Diabetes & Carb content:
👉 CARBOHYDRATE CONTENT:
This Thai yellow curry prawn soup serves 4-6 people
– 15,5g of UNCOOKED Buckwheat pasta equals to 10g carbs
– The carb content of the broth is negligible since the total of the vegetables is 13g carbs for 4-6 people.
I have used 400g veg. Every 300g of vegetables equals to 10g carbs,
➡️ 400g of vegetables is 13g carbs.
👉 MEAL FOR ONE PERSON. I WOULD USE:
– 31g UNCOOKED buckwheat pasta with the soup (20g carbs)
– 1 Protein type yogurt like OIKOS blueberries (5g carbs) or a normal fruit yogurt (15g carbs)
– 100g of fruit like kiwi, pear, apple (10g carbs) The total for this meal would be either 35g carbs with the Oikos OR 45g carbs with the fruit yogurt.
