Roast peas, Little Gem, onions and croutons; tomato dal with greens

These recipes have a fibre count, giving a good approximation of how many grams of fibre they contain per portion. This should help you to achieve your target of at least 30g fibre a day, which is the amount recommended in NHS guidelines. Aside from my 12 hero vegetables — peas, carrots, cabbage, tinned beans, cauliflower, leeks, mushrooms, tomatoes, lentils, spinach, sweetcorn and broccoli — these recipes utilise a wide range of other, mostly whole plant ingredients that contribute fibre. The plants offer a complex blend of powerful nutrients: vitamins, flavonoids, polyphenols.

Sweetcorn, new potato and tomato pan-roast



The sweetcorn goes deliciously chewy and the tomatoes get soft and blistered, ready to be crushed into the other veg with your fork.

Serves 4
14g fibre per portion
Ready in 1¼ hours




Spinach, butter bean and walnut soup



This super-simple recipe makes the most of frozen spinach (though you can also use fresh), and has a lovely creamy texture.

Serves 4
8g fibre per portion
Ready in 30 minutes
