High-Fiber Appetizers

High-fiber appetizers are a great way to kick off any meal. Think crunchy veggies with hummus, black bean salsa with whole grain tortilla chips, or baked sweet potato skins. These kinds of apps not only taste great but also help you feel satisfied, which makes it easier to enjoy your main course without overindulging. The recipes in this section are some of my favorite high-fiber bites.

I make Crock Pot Picadillo all the time in my house (Madison's number one request), and because it makes so much I like to get creative with my leftovers. I came up with this quesadilla for lunch one day and my husband said I should put it on the blog, so I thought with Cinco De Mayo coming, it would be fun to do some Cuban-Mexi fusion.
