High-fiber meal plan, planned to your goal
A high-fiber meal plan builds most meals around legumes, whole grains, oats, berries, vegetables, nuts and seeds. In Cauli, a meal counts as high fiber when one portion has at least 5.6 g of fiber, 20% of the Daily Value, and at least two-thirds of your week's breakfasts, lunches and dinners meet that bar, all inside your calorie and protein target.
What counts as high fiber in Cauli
A portion with at least 5.6 g of fiber: 20% of the 28 g Daily Value, the FDA's bar for an excellent source. Computed from USDA numbers for the dish's actual grams.
| Leans toward | Legumes, whole grains, oats, berries, vegetables, nuts and seeds. |
|---|---|
| Steers away from | Nothing is excluded. Refined-grain dishes simply rank lower unless they carry enough fiber. |
| In the Week's reasons | "High fiber: lentils, oats, berries" |

Why plan it, not just follow a list
Most people want more fiber without eating like a cereal box. Spreading it across meals, with legumes in a Batch and oats or berries at breakfast, gets there without one heroic salad.
How Cauli plans a high fiber week
- Two-thirds of your main meals. At least two-thirds of the week's breakfasts, lunches and dinners meet the high fiber bar. Snacks and the Evening treat are too small to count.
- Still on target. Every day lands within 5% of your calories with protein close behind, from your goal: lose fat, build muscle, recomp or maintain.
- Around your week. Each meal is a Cook, a Batch or a Leftover, planned around the nights you can't cook.
- Combine focuses. Hold several; each must reach two-thirds of your main meals on its own. Pick it in onboarding or just tell Cauli.
- Never overrides the basics. Allergies, the foods you won't eat and your Daily target always come first.
What we don't claim
We say a week leans toward fiber. We never say it's for digestion or gut health. A Food focus is a way of eating, not a medical diet. If you have a medical condition, plan with your doctor or a registered dietitian.

Questions people ask
How much fiber does Cauli plan for?
Cauli doesn't set a daily fiber target. It makes at least two-thirds of your main meals high fiber, at 5.6 g or more per portion, which adds up across the day.
Will high fiber change my calories or protein?
No. A Food focus tilts which meals Cauli chooses; it never overrides your Daily target, your allergies or the foods you won't eat.
Is a high fiber week still portioned to my calories and protein?
Yes. A Food focus tilts which meals Cauli chooses. Every day still lands within 5% of your calorie target with protein close behind, and the focus never overrides your allergies or the foods you won't eat.
