Fiber. Come at me.

both..

Quinoa is a nutritious seed that delivers plenty of protein, fiber, and key minerals. A single cup (185 grams) of cooked quinoa contains 222 calories, 8 grams of protein, 39 grams of carbohydrates, and 5 grams of dietary fiber

Beans have become pretty much my whole diet at this point

Pizza beans served over garlic bread are amazing

Beans are absolutely my thing — you're hitting exactly what I enjoy. Beans on toast gets me every time, though while I was travelling I came across a dish called lobio, and it's the richest bean stew I've ever had. If you're looking for new bean ideas, it's well worth a try.

I follow a strict high fiber diet, and honestly I'm doing terribly with it. How can I manage both high fiber and high protein at the same time? And still work around my allergies?

Give this a shot, my friend

This barley and lentil pouch that goes in the microwave gives you both extra fiber and extra protein. It's one of my favorites, and I use it in pasta, soups, stir fry, salads, and wraps:

365 by Whole Foods Market, Barley & Green Lentils, Ready-to-Heat, 8.8 Ounce

Beans, naturally, are another solid pick when you want fiber and protein together.

Bran flake cereal is something else I enjoy. Fiber content varies between brands; one option delivers 12 g of fiber alongside 10 g of protein (that protein figure assumes skim milk). Green bananas work in cereal too, haha. Since that AMA, I've been including more greenish bananas in what I eat.



Then there's oatmeal made with whey protein isolate for a high-protein version. The taste is roughly the same. Just like cereal, you can clearly toss in fruit, chia seeds, and so on.

Blend 3 scoops of powder with frozen fruit and greek yogurt, then add water or milk to loosen the consistency — that comes to 100 grams in 1 smoothie.

I really should follow that advice, since reaching my daily protein target is something I struggle with constantly.

On certain days, getting food down is a struggle; on others, it's no problem. Still, if your first post-gym meal packs 100 grams all at once, you wipe out a huge chunk of your target in that single sitting.

And when 6-10 hours have passed, forcing down another one if you need it is less of a battle than attempting to spread 100 grams of protein across the day anyway.

Each Christmas, when we have the rib roast, we hold onto the rib bones—typically 10-12 of them—and later use them for beef and barley. Delicious.

I’ve already cooked up my beef with barley!

Thanks for the tip @Calm Logic
