Healthier Lives Tip

This recipe contains a good source of fiber (at least 3g of fiber per serving). Fiber from a diet rich in grains, fruits and vegetables helps keep things moving through the digestive tract. Experts recommend eating at least 25 to 30 grams of fiber a day from a variety of grains, fruits and vegetables to help support a healthy digestive system. A serving of oats provides 4 grams of fiber.
