For busy professionals, a meal that can be made ahead of time and eaten on the go can be a lifesaver. For office lunches, in particular, the convenience of the gas station sandwich or hot dog stand outside can be tempting, and while there’s nothing wrong with those choices, you could be getting a lot more out of your lunches with a fiber-rich dish instead.

This recipe was developed for Fit&Well by Roxana Ehsani, MS, RD, CSSD, LDN and is great for your gut health, filling and super easy to pull together. It’s inspired by the dense bean salad recipes that started trending on TikTok six months ago, but has a couple tweaks to make it even better for gut health.
