    Mostly vegetables. If I'm a little low I'll add ground psyllium husks to my protein shake as a top up.

    Lots of vegetables.
    I add two teaspoons of psyllium powder to orange juice or protein shakes.

    Navy beans are a great source of fiber (19g fiber per cooked cup) and have some protein (15g)

    I also like adding flaxseed meal to my salads

    and veggies. LOTS of veggies.

    Here is a nice tortilla veggie wrap you can try for 10+ fiber - serves 4

    1 cup sliced onion
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    2 teaspoon barbecue sauce
    4 whole wheat tortillas
    2 tablespoon mayonnaise
    2 cups broccoli, cut in florets and steamed
    1 cup cauliflower, cut in florets and steamed
    a few slices dill pickle
    1/4 cup grated carrot
    1/4 cup grated red cabbage
    1/4 cup grated yellow squash
    1 cup shredded lettuce
    1 cup alfalfa sprouts
    a few slices of avocado

    Saute onion, when translucent add barbecue sauce.
    Heat your tortillas in skellet to soften
    Spread mayo on tortillas then pile the veggies and onion up to yellow squash in lines in the middle
    Top with lettuce, sprouts and avocado, then roll them up.
    It helps if you place a paper or some kind of wrap under each tortilla to help you roll them tight and keep the filling from falling out of the button.

    For us, it's all about root vegetables with the skins left on, fruits, baked beans, wholemeal bread, mulitgrain crackers and cereal bars.

    Weetabix bars are 98 calories and contain 5 grams of fibre, the most we have found in any bar so far and were recommended by our Dietician :-)

    I've never heard of those bars. Where do you get them?
