Boiled Egg (1 Large) and Toasted French or Vienna Bread (Includes Sourdough) (1 Slice, Medium)

Reduce the bread portion first: try one smaller slice or half a roll, and avoid adding jam, honey, sweet spreads, or sugary drinks.

Replace French/Vienna bread with a small serving of dense 100% rye or pumpernickel bread; choose versions with intact grains and no added sugar.

Keep the boiled egg, and add non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, tomatoes, cucumber, mushrooms, or peppers to increase volume and fiber.

Add a modest amount of fat or protein alongside the meal, such as avocado, plain Greek yogurt, cheese, or a small handful of nuts, rather than eating bread by itself.

Eat the egg and vegetables before the bread, then take a 10–20 minute easy walk after the meal if safe for you.

Check your glucose response with different bread types and portions; if large spikes continue, discuss them with your diabetes clinician or dietitian.
