Hummus (1 Tbsp) and Pita Bread (1 Small Pita (4 Inches Dia))

Reduce the pita portion and use a measured serving of hummus rather than eating directly from the container.

Replace some or all of the pita with crunchy non-starchy vegetables such as cucumber, bell pepper, celery, radishes, or broccoli.

Add protein to the meal, such as eggs, plain Greek yogurt, tofu, chicken, or fish, to slow the rise after eating.

Include a small serving of healthy fats, such as olives, avocado, walnuts, almonds, or seeds, alongside the hummus.

Choose hummus without added sugar and avoid sweetened drinks, juice, or desserts with the meal.

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