How to make it keto
Crucially, confirm absolutely no rice or breadcrumbs are used in the filling. Request minimal tomato paste or use fresh tomatoes to reduce carb content.
Watch out for
Hidden rice or breadcrumbs in the filling; high amounts of tomato paste can increase carb count; often served with bread.
