Start by reducing the portion size of nachos you consume. Eating smaller amounts can help manage glucose spikes.

Incorporate a source of lean protein, such as grilled chicken or black beans, to your nachos. Protein can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Add healthy fats like avocado slices or a small amount of guacamole. Healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Replace regular tortilla chips with whole-grain or multigrain versions which can be less likely to cause a spike.

Add a variety of non-starchy vegetables like bell peppers, tomatoes, and onions to your nachos for additional fiber and nutrients.

Opt for a low-fat cheese option to reduce the meal's overall calorie and fat content without sacrificing flavor.

Use a small amount of reduced-fat sour cream or substitute it with plain Greek yogurt for a lower-calorie, protein-rich alternative.

Accompany your meal with a glass of water to help with digestion and maintain hydration.

Take your time to enjoy the meal. Eating slowly can help prevent overeating and allow your body to better regulate blood sugar levels.

Check your levels post-meal to understand how your body responds and adjust your habits accordingly.
