Black Bean Burrito Bowl
This delectable and colourful bowl is so simple to make, you will want it for lunch every day! You can mix-up the veggies and wholegrain choices for more variety and adjust the spices that you add to the yoghurt dressing to suit.
If you have had issues tolerating legumes before, start with a small portion (1 dessertspoon) of well-rinsed, canned legumes and slowly build from there.

THE GUT FRIENDLY FIBRE GUIDE
An evidence-based guide for women to eat more fibre without making their gut feel worse
If eating more fibre has ever left you feeling worse, fibre probably wasn’t the problem. More likely, your gut just needed you to go slower.Â
This guide is based on the approach I use with women who want to eat more fibre without making their gut feel worse. We start with where you are now, then build from there slowly enough that your gut can keep up.
It’s food-first, weight-neutral and evidence-based, created by me and my team of Accredited Practising Dietitians.
