The key, as with anything keto, is to eliminate as many carbs as possible. So go for that nice fatty burger—just keep it protein-style and ditch the bun.
Replace those carbs with keto-friendly things like cheese, avocado, bacon, butter—gah, I’m getting hungry just writing that list. (Wanna meet up for a double-bacon avocado cheeseburgers later?)
If you go for a salad, be careful with the dressing. A lot of dressings are sneaky and have added sugars, which is a problem for us keto dieters. That’s why I recommend substituting most dressings for simple oil (olive or avocado) and vinegar.
And if you’re in a pinch, bring help.
Remember all those awesome keto snacks we talked about the other day? They’re a great backup plan for the social keto.
So, in review:
1. Order full-fat, full-flavor foods
2. Replace carbs with keto-friendly substitutes
3. Keep dressings deliciously simple
4. When needed, bring backup
