How to consume Lasagna without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the serving size of lasagna to minimize the carbohydrate load in one sitting.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, or zucchini into your lasagna to add fiber and nutrients, which can help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Whole Grain Pasta

Use whole grain or whole wheat pasta sheets instead of regular pasta to increase fiber content.

Layer with Legumes

Include layers of lentils or chickpeas, which can add protein and fiber, slowing down the digestion process.

Protein Boost

Add lean protein sources like chicken breast, turkey, or tofu, which can help balance blood sugar levels when combined with carbohydrates.

Healthy Fats

Use a moderate amount of healthy fats like olive oil or avocados in your lasagna to slow down the carbohydrate absorption rate.

Serve with a Side Salad

Pair your meal with a side of leafy green salad, dressed with lemon juice and olive oil, to add fiber and antioxidants.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your meal to give your body time to process the food, which can help manage blood sugar levels better.

Hydration

Drink water before and during your meal to help with digestion and to moderate your appetite.

Physical Activity

Engage in light physical activity, such as a short walk, after eating to help your body use the glucose more efficiently.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after eating lasagna to understand how it affects you personally and adjust accordingly in the future.
