How to consume Enchilada With Cheese And Beef without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Limit the portion size of the enchilada to reduce the overall carbohydrate intake.

Add Vegetables

Incorporate non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, bell peppers, or zucchini into the enchilada or as a side dish to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Opt for Whole Grains

If possible, use a whole wheat or corn tortilla instead of a refined flour one to increase fiber content.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado slices or a dollop of plain Greek yogurt to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Pair with Protein

Increase the protein content by adding more lean beef or incorporating beans into your meal, as protein can help slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Stay Hydrated

Drink water throughout your meal to help with digestion and potentially lessen the glucose spike.

Engage in Light Physical Activity

Take a short walk after your meal to help your body use the glucose more effectively.

Eat Slowly

Chew your food thoroughly and eat at a slower pace to give your body time to process and manage the glucose load better.

Monitor Timing

Consider spacing out your carbohydrate intake throughout the day to avoid large spikes at any one meal.

Use Spices Wisely

Incorporate spices such as cinnamon or turmeric into your meal if appropriate, as they may help with blood sugar regulation.
