💗 Why is this helpful if you're monitoring your blood sugar levels?

✅ Avocado. It contains virtually no significant carbs and is rich in monounsaturated fats, fiber, and potassium.

✅ Beans are a good option, despite the carbs. The fiber helps smooth out the sugar spike.

✅ Lemon juice. The acid from citrus fruits can slightly reduce the postprandial glucose surge, especially when consumed with a carbohydrate-rich meal. However, it's not a cure or a way to compensate for a large serving of carbohydrates.

✅ In this salad, the bulk of the carbohydrates come from the beans and tomatoes, so portion size remains important. I would recommend 200-250 grams of the prepared salad per meal.

✅ If you are monitoring your blood sugar levels, it is recommended to exclude maple syrup from the sauce.
