How to make it keto
Explicitly request no rice, breadcrumbs, or any other carb-based fillers in the stuffing. Confirm only minced meat, herbs, and spices are used.
Watch out for
Small amounts of onion and garlic in the stuffing. Ensure no hidden breadcrumbs or rice are used by the restaurant. Pine nuts contribute minimal carbs but can add up if excessive.
