Sabudana khichdi, salted and toasted peanuts and foxnuts, 1 cucumber (1 Serving)

Reduce the sabudana khichdi portion substantially and do not eat it on its own; keep cucumber and the small portion of peanuts/foxnuts as sides rather than adding more sabudana.

Add a protein-rich side such as plain paneer, tofu, or unsweetened Greek yogurt/curd to slow absorption and improve fullness.

Increase non-starchy vegetables with the meal, such as cucumber, tomato, spinach, mushrooms, capsicum, or cauliflower, prepared without sugary sauces.

Keep toasted peanuts to a measured small handful and foxnuts to a small bowl; avoid sweetened, jaggery-coated, or flavored versions.

Avoid pairing this meal with fruit juice, sweet drinks, sugar, honey, jaggery, potatoes, or dessert; choose water, unsweetened tea, or buttermilk instead.

Take a gentle 10–20 minute walk soon after eating, and if spikes remain large, consider replacing most of the sabudana with paneer/tofu and vegetables on future occasions.
