Salmon (100 G), Avocado (Calavo) (1 Serving), Kale (100 G), Spinach (100 G), Lemon (1 Fruit (2 1/8 Inches Dia)), Broccoli (100 G), Cauliflower (1 Cup), Hummus (1 Tbsp) and Capers (1 Tbsp, Drained)

Keep the salmon, avocado, and non-starchy vegetables as the base of the meal, and reduce the hummus portion first, since it is the most likely contributor to the rise.

Have the hummus with extra broccoli, cauliflower, kale, spinach, or cucumber rather than crackers, bread, pita, or chips.

Eat the salmon and vegetables before the hummus to slow digestion and blunt the post-meal rise.

Choose hummus with no added sugar and minimal oil; make it at home with chickpeas, tahini, lemon, garlic, and capers if desired.

Use lemon juice or a vinegar-based dressing on the vegetables, and avoid sweetened dressings or sauces.

Take a gentle 10–20 minute walk after the meal, if medically appropriate, to help lower the post-meal glucose response.
