How to make it keto
Ensure no rice, beans, or farofa are served alongside. Confirm that the tomato base for the ground beef is fresh and contains no added sugar. Request no flour thickeners.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in commercial tomato sauces or pastes. High-carb side dishes if not explicitly removed. Overuse of onions and tomatoes can increase carb count.
