    • 1/2 lb (225g) kielbasa sausage (sugar-free), sliced
  • Veggies:
    • 2 cups (150g) fresh broccoli florets
    • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
    • 1/4 cup (25g) chopped green onions (for garnish)
  • Keto Honey Garlic Sauce:
    • 1/4 cup (60ml) low-sodium soy sauce (or coconut aminos for paleo)
    • 2 tbsp (30ml) keto-friendly sweetener (e.g., allulose syrup)
    • 2 tbsp (30ml) apple cider vinegar
    • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
    • 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1/2 tsp ground ginger

    • In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, keto sweetener, apple cider vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ground ginger. Set aside.
