If you’re new here, these three are the place to start — the foundations everything else builds on.
Meal replacement shake with fiber shown in a glass with a straw beside a white shaker bottle and a ripe banana
Most meal replacement shakes fiber counts sit at about 5 grams per serving. Garden of Life’s organic powder leads our list with 8 grams, while a shake sold as “with Fiber” gives only 3.
Smoothie mix with added fiber shown as a tall pink berry smoothie with a spoon of powder and fresh berries beside it
The best fiber smoothie mixes give 5 to 7 grams per serving, but plenty of popular powders give 1 gram or none at all. A packet of Kuli Kuli Dark Chocolate leads with 7 grams, while a classic strawberry mix gives 0.
High fiber frozen meal shown in a black tray with brown rice, black beans, roasted vegetables and chicken pieces
The best high fiber frozen meals are bean, lentil and whole grain bowls with 7 to 12 grams of fiber, up to six times a frozen mac and cheese. Look for legumes in the first few ingredients and keep an eye on sodium, which runs from 400 to over 1,200 mg.
High fiber pasta shown with a bowl of chickpea pasta, bowls of other pasta and dry penne on a cloth covered table
The most high fiber pasta comes from beans: Explore Cuisine’s edamame spaghetti lists 13 grams of fiber per 2 ounce serving, more than four times classic Barilla spaghetti. Whole grain and lentil pastas land at 5 to 8 grams, a solid upgrade for most kitchens.
High fiber muffins shown with golden bran muffins on a wire cooling rack, one broken open to show the crumb
The best high fiber muffins give about 5 grams of fiber, five times a typical blueberry muffin. Most of them also carry 18 grams or more of added sugar, so bran muffins are better than their bakery case neighbors but still closer to a treat than a health food.
Pancakes with added fiber shown as a stack of whole grain pancakes topped with blueberries and a bowl of batter
A good high fiber pancake mix gives 5 to 7 grams of fiber per serving, about three times a standard buttermilk mix. Whole grain flours, bran and nut or coconut flours make the difference, while extra protein alone does not.
High fiber bagel shown with a seeded whole grain bagel sliced open and spread with cream cheese beside a plain bagel
High fiber bagels can be a healthy pick: a 100% whole wheat bagel from Thomas’ gives 7 grams of fiber, about five times a plain bagel of the same size. The catch is size, since most bagels carry 250 calories or more.
High fiber granola shown with a glass jar of crunchy oat granola with nuts, a small bowl of granola and a spoon
The high fiber granola leaders give 4 to 6 grams per small serving, led by keto and prebiotic blends that use added fibers like inulin. Most oat granolas land at 2 to 5 grams, and many carry more added sugar than fiber.
High fiber crackers shown with a plate of round seeded crispbreads and crackers beside bowls of hummus and dip
The high fiber crackers at the top are bran crispbreads and flax crackers: GG Scandinavian packs 4 grams into one 8 gram cracker, and Flackers gives 9 grams per serving. Triscuit and Wheat Thins land near 3 grams, while Ritz has none.
High fiber wraps and flatbreads shown with a stack of whole grain flatbreads and a rolled wrap packed with salad
The high fiber wraps with the most fiber per bite are thin, fiber-added lavash and low carb wraps, at 4 to 9 grams for 60 to 80 calories. Whole wheat pita lands near 4 grams, while naan, white pita and most spinach wraps give 1 to 2.
High fiber tortillas shown with a stack of whole wheat tortillas and a folded wrap filled with black beans and greens
The high fiber tortillas with the biggest numbers are low carb wraps like Mission Carb Balance, with 9 to 15 grams per serving. Whole wheat tortillas give 4 to 5 grams, and a standard flour tortilla gives about 1. Here’s how 9 popular options compare.
Protein bars with added fiber shown as a stack of chewy oat and nut bars on a cream colored plate on a light table
The protein bars with fiber that lead on paper carry 15 to 17 grams per bar, mostly from added fibers like soluble corn fiber and chicory root. Nut and date bars land closer to 4 or 5 grams. Here are 9 popular bars compared on fiber, protein and sugar.
