Best fibre filled recipes?

I’m doing ok keeping high protein/low carb- am actually quite proud of how I have negotiated all the Christmas socialising, but I could really do with some lovely salad/veg recipes to include with my meals.

soup definitely exacerbates my burping for some reason, so winter coleslaw and veg ideas or similar would be welcome! Or any other good ways of getting fibre in- my coach says I should be aiming at 30g a day.

At this time of year I'm leaning heavily on stews and soups, really easy to chuck a heaping load of veg in. For example with 500g beef shin I'll add 2 punnets of baby button mushrooms, a bag of sliced onions, a bag of sliced carrots, a bag of sliced peppers, a tin of tomatoes (I hate doing prep and just buy it all ready done). That gives 4 big sized portions of casserole, no extra sides needed.

Another one is warm salad, a mix of asparagus, green beans, button mushrooms, tenderstem broccoli, sugarsnap peas, babycorn (whatever you have really), blitz for 3 minutes in the microwave, add a knob of butter and whatever seasoning you like. I often have it with a boiled egg sliced in there or some wafer thin ham/chicken torn up and mixed in. You can serve up a big bowlful for around 200 calories.

I cannot bear a boiled sprout, but shredded sprouts, either raw with a really citrusy dressing, or lightly stir fried with some soy sauce, garlic, ginger, or with some pancetta/chestnuts: man I could eat kilos of them and they're basically all fibre. SO cheap right now too.
