https://www.reddit.com/r/Keto_Food/comments/6ugjj3/giant_taco_salad_from_black_bear_diner_no_beans/- Dear r/keto, I give you: THE CHEESEBURGER SALAD!
This is a new offering at Black Bear Diner (I think it is mostly West Coast) and my new staple food order when we dine there!
They also have a nice bacon ranch dressing with no carbs to go with it.
