Looking for a sweet snack that wont wreck your blood sugar? This high protein yogurt dip is perfectly paired with fresh fruit and satisfies that sweet tooth without that post sugar crash.
So many times I find myself reaching for sweets in the afternoon. There is nothing like a latte and a piece of chocolate, or leftover cookie for that afternoon pick me up, am I right? Well, after wearing a CGM for a week, I realized what that habit was doing to my blood sugar and how that was contributing to my cravings. Since then, I have been more intentional about pairing my carbs with protein and fat, to minimize the blood sugar spike and keep me feeling full throughout the busy afternoons of playing Mom Taxi!
