How to consume Burrito Bowl without glucose spikes
Balance Your Bowl
Add more non-starchy vegetables like lettuce, spinach, or bell peppers to your burrito bowl to increase fiber content and slow down glucose absorption.
Choose Whole Grains
Opt for brown rice or quinoa instead of white rice as the base of your bowl. These options provide more fiber and nutrients, helping to moderate blood sugar levels.
Include Healthy Fats
Add healthy fats such as avocado or a drizzle of olive oil. These fats can help slow digestion and reduce the impact on blood sugar.
Incorporate Beans
Include beans like black beans or kidney beans, which are high in fiber and protein, to help stabilize glucose levels.
Portion Control
Be mindful of portion sizes for high-carbohydrate ingredients like rice or beans to avoid consuming excessive amounts of carbohydrates at once.
Add Protein
Include a lean protein source such as grilled chicken, tofu, or fish. Protein can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates and prevent spikes in blood sugar.
Mind the Toppings
Avoid sugary sauces and opt for salsa or a squeeze of lime juice for added flavor without added sugar.
Hydrate Sufficiently
Drink water before and during your meal to aid digestion and help maintain stable blood glucose levels.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to chew thoroughly and enjoy your meal, as eating slowly can help prevent overeating and allow your body to better manage blood sugar levels.
