Include healthy fats like avocado or a small amount of nuts to your nachos. Fats can help slow digestion and prevent rapid spikes in blood sugar.

Opt for whole-grain or multigrain tortilla chips instead of regular ones. They digest more slowly and can help reduce spikes.

Add fiber-rich toppings such as black beans or lentils to your nachos. Fiber helps regulate blood sugar levels.

Use a reduced amount of cheese or choose a lower-fat option to decrease saturated fat intake while still enjoying the flavor.

Drink water or unsweetened beverages alongside your meal. Staying hydrated can help manage blood sugar levels.

Add a variety of vegetables like tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions to your nachos. This not only adds nutrients but also helps balance the meal.
