Most of us know we should be eating more fibre, but actually hitting that 30g daily target can feel like a bit of a challenge. That’s where a recipe like this comes in, a simple, "chuck-it-all-in" one-pot meal that makes hitting your goals a lot less hard work.
This nourishing soup will soon be a staple. It’s hearty, filling and packed with a variety of vegetables and pulses — the sort of ingredients your gut loves. Because it’s so versatile, you can easily swap in whatever you have in the fridge, making it a reliable go-to for a healthy lunch or a light dinner.
The real win here is how it makes you feel. High-fibre meals are brilliant for steady energy levels and keeping you satisfied for longer, so you’re not left searching for snacks an hour after eating.
Serious satisfaction: The combo of fibre and plant-based protein helps slow down digestion, keeping you full and focused. Supports your microbiome: A mix of different plants is one of the easiest ways to keep your gut microbes happy and diverse. Easy batch prep: This is one of those dishes that actually tastes better the next day, so it’s perfect for prepping ahead for the week.
