On festive or momentous occasions, you may want to surprise your guests with a delicious seaside bowl of Keto Tuscan-style shrimp for lunch or dinner. Some days automatically call out for straightforward sausages and vegetables.

It all depends on your mood, of course, as both are incredibly delicious, and best served at the right moment in life. Even if your guests aren’t following a Keto diet, they will not miss a thing. Perhaps the Tuscan shrimp could even be served as a mouthwatering appetizer?

The highlight of this meal, besides the fresh summer vegetables, is the sausage. If you have been in ketosis for long enough, you’ll likely have encountered numerous situations of unexpected and sneaky carbs.

The only way to win this battle is to check the ingredients each and every time. Naturally, you will want to avoid many condiments as the sugar really adds up! Even in spice blends and seasoning mixes, you will find some lurking carbs – use your best judgment accordingly.

And the ubiquitous sausage? That often has hidden high-carb ingredients, appearing as fillers, bulking agents, and preservatives, so buyers beware! There are plenty of Keto options out there, though you may have to shop around.
