How to make it keto
Request 'sin arroz' (without rice) and 'sin habichuelas' (without beans). Ask if any sugar is added to the sauce for browning or flavor and request it be omitted if possible. Specify no root vegetables like potatoes or yuca. Can be served with a side of sautéed spinach or green beans if available, or avocado.
Watch out for
Tomato paste and large quantities of bell peppers/onions contribute carbs. Some restaurants might add a pinch of sugar for browning or flavor. Traditional sides are high-carb.
