This Keto Wendy’s Chili is a low-carb, high-protein version of the traditional fast food. This substantial chili provides a filling, tasty meal without the additional carbs because it is made with a combination of bold spices, lots of ground beef, & Keto versions of veggies like garlic, bell peppers, & onions. It has no additional sugar or fillers and also provides a rich & comforting texture with ingredients like tomato paste, chopped tomatoes, & beef broth. When the chili starts to simmer perfectly, the spices combine to intensify the dish’s flavorful depth. When the flavors start to develop, leftovers only grow better, making it a terrific dinner prep alternative. We can garnish this dish with freshly chopped parsley for visual appeal and additional taste.
