How to make it keto
Request 'sin tortillas' (without tortillas) and 'sin flour' (no flour added to cheese). Ask for celery sticks, bell pepper strips, or pork rinds for dipping. Ensure no hidden sugars in seasoning.
Watch out for
Potential hidden flour as a thickener in the cheese (rare but possible), excessive onions or bell peppers if not specified, traditional high-carb dipping options (tortillas, chips).
