Fried Egg (1 Large) and French or Vienna Bread (Includes Sourdough) (1 Slice, Medium (4 Inches X 2 1/2 Inches X 1 3/4 Inches))

Choose lentils, chickpeas, or black beans as the starch component instead of a refined starchy side.

Add a large serving of non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, peppers, or salad to increase fiber and reduce the relative starch portion.

Include avocado, nuts, or seeds with the meal to slow digestion and improve fullness.

Eat the egg, vegetables, and other protein-rich foods first; leave the starch portion until last.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating, if appropriate for your health and mobility.

Avoid sweetened drinks with the meal; choose water, unsweetened tea, or unsweetened coffee instead.
