What it is

Key ingredients
Beef steak, eggs, olive oil/butter, mixed green salad (lettuce, tomato, onion), salt, pepper, oil and vinegar dressing.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no french fries ('sin papas fritas'). Ensure the salad dressing is oil and vinegar-based and verify no hidden sugars.
Watch out for
Restaurants often serve this with french fries. Hidden sugars can be found in pre-made salad dressings or excessive use of high-carb vegetables in the salad (e.g., corn, carrots). Some establishments might use non-keto cooking oils.
