What it is

Key ingredients
Diced beef, squash (zapallo/pumpkin), cauliflower florets, onions, garlic, bell peppers, green beans (small amount), beef broth, olive oil, spices (cumin, oregano), salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Ensure no potatoes, corn, rice, or other high-carb thickeners. Request minimal carrots and green beans, or omit them entirely if strict. Confirm cauliflower is used instead of potato.
Watch out for
Squash (zapallo) can be higher carb than some keto vegetables; green beans and onions contribute carbs; hidden sugars in broth or seasoning.
