How to make it keto
CRITICAL: Request no pasta. Ask for extra butter sauce and ensure no flour is used to thicken the sauce. Request a side of non-starchy vegetables like broccoli or sautéed spinach.
Watch out for
Pasta is the primary carb risk. Flour/cornstarch thickeners in sauce, hidden sugar in some pre-made sauces.
