About This Calculation

The primary glycemic load contributors are frozen shredded hash browns (GL 18.3), yellow onion (GL 0.3), red bell pepper (GL 0.2). These ingredients account for the majority of the carbohydrate impact per serving.

Glycemic load is calculated as GL = (GI × Net Carbs per serving) ÷ 100, where GI is the glycemic index and net carbs exclude dietary fiber. Calculations draw on established nutritional references including USDA FoodData Central values and peer-reviewed glycemic index research.
