If you order it anyway
While cabotiá squash is lower-carb than other squashes, request a smaller portion of the squash if strict keto, or ensure it's not overly sweet. Confirm no flour or sugar added to the stew base. Serve without rice or farofa.
Watch out for
Abóbora cabotiá, while lower in carbs than other squashes, still contributes to total carbs in a large serving. Stews can hide added sugars or starches for thickening. Always confirm no high-carb additions.
