That's pretty good, though you may want to add something with protein to the meal to offset the carbs.
Have you ever looked into the Insulin Resistance Diet? I think it's great because it doesn't completely remove carbs from the diet, but shows how linking and balancing carbs with proteins during meals really helps keep blood sugars in balance.
I bought the book on Amazon.
