Opt for a base of lettuce, spinach, or kale for your salad. These vegetables have minimal impact on blood sugar levels.

Add black beans or pinto beans to your salad. They are high in fiber and can help moderate glucose spikes.

Include avocado slices or a small amount of cheese. Healthy fats can slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Consider adding grilled chicken or shrimp. Protein helps to stabilize blood sugar levels.

If you want to add some grains, choose quinoa or brown rice in moderation.

Use a vinaigrette made with olive oil and vinegar, or a light squeeze of lime for flavor without added sugars.

Sprinkle some chia seeds, flaxseeds, or sliced almonds for added fiber and healthy fats.

Avoid or limit corn and potatoes. Instead, use bell peppers, tomatoes, and cucumbers.

Skip dried fruits or sweetened sauces. Fresh, whole fruits like berries can be used sparingly if needed for sweetness.
