Beware of the carbs in the rice and the sugar levels in the dried fruit, avoid currants raisins and sultanas cos they are dried grapes and grapes are mega high in sugar.and use brown rice cos the fibre in brown rice with fill u up quicker which means a smaller portion and a smaller portion = less carbs SIMPLES

It depends on your carb loading tolerance, serving size, and what your 2 hour numbers are. Adjust serving size as needed.
