What it is

Optional tweaks
Ensure no peas or other high-carb vegetables are included in the broth or as garnish. Request only clear broth with keto vegetables and crispy lardons.
Watch out for
Inclusion of traditional peas (as in pea soup) or other starchy vegetables; use of flour or cornstarch as a thickener; addition of noodles or pasta.
