every single monday i go grocery shopping. like clockwork, we go right after aubrey's first nap is done, to ensure a smooth grocery run. aubrey holds my grocery list for me as we stroll down the aisles. i get the baby stuff first, then the dry goods, then the dairy/produce. it's such a routine & i thought i'd share my grocery list "staples" with you all today. these are the things i get without fail each week at the grocery store. i didn't include the meat, & other meal sides because those change every time. (the fruit & vegetables also change season to season..)
back row left to right: string cheese, milk (too cheap to buy organic), GoLean crunch Kashi cereal, orowheat bread, planters mixed heart healthy nuts, enfamil gentlease, bananas, brown rice
front row left to right: no salt added canned green beans, (only canned veggie i like!), eggs (again, too cheap to buy organic, sorry local farmers!), cranberries, peaches, avocado, & wheat tortillas.
we also got some ground turkey breast & chicken for this weeks meals.
what are your grocery staples?
I get everything except the fresh cranberries. What do you use them for weekly or make with them? I'm always looking to try something new and fresh cranberries are always a puzzle for me.
ReplyDeleteWeekly I buy chicken, fresh spinach, fresh strawberries, milk, eggs and tomatoes of some sort for my husband (fresh and/or canned) and Yoplait yogurt (with the red label and typically in only 2 flavors, peach and key lime pie).
oohh, you've got me all of a sudden craving fresh strawberries :) about the cranberries-they are super sour but i just eat them by themselves-they are SO healthy for you, & you get used to the sour taste after a few :)
ReplyDeleteI am a veggie and fruit fanatic! It never ever fails...when I check out I get the comment from the store clerk, "You eat a lot of fruits and vegetables!". Yes, I reply, plus I have 5 kids so it goes fast!
ReplyDeleteI think we have the same list, except I drink an exceptional amount of coffee (with creamer) so I'm always buying coffee!
ReplyDeleteI was so excited this year because we got to can our own green beans and corn. I felt like we were storing away for the winter like little squirrels. : )
