I had the afternoon off from work, so I did a little bit more work, and put together a meatloaf that was to die for.

1 lb ground beef
1/2 lb ground pork
1/2 lb ground venison
1 onion diced
1 green pepper diced
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (about)
1 tablespoon worcestershire
Bacon slices to cover loaf

Sautee onion/pepper in butter until soft. Mix all the rest together. Form into loaf, or put in loaf pan (it makes alot). Cover with uncooked bacon slices and bake at 350 until done.

I thought I had died and gone to heaven. After weeks of boring chicken, it was so nice to eat something different.
Of course, the venison is optional, I had some from a doe my boyfriend got in December, and figured I'd put it to good use. It added some nice flavor.
I'm not sure of carb content, but it can't be much.

I've been eating meatloaf for breakfast lately. I forgot bacon and sausage, so I get meatloaf it keeps me full as long as the eggs. I also make mock sheppards pie by indenting the meatloaf, beat four eggs fill the indent, bake for about 20 min, cover in cheese, bake til done, bout 20 more minutes. YMMV.
