How to consume Seven Layer Salad (Lettuce Salad Made With A Combination Of Onion, Celery, Green Pepper, Peas, Mayonnaise, Cheese, Eggs And/Or Bacon) without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Reduce the portion size of the Seven Layer Salad to limit your carbohydrate intake, which can help in managing glucose spikes.

Increase Fiber Intake

Add more fiber-rich vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli to your salad. Fiber helps slow down the digestion process and reduces the impact on blood sugar.

Choose Low-Carb Dressings

Opt for dressings with little to no added sugars. Consider using olive oil and vinegar instead of mayonnaise to lower the calorie and carbohydrate content.

Add Protein

Incorporate additional protein sources such as grilled chicken, tofu, or nuts. Protein can help balance blood sugar levels by slowing down carbohydrate absorption.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Include a small amount of healthy fats, such as avocado or a handful of almonds, to help maintain steady blood sugar levels.

Opt for Whole Grains

If you wish to add grains, choose whole grain options like quinoa or brown rice that are digested more slowly.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout your meal to support digestion and help regulate blood sugar levels.

Eat Mindfully

Chew your food slowly and pay attention to your hunger cues to avoid overeating, which can exacerbate glucose spikes.

Exercise Regularly

Incorporate regular physical activity into your routine to improve insulin sensitivity and help manage blood sugar levels.

Monitor Blood Sugar

Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after meals to better understand how different foods affect your body and adjust your diet accordingly.
