Lamb Chop (1 Large (8 Oz, With Bone, Raw) (Yield After Cooking, Bone Removed))

Choose plain grilled or roasted lamb chops and avoid sweet glazes, barbecue sauce, honey, or sugary marinades.

Keep the lamb portion moderate and trim visible fat; larger high-fat meals can delay digestion and prolong a rise in blood sugar.

Pair lamb chops with non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, asparagus, cauliflower, or a leafy salad instead of fries, mashed potatoes, or white bread.

If adding a starch, choose a small serving of lentils, chickpeas, or barley rather than refined grains or potatoes.

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

Check your response by testing or monitoring blood sugar after the meal, since sauces, side dishes, and portion size often drive the increase more than lamb itself.
