Mixed Salad Greens (1 Cup, Shredded Or Chopped) and Chicken Breast (100 G)

Check dressings, marinades, croutons, dried fruit, and sweetened drinks; choose unsweetened vinaigrette made with olive oil, vinegar, herbs, and spices instead.

Increase the non-starchy vegetable portion with options such as cucumber, broccoli, peppers, mushrooms, or avocado.

Add a small serving of fiber-rich legumes such as lentils or chickpeas to slow digestion and make the meal more balanced.

Include a modest portion of healthy fat, such as walnuts, almonds, pumpkin seeds, or avocado, while keeping portions appropriate for your calorie needs.

Eat the chicken and salad before any starches or fruit served with the meal, and eat at a slower pace.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating, if medically appropriate, to help reduce the post-meal rise.
