Sweet potatoes fit this bill.
It's also my understanding that Fish Oil helps to control blood sugar spikes, and that why it's yet ANOTHER good reason to supplement with FO daily.
Also, look into Chromium (specifically chromium nicotinate glycinate chelate) which helps with insulin sensitivity. It helps in this area as well.

You're concerned with sugar spikes. I gave you the real tips that aren't as well known.
For foods it's easy enough to Google. For example this is great information here:

If you look at the page you sent me regarding the skinny guy's muscle building diet, it confirms what I am saying. Direct quotes:
"Eat Meat-Nothing says muscle gain more then a nice protein-rich juicy steak. Foods like meat are packed with protein and often contain all 8 essential amino acids for building muscle. Shoot for 1 gram of protein per body-weight each day as this is the max amount that can be fully utilized by the body."
and
"Your daily caloric intake is roughly 15 times your current bodyweight. If you were to add 500 calories to this number it is possible to gain up to 1lb of lean muscle every week!"
I am 143lbs X 15 = 2,145
However, with my job(outside carpentry work), you can add 3,324 calories burned, which makes:
5,469 + 500 = 5,969
Now, that is a LOT of calories. So unless I've done this wrong, I'll be eating almost constantly AND I'll be getting WAY to much protein.
