Short & Sweet Shopping List

I know I've posted a much more comprehensive food list previously (see here!) of pretty much everything I could ever have in my home, but it's nice to have a shorter list when going to the grocery store.  Here is a list of items that I need each week.  Some of the foods I buy more biweekly.  Hope this is helpful! 

Grains:  brown rice, barley, quinoa

Bread:  Ezekiel sprouted whole grain bread

Grain products:  Brown rice noodles, udon noodles

Beans:  lentils, black beans

Other Protein:  tofu, faux meat crumbles (or faux chicken nuggets)

Veggies:  kale and/or collard greens and/or baby spinach, sweet potato (3), onion, garlic, ginger, broccoli crowns, baby carrots, celery

Fruit:  apples (bag), oranges (bag), bananas

Seasoning:  shoyu, vegetable broth

Oils:  olive oil, coconut oil, safflower oil

Nuts/seeds:  almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds

Milks:  almond milk (vanilla), coconut milk (unsweetened plain), daiya "cheese" 

Misc:  larabars, peanut butter, rice crackers, organic ketchup, kukicha tea, raisins


Reminder:  if you're just starting to revamp your kitchen with healthy & happy foods, there are many other ingredients that I buy less often on this list that I like to have in stock, but in general, this shorter list is what my shopping looks like most weeks. 

I'm off for a run!  Half marathon is only 45 days away...time to work hard!!!

Do you tend to use the same grocery list each week? 
What's your favorite food from my list?

  2. Ha! It must be grocery post day! I just did one late last night! You're more than welcome to check it out! :) One of my favorite things is a granny smith apple (organic!) with sunflower butter. I have this as part of my breakfast every morning!
