Move over protein, we’re fibermaxxing now. Protein has been all the rage in the past year, but it’s just as important to get your fiber in. It’s crucial for digestive health, improves your gut bacteria, and helps you feel full for longer, among so many other benefits. The good news is, some of our favorite ingredients are already fiber-packed. The best place to look for fiber is in the ingredients you already know and love. Chickpeas, beans, sweet potatoes, kale, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds are all already #fibermaxxing, so we’ve compiled a list of our favorite recipes that let them shine so you can stay on track with your fiber goals.

For breakfasts that will keep you feeling full and satisfied all day, try our blended overnight oats, chia pudding, or our favorite green smoothie. Looking for a hearty lunch? We love our sweet potato couscous, sunshine bowls, or our cabbage Caesar salad. Need a sweet treat? Try our chocolate peanut butter banana bark—it’s full of fiber and is also a perfect afternoon or post-dinner snack. Hungry for more ways to add fiber to your diet?
