Move over, protein.
Fibre is having a moment right now, ushering in an era of “fibremaxxing,” in which enthusiasts increase (and often go far beyond) their recommended daily intake. We don’t recommend that. What we
do recommend is looking for simple ways to get fibre into your diet, including upping your intake of pulses such as lentils, beans and chickpeas. Try this week’s recipe for
bean-boosted bread, which incorporates pureed white kidney or navy beans into your bread for a boost.
