How to consume mexican salad without glucose spikes
Choose Leafy Greens
Opt for a base of lettuce, spinach, or kale for your salad. These vegetables have minimal impact on blood sugar levels.
Incorporate Beans
Add black beans or pinto beans to your salad. They are high in fiber and can help moderate glucose spikes.
Add Healthy Fats
Include avocado slices or a small amount of cheese. Healthy fats can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.
Use Lean Proteins
Consider adding grilled chicken or shrimp. Protein helps to stabilize blood sugar levels.
Select Whole Grains
If you want to add some grains, choose quinoa or brown rice in moderation.
Go Easy on the Dressing
Use a vinaigrette made with olive oil and vinegar, or a light squeeze of lime for flavor without added sugars.
Top with Nuts and Seeds
Sprinkle some chia seeds, flaxseeds, or sliced almonds for added fiber and healthy fats.
Limit Starchy Vegetables
Avoid or limit corn and potatoes. Instead, use bell peppers, tomatoes, and cucumbers.
Avoid Sugary Additions
Skip dried fruits or sweetened sauces. Fresh, whole fruits like berries can be used sparingly if needed for sweetness.
Practice Portion Control
Keep an eye on portion sizes to avoid overeating, which can lead to a larger glucose spike.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
