Limit the amount of quinoa to a moderate portion size, as controlling the quantity can help manage blood sugar levels.

Include non-starchy vegetables like broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers to your meal. These can slow down digestion and reduce the spike in glucose.

Add a source of healthy fats such as avocado, olive oil, or a small handful of nuts. Fats can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Continue including chicken breast as a lean protein source, as it can help stabilize blood sugar.

Drink plenty of water before and during your meal to aid in digestion and regulate blood sugar levels.

Chew your food slowly and thoroughly to enhance digestion and reduce the speed at which glucose enters the bloodstream.

Incorporate a splash of vinegar or lemon juice over your quinoa or salad. The acidity can help moderate blood sugar spikes.
