I'd try less carbs and more protein personally, and probably adding more fat will slow the glucose spike BUT be careful with such tweaks and test carefully as you're on insulin. Might be worth discussing dropping the glic as it's less controllable than insulin, it may be causing you to continue to generate insulin when you no longer need it between meals, hence the lows.

You could try porridge or weetabix. What about a slice of wholemeal bread?
