Eggs and avocado (1 piece)

Keep the meal simple: eggs, avocado, and non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, or broccoli; avoid adding bread, potatoes, sweet sauces, or fruit juice.

Use a moderate avocado portion, such as about one-quarter to one-half of a medium avocado, especially if the spike occurs after larger portions.

Choose cooking methods without added sugar or refined starches: scramble or fry eggs in a small amount of olive oil, and season with herbs, pepper, lemon, or salsa without added sugar.

Add extra fiber from vegetables or a small serving of beans or lentils if tolerated, rather than a refined carbohydrate side dish.

Eat slowly and stop when comfortably full; larger total meal portions can raise glucose even when the foods are generally low in carbohydrate.

Take a gentle 10–20 minute walk after eating, if safe and appropriate for you.
