Include a protein source such as grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu with your pasta meal to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Mix in healthy fats like olive oil, nuts, or seeds with your pesto sauce to help slow digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Include low-carb vegetables such as spinach, zucchini, or broccoli to add fiber and nutrients, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.
