How to make it keto
Ensure no sugary marinades are used on the meats. Strictly request omission of all high-carb sides (e.g., rice, fries, plantains, yuca). Request keto-friendly sides like a large green salad or avocado slices. Verify the longaniza used is low-carb.
Watch out for
Sugary marinades or glazes on grilled meats. Hidden fillers/sugars in some commercial sausages. High-carb sides are the norm.
