How to consume Shakshuka without glucose spikes
Incorporate Protein and Healthy Fats
Add a source of protein such as grilled chicken, tofu, or chickpeas to your Shakshuka. You can also drizzle some olive oil or add avocado to help slow down the absorption of glucose.
Use Whole Grain Bread
Instead of white bread, opt for whole grain or whole wheat bread. These options are digested more slowly and help maintain stable blood sugar levels.
Add Leafy Greens
Include a side of leafy greens like spinach or kale. These vegetables have a low impact on blood sugar and add valuable nutrients to your meal.
Control Portion Sizes
Be mindful of your portion sizes. Eating smaller amounts can help manage blood sugar levels more effectively.
Include Fiber-Rich Vegetables
Add more fiber-rich vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, and eggplant to your Shakshuka. Fiber helps slow down the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates.
Eat Slowly and Mindfully
Take your time to eat. Eating slowly can help you to eat less and improve your body's response to the meal.
Drink Plenty of Water
Staying hydrated helps your body process sugars more efficiently. Aim to drink water with your meal.
Avoid Sugary Additions
Skip any additional sugar or sweeteners in your Shakshuka recipe. Stick with natural ingredients and spices for flavor.
Monitor Meal Timing
Try to eat your Shakshuka at the same time each day to help your body get used to a routine, which can help with better glucose management.
Limit Starchy Ingredients
Reduce the amount of starchy vegetables like potatoes in your Shakshuka. Opt for non-starchy vegetables instead.

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

I didn't follow any fancy diet, yet managed to educate myself around food, and built a sustainable & healthy lifestyle.
