Morning! I’m starting to post later and later because I am now on summer time.
No alarm, no time I “have” to be up. Just waking up naturally and leisurely sipping on my coffee, reading blogs and eating breakfast. I love it.
The other day I went food shopping because we had NO food in the house. I love grocery shopping and stocking the fridge with fresh fruits, veggies, and everything else.
Yes, I carried all of these up three flights of stairs at once. Am I the only one who refuses to make another trip?
I don’t normally show what a full shopping trip looks like in my house, so I thought maybe you guys would like to see!
Or maybe I’m the only weirdo that likes to see what is the norm for everyone else. Anyway…… I did spend quite a bit of money but I got necessities and some other things I wanted to try.
Fresh vegetables and strawberries. I always have broccoli on hand, but I try to venture out and get a variety of other vegetables. This trip I got spaghetti squash, cauliflower, and asparagus. We already had spinach in the fridge, which I always need on hand as well.
Tomatoes, bananas, and blueberries (they were finally on sale.)
Meats, sweet potatoes, apples, and an Asian pear.
These are a MUST. Always need to be stocked with egg whites, almond milk, yogurt, cottage cheese, and half & half for coffee.
Now this is where I started getting things that aren’t necessarily “necessities”.
Truvia, shredded coconut, almond extract, Mrs. Dash salt-free seasoning, puffed rice for me in case I wanted a crunch or something in my yogurt, dry roasted edamame for salad toppings, and whole wheat pita for the madre.
Coffee is a must, but then I also got jelly, nut butters (Barney is amazing and it was on sale so I couldn’t pass it up, so excited for that; and as you can see I am now officially a Sunbutter convert, I love it), and Apple Cider Vinegar.
Everyone on the Jamie Eason plan talks about ACV and how it helps decrease bloat and Tosca Reno swears by it so I’m trying it!
I put it in my salad yesterday with some dressing and didn’t taste it at all. I’m still trying to talk myself into take straight shots…. I’m scared. I’ll let ya know how that turns out.
But that’s basically it!
What is something you MUST have in your fridge at all times?
How often do you go to the grocery store?
Do you take ACV?

Greek yogurt and berries – they MUST be in my fridge or else I’m not happy! They’re perfect for a snack, breakfast, side with a meal – everything. I usually go shopping once a week and make a list.

What a great haul, look at all that protein! For me, a must is egg whites and some sort of vegetable. (whatever is on sale usually!) Jealous of your summer schedule!

i love all the dairy! I am a dairy addict and I can never go without being stocked with yogurt and cottage cheese! Love them both!
Kaila @healthyhelperblog! recently posted..WIAW: Giveaway Winner!
Same, always need to be stocked with dairy!
Looks like a great shopping trip! I must always have peanut butter, milk, cereal, whole wheat bread, broccoli, chicken, etc etc on hand! Actually, my shopping adventures look very similar to your own! I am interested to hear what you think about the vinegar and if it really helps with bloat!

That is a healthy trip to the G store with an excellent supply. Kudos on keeping delicious and healthy options in the fridge.

don’t take shots of ACV! It is super acidic so the acid will ruin your teeth!
I haven’t! But I know some people do take the shots? Hmm..
We eat so similarly
I love seeing what other people buy at the grocery store! I always gotta have fresh veggies, fruits, and egg whites. I use all those everyday. I usually go to the grocery store 2-3 times a week, because I ALWAYS forget something. I should really start writing a list!

I swear, I am ALWAYS at the store. First, I forget something so I go back. Then I run out of something that I had from before, so I go back. Then I run out of another so I go back. Next thing I know it, I’m out of other things haha
Eggs in my fridge all the time !
I go to the grocery once a week (sometimes more =) )
ACV … not really, I tried but didn’t notice a difference ….
Laurence recently posted..Need your help
Did you take it three times a day? I’ve only had it like once or so haven’t noticed anything yet!
you and i have the same exact grocery list!
love it!

YESS!!! I knew that you would eventually convert over to the dark (Sunbutter) side
It takes a litttle getting used to, but once you adapt it’s pretty hard to think of nut butter the same way!

I thought about you once I realized I loved it!!! HAha. I LOVEEE it now!
Oh wow I’ve never heard that about ACV, let me know I would love something to help bloating, it’s the worst!
I always have to have apples, greek yogurt, eggs, and peanut butter. If I see I’m getting low on any, I’ll make a special trip just for them! ha
Jentry Nielsen recently posted..Teach Me Thursday : De-stress with Yoga
I’ll let you know! And I make special trips all.the.time. That’s probably why I feel like I’m always in the grocery store.
oh barney butter. I could spoon that for hours. Good call!
Same, it can get dangerous!
ACV had made a difference for me-less bloat and better skin
glad to hear you’re enjoying your summer vacation so far!
summers and breaks are the BEST! you made quite the haul at the grocery store. i’ve been loving asparagus and berries lately!
Ashley @ My Food ‘N’ Fitness Diaries recently posted..Healthy Living Survey
I think we could basically grocery shop FOR each other and we’d both have exactly what we need. It looks like my haul!
I always need to have 0% Fage and Cottage Cheese in the fridge.. also almond milk
Cait @ Beyond Bananas recently posted..Childhood Food Favorites

Brittany recently posted..Ding Dong

Anything else? ;D haha
I carry in all the light stuff and my hubby gets the rest (spoiled) But he’d rather do that than have to put it away anyways
Also I’m surprised to see your groceries look pretty similar to mine.
Kadee @kadeebugblog recently posted..Giveaway Time!!
Haha lucky!! I carry ALL, but I don’t mind
Are Barney’s nutbutters good? I always see them at the store by my apartment and am just curious.
sara fiorenzo recently posted..Eats
YES! Absolutely amazing. Usually very expensive so when I saw it on sale, I HAD to grab it!
The makings of a very balanced diet! I love that you keep it real by buying what’s on sale. Especially fresh produce which can be so insanely expensive (no wonder people eat so many packaged, processed foods – they are cheaper!).
Val recently posted..Why Children’s Concussions Are Dangerous
Heck yes, always go for the sale! ;D
So much healthy goodness!
I’ve been trying to only buy organic animals products, but BOY does it get $$$! I always need skim milk and TJs natural crunchy pb in my fridge. Always.
