How to make it keto
Request no high-carb sides (e.g., peas 'n' rice, mac 'n' cheese, plantains, baked potatoes). Ask for a simple side salad with oil and vinegar dressing (no sugary dressing) or steamed non-starchy vegetables if available (e.g., green beans, cabbage, broccoli). Ensure no sugary marinades or glazes.
Watch out for
Sugary marinades, sweet glazes, high-carb traditional sides (peas 'n' rice, mac 'n' cheese, plantains, regular coleslaw).
