I haven't eaten rice since last Oct when I switched to Low carb. Tonight I thought I would give it a go. I had 125g of pilau with a chicken tikka masala (made at home).
BG before dinner = 4.6, 90 mins after 6.1, 120 mins after 5.7. So I had a spike of 1.5 and then it drops off. I'm quite chuffed with that but I thought I would post to see what others thought.
This does NOT mean I am going to be eating rice every week but it is goo to have options.
I did test gnocchi earlier this week (only a handful) with little impact ( I went from 4.8 to 5.4) so pretty good.
I still really want to test porridge (my standard breakfast before diagnosis) but I am approaching that one with trepidation. Any ideas on toppings would be appreciated. Cinnamon seems like a good one.
