๐ŸŒŸ Meal Prep Magic: High-Protein Lasagne for Balanced Blood Sugars! ๐ŸŒŸ

Struggling to manage Type 2 diabetes without sacrificing flavour? Our High-Protein, Low-Carb Lasagne (just 6g carbs per serving!) is designed to help you stay on track. ๐Ÿโœจ

Why does it work for diabetes management?
โœ… 19g protein slows digestion, reducing glucose spikes.
โœ… Minimal refined carbs (whole-wheat lasagne sheets used sparingly) keep blood sugar stable.
โœ… High fibre from veggies (onions, carrots) supports insulin sensitivity.

Pair it smarter to avoid insulin spikes:
๐Ÿฅ— Side salad: Rocket, cucumber, and cherry tomatoes with olive oil. The extra fibre slows sugar absorption.
๐Ÿฅฆ Steamed greens: Tenderstem broccoli or spinach for added magnesium (linked to insulin regulation).
โŒ Skip garlic bread/pasta sides โ€“ they add unnecessary carbs!

Pro tip: Letting the lasagna rest for 30 minutes isnโ€™t just for neat slices; it helps your body process the meal more gradually.

๐Ÿ‘‰ 6 servings | 251 kcal | Full recipe below!
Perfect for weekly prep, freeze portions for easy, healthy dinners.

Myth Busting

Today, letโ€™s set the record straight! ๐Ÿง โšก๏ธType 2 Diabetes isnโ€™t just about sugar. Itโ€™s about insulin resistance, where your body struggles to use insulin effectively. Genetics, activity levels, sleep, stress, and even liver health play HUGE roles!
๐Ÿ” Myth: "Only overweight people get T2D."
โœ… Fact: While weight is *a* risk factor, thin individuals can develop it too! Genetics and metabolic health are key.

To everyone managing Type 2 Diabetes: You are MORE than your HbA1c or glucose reading. ๐Ÿซถ Some days are tough. Some wins feel invisible. But YOU are resilient, learning, and trying, and that matters.
