The biggest learning I have had in glucose management (though fixing problems with insulin is far more important) is that in what sequence you eat food is as imp as what you eat.
Eat 1. Veggies (Fiber) 2. Protein & Fats (meat/eggs/paneer etc) 3. Starch/Carbs if any at end
Multiple things happen when you do that.
1. Fibre isn’t broken down into glucose by our digestive system and when we eat fibre first it sort of fills the stomach which slows down the absorption/passage of carbs

Let’s talk about Hummus today. Honestly, all hummus recipes are similar. Mine is probably the same as many you see online. But over years I have gathered some tips and tricks that can help in making hummus creamier & lighter. Which means yummier #lockdownRecipes
First thing first. Everyone says a good hummus MUST have Tahini. But I think sesame seeds work just as well.
Lightly toast them. If you have time grind them to a paste with a bit of lemon juice. I am often lazy and dump them along the chickpeas
