Carne Asada con Aguacate y Ensalada (Grilled Steak with Keto Sides)
Grilled Steak with Avocado and Salad
Yes, with a tweak: request no rice, no beans, no tortillas, no plantains. About 5g net carbs per serving, lower than 8 in 10 Guatemalan dishes.
What it is
Flavorful grilled marinated steak, served with fresh avocado slices and a simple mixed green salad. The traditional high-carb sides like rice, beans, and tortillas are omitted for a keto-friendly meal.
Key ingredients
Beef steak (flank, skirt, or sirloin), lime juice, garlic, salt, pepper, olive oil, avocado, mixed greens, cucumber, tomato (small amount for garnish), vinaigrette (oil and vinegar).
How to make it keto
Request no rice, no beans, no tortillas, no plantains. Ensure salad dressing is oil and vinegar-based, without sugar or high-carb ingredients.
Watch out for
Sugary marinades for the steak, hidden sugars in pre-made salad dressings, larger-than-expected portions of higher-carb vegetables in salad (e.g., too much tomato or bell pepper).
