How to consume Italian without glucose spikes

Choose a smaller portion of al dente whole-grain pasta with a tomato-and-vegetable sauce instead of a large serving of refined pasta.

Add protein such as grilled chicken, salmon, shrimp, eggs, tofu, or beans to slow the rise from the meal.

Start with a non-starchy vegetable salad—such as leafy greens, cucumber, peppers, mushrooms, or zucchini—with olive oil and vinegar.

Replace breadsticks, garlic bread, and dessert with extra roasted vegetables or a side salad.

Prefer lentil- or chickpea-based pasta, and keep the sauce focused on vegetables, herbs, olive oil, and protein.

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