Recipes: High Fiber

Homemade Granola

Homemade Granola
Michelle Marine
Granola is a delicious treat at our house. We love to eat it by the handful or mixed with yogurt & berries. It’s a fabulous and healthy snack, breakfast, or lunch.

Extra Healthy Granola

Extra Healthy Granola
Parent Earth
This granola recipe has protein from nuts, omega 3′s from flax seeds and is low in sugar. We are a busy family so when we cook, we do it in bulk to last for many meals. Feel free to cut down this recipe and adjust it to your taste – for example, sometimes I add a bit of salt.

Carrot Apple Fiber Muffins

Carrot Apple Fiber Muffins
Micaela Preston
Fresh homemade carrot juice just can't be beat but I've always felt a little bit badly about all the leftover fiber that goes to waste. So I decided to create a recipe for muffins that uses that up that fiber! The result was delicious and I felt like a goody-two-shoes for using the whole carrot!

Catherine McCord’s Spookie Smoothie

Catherine McCord’s Spookie Smoothie
Catherine McCord
I’m pretty lucky to have kids who eat their greens. But even if I didn’t, I think this Spooky Green Smoothie would be irresistible to them. If you have a kid who avoids eating his or her greens, this drink treat (just in time for Halloween) may just be the answer to your prayers.

Broccoli and Cheddar Soup 54321

Broccoli and Cheddar Soup
Stacie Billis
Broccoli and cheddar are a perfect combination for a family meal. Kids love cheese with their broccoli; it’s healthful, so long as you skip the cream and use a modest amount of all-natural cheese; and, handled delicately, the combo makes for simple and sophisticated flavor.

South African Pumpkin Fritters

South African Pumpkin Fritters
Cricket Azima
Pumpkin isn't just for Halloween! This low calorie vegetable is very high in fiber and Vitamin A.

Jack and the Beanstalk Salad

Jack and the Beanstalk Salad
Mambo Sprouts
This is a delicious, light salad that features beans of many varieties.

Lunchtime Lentil Soup

Lunchtime Lentil Soup
Domenica Catelli
Don’t be intimidated if you have never cooked with lentils. These tiny legumes are full of flavor, nutrient dense and cook in just 15 minutes.

Crispy Baked Taquitos with Black Bean Filling 43211

Crispy Baked Taquitos with Black Bean Filling
Aviva Goldfarb
Our family likes our taquitos baked until they are crispy, and then smothered with salsa. Serve them with watermelon, which also helps counteract the effects on your body of the salt from this recipe.

Multigrain Hot Cereal with Apples and Raisins

Multigrain Hot Cereal with Apples and Raisins
Earthbound Farm
A steaming bowl of hot cereal is one of the most comforting ways to start the day. Our version combines rolled oats, quinoa, and buckwheat groats (kasha) for a tasty, high-protein breakfast loaded with fiber.
