Vegetable Frittata (1 Piece)

Keep the frittata portion moderate and avoid adding high-starch sides such as toast, potatoes, or pastry.

Use mostly non-starchy vegetables in the frittata, such as spinach, mushrooms, zucchini, peppers, broccoli, or asparagus.

Add protein and fat for steadier absorption, for example eggs, cheese, tofu, salmon, or avocado.

Have a side salad with leafy greens, cucumber, tomatoes, olive oil, and vinegar rather than bread or hash browns.

Choose a small serving of berries or plain Greek yogurt if you want something alongside the meal.

Take an easy 10–20 minute walk after eating to help reduce the post-meal rise.
