Of course psyllium husk is fairly cheap LOL. But who likes that goopy stuff?

However I prefer soups. Lately my breakfast (your lunchtime) has been bean soups. I'll make up about 2.5 quarts per 8 oz of dried beans. Can be any type: pinto, garbanzo, lentil, great northern... the list is long. I like to mix them up a bit too. Spices vary, but the addition of curry complements many a bean and soup for that matter. Also, I've been experimenting with chowders since potatoes have lots of fiber.
Basically, after cooking I'll use a slotted-spoon to remove about
half the solids. I try to get all of any meat out, which is usually sausage or chicken wings. Then I hit it with the stick blender until well incorporated. Then the remainder goes back into the soup and adjusted to taste with salt. Then it gets portioned out into pint plastic containers for the next several days.
Not only is it nutritious but it is hydrating as well. I find a 2-cup serving will keep me until lunchtime with plenty of steady energy. Portioning it out makes it easy to pop into the micro for a quick snack. I don't think extolling the other benefit needs any further explaining.
Anyone with recipes? Ideas? I want more fiber! When I was into the Adkins thing about eight years ago I made a mean no-carb bran muffin. I called them "colon-blow" bran muffins...
