Shrimp (100 G) and Mixed Salad Greens (1 Cup, Shredded Or Chopped)

Choose an unsweetened dressing made with olive oil, vinegar or lemon; avoid sweetened vinaigrettes, honey-based sauces, and sugary shrimp glazes.

Keep shrimp plain grilled, baked, or sautéed, and ask for sauces to be served on the side.

Add avocado, olives, or a small handful of nuts or seeds to slow digestion and make the meal more filling.

Include a modest portion of fiber-rich chickpeas or lentils if you need more substance, rather than bread, croutons, or sweet toppings.

Check packaged salad kits for hidden sugars in dressing, dried fruit, candied nuts, and crunchy toppings; use only the greens and add your own dressing.

Take a 10–15 minute easy walk after the meal and compare your glucose response with and without dressing or toppings to identify the trigger.
