Including high-fiber foods in your diet can be a great approach to help digestion, control blood sugar, and feel more energised if you recently adopted a vegan lifestyle. Plant-based dietitian Alexa Dawn offers her best high-fiber vegan dinner options ideal for novices.
Breakfast would be chia pudding topped with almond butter and berries.
Eat a chia pudding high in fibre and good fats first thing in morning. Combine chia seeds, almond milk, and a small maple syrup drizzle; let it set overnight. Top first thing in the morning with fresh berries and almond butter. “Chia seeds are loaded with fibre, helping to keep your digestive system regular,” Alexa notes.
Lunch is an avocado and black bean salad.
Try an avocado and black bean salad for a lunchtime filler. Combine black beans, chopped avocado, corn, tomatoes, and spinach; then drizzle olive oil and lime juice. “Black beans are a great source of fibre; the good fats in avocado will help keep you satisfied,” Alexa notes.
Dinner is lentil stew with sweet potatoes.
A substantial sweet potato and lentil stew is both filling and nouraging for dinner. In a pot with vegetable broth and your preferred seasonings mix sweet potatoes, lentils, carrots, onions, and tomatoes. “Sweet potatoes and lentils both have a lot of fibre, thus they make this stew the ideal dinner for helping digestion,” Alexa says.
Alexa’s high-fiber vegan meal plans are meant to help novices transition into a plant-based lifestyle while profiting from fibre in numerous ways. “When you eat foods high in fibre, you help your body function naturally and feel more energised all through the day.” She says.
