Ground Chicken (1 Serving (85g))

Choose lean ground chicken with no added sugars, breadcrumbs, starches, or sweet sauces; check labels on pre-seasoned products.

Keep the chicken portion moderate and pair it with a large serving of non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, zucchini, cauliflower, peppers, or leafy salad.

Add fiber-rich sides such as lentils, chickpeas, black beans, or quinoa in a measured portion instead of refined grains or potatoes.

Include a source of unsaturated fat with the meal, such as avocado, olive oil, walnuts, almonds, or seeds, to slow digestion.

Avoid sweetened marinades, barbecue sauce, teriyaki sauce, and sugary condiments; season with herbs, spices, lemon, vinegar, garlic, or mustard instead.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating and monitor whether changes in recipe, portions, and meal timing improve your response.
