On the face of it, fiber isn\u2019t a glamorous subject. Anything linked to your bowel movements isn\u2019t going to be overly exciting, so it\u2019s no surprise that the substance itself is less than exotic. Still, the nutrient is vital to everyday bodily functions, which is why you can\u2019t forget about it entirely. If anything, you probably need to add more fiber to your diet. However, it doesn\u2019t have to be boring, far from it. The incredible thing about this monotonous matter is that it\u2019s found in a range of ingredients. Therefore, if you add a splash of creativity and a dash of a can-do attitude, you can spice up your life and your meals!<\/span><\/p>\n

Eat Mexican Dishes<\/span><\/h2>\n

Straight off the bat. It doesn\u2019t get much better than eating Mexican food. If you\u2019ve had the pleasure of visiting the country, you\u2019ll know how good the meals are, from traditional tacos and enchiladas to sopes. A top tip – the sopes at <\/span>YellowBlissRoad.com<\/span><\/a> are very authentic. The great thing about Mexico is, the locals use lots of beans and avocado in their cooking, so most dishes are packed with fiber. You don\u2019t even have to research them as they\u2019re almost guaranteed to be fibrous!<\/span><\/p>\n

Have Avocado For Dessert<\/span><\/h2>\n

Speaking of avocado, it\u2019s not a shock if you already implement it throughout your diet. After all, the green fruit is one of the most popular ingredients in the world right now. However, the problem people have is that they overuse it, and it gets boring. What you need to do is keep on eating it for its fiber purposes, but mix up the meals. For example, there\u2019s nothing wrong with avocado and ice-cream for dessert. <\/span>Onegreenplanet.org<\/span><\/a> even points out that it\u2019s vegan, which means it\u2019s suitable for all dietary requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n

Switch Chips For Popcorn<\/span><\/h2>\n

Everyone loves to snack, and chips are the usual snack of choice. But, apart from being salty, they\u2019re full of empty calories. If you\u2019re screaming, \u201cthere aren\u2019t any snacks that are good for you,\u201d you\u2019re wrong. And, what you\u2019re about to see isn\u2019t a reference to fruit or veggies. Ladies and gents, we give you – popcorn. Yes, the snack of movie theaters around the world features <\/span>healthline.com’s<\/span><\/a> list of fibrous foods you should eat because it contains 14.4 grams of fiber per 100 gram serving. Just avoid adding too much salt and sugar as they ruin the calorie content.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stick With Brown<\/span><\/h2>\n

Carbs are the enemy. Well, they aren\u2019t, but they aren\u2019t great for you. On the flip side, they are full of fiber, so they aren\u2019t all bad, apart from the fact that they are starchy and require burning off or else they\u2019ll lead to weight gain. Ah. Thankfully, brown versions of staples such as bread, pasta, and rice are less fattening since they contain fewer chemicals. The good news is, they still have the same amount of fiber, which means you can enjoy a <\/span>spaghetti bolognese<\/span><\/a> without the intense feelings of guilt!<\/span><\/p>\n

Just because fiber isn\u2019t exciting doesn\u2019t mean the dishes are, too.<\/span><\/p>\n
