How to consume french nicoise salad without glucose spikes
Incorporate More Fiber
Add extra non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, or broccoli to your salad to increase fiber content, which can help moderate blood sugar levels.
Choose Whole Grains
If your salad includes any grains, opt for quinoa or barley instead of white rice or pasta to slow down the absorption of glucose.
Include Healthy Fats
Add a moderate amount of healthy fats such as avocado, nuts, or seeds to your salad. These fats can help slow digestion and prevent spikes in blood sugar.
Add Protein
Ensure your salad has a good source of protein like grilled chicken, tofu, or fish. Protein helps to stabilize blood sugar levels.
Use Vinegar-Based Dressings
Choose dressings made with vinegar, such as a classic vinaigrette, instead of creamy dressings. Vinegar has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity.
Limit Sweet Ingredients
Avoid adding sweet toppings like dried fruits or sweetened nuts to your salad. Instead, use fresh berries if you want a hint of sweetness.
Control Portion Sizes
Be mindful of the portion sizes of carbohydrates in your salad, such as potatoes or beans, to avoid overloading on carbs.
Hydrate Well
Drink plenty of water throughout the meal. Staying hydrated can help your body manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Eat Slowly
Take your time to eat your salad. Eating slowly allows your body to better regulate blood sugar levels by giving it time to adjust to the intake.
Pair with a Balanced Meal
Ensure the rest of your meal is balanced with fiber, protein, and healthy fats. This can help mitigate any potential spikes from the salad itself.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
