Default Request low-carb recipes for diabetes

Can anyone suggest some good (but *easy*) recipes for beef, lamb, pork or
chicken stew or roasts? -- but the "catch" here is the recipe must not
include *any* potatoes, flour, rice, pasta, or sugar. I have diabetes, and
I have found that I can keep my blood glucose levels well under control if I
completely avoid those items. A single slice of whole wheat bread will send
my sugar spiking, so the only bread I eat is Ezekiel bread (a flourless
bread made from sprouted grains -- purchased at a health food store and must
be kept frozen or refrigerated). Obviously, I get sugar through the fresh
fruit I eat, but I do not *add* any at all. My diet is not nearly as
limiting as this sounds -- lots of fresh veggies, fruit, lean meat, eggs,
etc. plus nuts and low-fat cheese -- but I do not spend a lot of time in the
kitchen and would like some quick but tasty recipes.

I am new to this group, and I apologize if this question has previously been
asked and answered.

Thanks for the help.
