What can I get at Mexican restaurant on keto?
Have no fear. If you happen to be out at your favorite Mexican restaurant and new to the keto or a low carb diet, there’s still great options that you can enjoy. Are you missing the tortilla chips and salsa? Ask for raw veggies and queso instead!
Consider these Mexican dishes:
- guacamole
- burrito bowl with lettuce (skip the rice and beans)
- grilled chicken, shrimp and steak
- carne asada
- chimichanga (skip the burrito)
- taco salad (if served in a tortilla shell, leave it!)
- tortilla soup
- lettuce tacos
- chicken or steak fajitas (skip the taco shells, rice and beans)
Should you be wanting a margarita, ask your server if they can do a margarita with no sweet and sour mix. You can also do tequila with a splash of sprite.
