Healthy Recipes Nutrient-Focused Diets High-Fiber Recipes High-Fiber Dinner Recipes 11 New High-Fiber Dinners to Make This Month By Dillon Evans Dillon Evans Dillon Evans fell in love with cooking at a very young age. He remembers the novel experiences of microwaving a bowl of oatmeal without his parents' permission and asking to make his mother's morning pot of coffee. These moments became catalysts for his interest in cooking and baking.

Fans are calling recipes like our Mushroom Piccata Pasta “a hit!” Or, they suggest preparing a pot of Harira (Moroccan Tomato, Lentil & Beef Soup) when “you like chili, but want something a little different.” No matter what you choose to make, we’re sure you’ll want to add it to your rotation. 01 of 11 Mushroom Piccata Pasta Photography: Rachel Marek, Food stylist: Kelsey Moylan, Prop stylist: Gabriel Greco In this vegetarian rendition of chicken piccata, a medley of mixed mushrooms steps in as a substitute for chicken, maintaining the zesty caper-infused sauce. The combination of oyster, cremini and shiitake mushrooms adds the most flavor, though you can choose a single mushroom variety if you have a preference. Streamline your prep by opting for pre-sliced mushrooms, a timesaving hack for this flavorful dish. View Recipe 02 of 11 Roasted Chickpea & Cauliflower Pitas with Sun-Dried Tomato Sauce Photographer: Robby Lozano, Food Stylist: Nicole Hopper, Prop Stylist: Tucker Vines Inspired by a trend made popular by Catherine Perez (@plantbasedrd), these pitas are piled high with roasted veggies for a satisfying vegetarian dinner. Be sure to dry the chickpeas well or they won’t crisp up in the oven. Wet chickpeas will also create steam that may prevent the cauliflower from getting nicely browned. Bibb lettuce works well with these pitas, but a handful of arugula leaves would be just as nice. If you have it, a garam masala or shawarma spice blend can be used in place of the spices. View Recipe 03 of 11 A Bowl of Harira Is Like a Hug from Morocco during Ramadan Photographer: Rachel Marek, Food stylist: Lauren McAnelly, Prop stylist: Gabriel Greco Harira is a tomato-based soup featured at the center of many Moroccan tables during the month of Ramadan. It’s often enjoyed as part of iftar, or the meal served to break the fast each evening, along with dates, milk, hard-boiled eggs, semolina pancakes and chebakia (sesame cookies). This version features chickpeas, lentils, beef and noodles in a fragrant tomato broth, but there are endless variations on the soup. View Recipe 04 of 11 Creamy Feta & Tomato Pasta: “You’d Never Guess It Was Only 5 Ingredients” Photographer: Greg DuPree, Prop stylist: Shell Royster, Food stylist: Emily Hall This creamy feta-and-tomato pasta puts a satisfying vegetarian dinner on the table using only 5 simple ingredients. Cherry tomatoes are a go-to when tomato season is not at its peak. Grape tomatoes provide a sweet and juicy alternative, ensuring a satisfying and flavorful meal. View Recipe 05 of 11 Chicken Caesar Salad Photographer: Jen Causey, Food Stylist: Julian Hensarling, Prop Stylist: Josh Hoggle This timeless chicken Caesar salad features a zesty dressing made with Greek-style yogurt. Our dressing calls for anchovy paste, which adds that signature savory flavor Caesar salad is known for. Any leftover anchovy paste can be used to enhance vinaigrettes, dips or sauces. You can use whole anchovies, if you prefer, but you’ll need to blend them or mash them with the flat side of a large chef’s knife before adding them to the dressing. View Recipe 06 of 11 Baked Feta & Tomato Chickpeas Photographer: Fred Hardy, Food Stylist: Jennifer Wendorf, Prop Stylist: Lydia Pursell This simple baked feta casserole recipe turns cherry tomatoes, feta cheese and chickpeas into a hearty, protein-rich vegetarian meal. After baking, it creates a savory-sweet tomato–olive oil sauce ideal for slathering on pita bread. Feta cheese in brine melts more readily compared to dry, crumbled feta, so it’s worth seeking out. For a different take, replace the chickpeas with creamy white beans. View Recipe 07 of 11 Slow-Cooker Marry Me Chicken with Barley Photographer: Fred Hardy, Food Stylist: Jennifer Wendorf, Prop Stylist: Lydia Purcell Fall in love with this easy version of Marry Me Chicken—a dish with chicken and julienned sun-dried tomatoes swimming in a creamy sauce. Our version adds cherry tomatoes and zucchini for an added boost of veggies, plus barley which soaks up the sauce and makes this dish a complete meal all in one pot. Make sure the barley is completely submerged in the liquid so it cooks evenly. View Recipe 08 of 11 Massaged Kale Salad with Roasted Squash & Chickpeas Photography: Rachel Marek, Food stylist: Kelsey Moylan, Prop stylist: Gabriel Greco This kale salad is piled high with roasted butternut squash, red onion and toasty chickpeas. The kale starts to break down as you “massage” it, soaking up the lemony dressing. Za’atar, a Middle Eastern seasoning with dried herbs, sesame seeds and sumac, adds a bright, earthy taste. You can swap it out for chili powder for a slightly different flavor profile. View Recipe 09 of 11 Slow-Cooker Three-Bean Chili Mac Photographer: Fred Hardy, Food Stylist: Jennifer Wendorf, Prop Stylist: Lydia Purcell Chili meets mac and cheese in this fix-it-and-forget-it slow-cooker dinner. Hot tomato sauce, a Mexican canned tomato sauce that also includes spices and chiles for heat, kicks up the flavor. If you can’t find hot tomato sauce, regular canned tomato sauce with a tablespoon of chili powder mixed in is a good substitute. You can cook the pasta separately and add it in at the end of cooking, or use our alternative method and cook the pasta in the slow cooker with a few adjustments listed below. View Recipe 10 of 11 Sheet-Pan Gnocchi with Broccoli & White Beans Photographer: Fred Hardy, Food Stylist: Jennifer Wendorf, Prop Stylist: Lydia Pursell This effortless dish comes together on two baking sheets for easy preparation and a fast cleanup. A blend of lemon and broccoli mixes with tender gnocchi and rich cannellini beans, all brought together with a generous drizzle of olive oil. For an added protein boost, toss in some shrimp or flaked cooked salmon. View Recipe 11 of 11 Slow-Cooker Cauliflower & Chickpea Tikka Masala Photographer: Fred Hardy, Food Stylist: Jennifer Wendorf, Prop Stylist: Lydia Purcell This slow-cooker tikka masala is an ideal set-and-forget option for anyone craving veggies and warm, cozy spices. A combination of garam masala, curry powder and cumin adds to the complex flavor. If you don’t have any garam masala on hand, you can swap it out for additional curry powder. We love how brown rice soaks up the sauce, but you could easily skip the rice and serve this with warm whole-wheat naan instead. View Recipe Was this page helpful? Thanks for your feedback!
