How to make it keto
Request no sugary marinades on the skewers. Ensure the garden salad is served plain or with a simple oil and vinegar dressing, with no croutons, high-carb vegetables (like corn or potato salad), or sweet dressings.
Watch out for
Sweet marinades on chicken/prawns; hidden sugars in pre-made pesto or salad dressings; high-carb additions to the salad (croutons, potato, corn, sweet vegetables); default starchy sides like rice or chips.
