Remission-Friendly Meal

Remission-Friendly Meal: Power Lunch

If you’re aiming for remission of Type 2 diabetes, every meal becomes a choice toward health — not just a pause for calories. Today I’m sharing a remission-friendly power lunch, satisfying, delicious, low-glycemic, and metabolism-boosting.

Recipe and Instructions

• 4 oz grilled salmon (or plant-based alternative like lentil “steak”)

• 1 cup steamed broccoli

• ½ cup quinoa or cauliflower rice (for lower carb option)

• 1 cup mixed colorful salad greens

• 1 tbsp olive oil + lemon vinaigrette

• Sprinkle of chopped walnuts

How to Make It:

1. Grill or bake salmon with lemon-herb seasoning.

2. Steam broccoli until bright green and tender.

3. Cook quinoa or cauliflower rice.

4. Toss salad greens with olive-oil vinaigrette and walnuts.

5. Plate: salmon + broccoli + side quinoa/cauliflower + salad.

Why It Works for Remission:

• Salmon provides omega-3s and protein to support insulin sensitivity.

• Broccoli and greens are high in fiber and phytonutrients which help reduce inflammation.

• Quinoa/cauliflower rice offers flexible carb choice (younger women might choose quinoa; those older or managing weight might choose cauliflower rice).

• Healthy fat from olive oil and walnuts slows sugar absorption and keeps you full.

• All together: stable blood sugar, sustained energy, less hunger — all crucial for remission-focused lifestyle.

Tips & Variations:

• Swap salmon for tofu or tempeh for plant-based version.

• Use sweet potato instead of quinoa if you tolerate more carbs and are active.

• Add extra herbs/spices (turmeric + black pepper) for anti-inflammatory support.

When you’re aiming for remission, every meal counts. Choose foods that fuel, heal, and stabilize. This power lunch gives you one reliable tool.
