Zaxby’s has some serious options for those of us on the keto diet! If you are sick of bunless sandwiches, then this is a great place to check out. One of my favorites is the naked traditional wings and dipping it in the tongue torch sauce. If you dip the wings instead of drowning your wings in it, that reduces the amount. You can easily get by with 1 oz. of sauce and have a very filling meal for just 6 net carbs.
