How to make it keto
Request no rice, potatoes, or yuca. Ask for a side of green salad (without sugary dressing) or steamed vegetables (e.g., green beans, broccoli). Confirm no sugar is added to the onions during caramelization, which is common in restaurants.
Watch out for
Hidden sugar in onion caramelization or seasoning, starchy sides served automatically, high-carb dressing on salad.
