Crucially, ensure no black beans, rice, or farofa are served. Confirm no added sugars in the meat preparation or broth. Request a side of sautéed collard greens or other low-carb vegetables.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in cured meats or sausages, starchy thickeners sometimes used in the cooking broth, or cross-contamination with high-carb dishes.
