I have been experiencing constipation from my pain medicine. I already eat a balanced diet but have increased my fiber and fluid intake even more, including prune juice. I was wondering if any of you have some favorite recipes that help with this?

Forgive me if this is a repeat question, but the only information I could find was people referencing having problems but didn't find any suggestions for solutions.
