How to make it keto
Absolutely crucial to request no breading (milanesa). Confirm the tomato sauce is homemade and contains no added sugar. Ensure no pasta, rice, or other high-carb sides are served.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in pre-made tomato sauces. Flour in sauces. Breading (the primary carb risk) must be explicitly avoided. Often served with pasta.
