Reduce the portion size of macaroni to help manage the impact on your blood sugar levels.

Incorporate high-fiber foods such as vegetables (e.g., broccoli, spinach, bell peppers) into your meal to slow down digestion and reduce spikes.

Pair macaroni with lean protein sources like chicken breast, tofu, or legumes (e.g., lentils, chickpeas) to help balance your meal.

Opt for whole grain or whole wheat macaroni as they are digested more slowly compared to refined versions.

Add healthy fats like avocados, nuts, or olive oil to your meal, which can aid in stabilizing blood sugar levels.

Use a small amount of vinegar or lemon juice as dressing for your pasta salad. The acidity can help moderate blood sugar spikes.

Cook your macaroni until it's al dente rather than overcooking, as this maintains a firmer texture and slower digestion.

Engage in light physical activity, like a short walk, after your meal to help your body utilize glucose more efficiently.

Eat slowly and chew thoroughly to give your body more time to process the carbohydrates.

Ensure adequate water intake throughout the day, which can support metabolic processes and help manage blood sugar levels.
