I want things I can snack on that is high in fiber.also,things I can make for lunch for me and my 1 yr old.reason why I'm wanting this is cause I'm having problems with my stomache and colon,plus I really want my daughter to have a healthy start.she also has bowel problems.please give a long list of foods.also will this make me fat?oh and if I'm eating out at a fastfood place what is some good things to eat?
I love beans and there are so many ways to prepare them: black bean soup pintos with sausage red beans and rice black bean burger or meatloaf
Things like lentils, black beans and chick peas are delicious and high in fiber, so are most other dried beans and peasGreen vegetables like broccoli, spinach, and artichoke are too! Also some fruits: pears are great, and dried apricots and dried figs are high in fiber as wellThen of course there are your whole grain itemsAll of these are things I love to eat! Try brown rice with black beans, homemade salsa, and cilantroTo really get your whole grains, try using quinoa instead of rice every now and then (although it is expensive)Spinach and artichoke sauteed with garlic is divineTry making hummus out of chick peas and eat it with some pita breadOr lentil soup with onions, tomatoes, and cuminAs for broccoli, I like it by itself, just boiled in water that is good and salty and then drainedChoosing whole wheat bread instead of white bread can help, but oatmeal is even betterAnd enjoy some dried fruits for dessert.
Apples, bananas, and peanut butter actually have a good fiber contentBeans are very high fiber, so anything with beans, like burritos, are goodMost cold and hot cereal has a lot of fiber.
Flax is a great way to get your fiber There's also fruits veggies, oats, all-bran and nutsHopefully this helps.
