2. wasa rye crisps
3. lots of fresh veggies
4. albacore
5. wine :happy:

snapcult

1. Yoplait yogurt
2. Oatmeal
3. Lean turkey cold cuts
4. Chicken breasts
5. Protein shakes

Another good idea is to add friends and see what they eat to get ideas.

1. Steel Cut Oats a.k.a. Irish Oatmeal (they take longer to cook, but they are really good for you)
2. Frozen Berries
3. Nuts: Almonds, Walnuts, Pecans, Cashews. Raw is good, or roasted but unsalted.
4. Catelli Multigrain Pasta
5. Salad Greens

2. Fresh ground peanutbutter
3. Kellogg's low fat granola
4. Plain Greek yogurt

I only have two things that I buy every week - muesli and almond milk. It is the only breakfast that works for me. It tastes good, is filling, and unlike every other cereal and oatmeal out there... I have never binged on it or even been tempted to.

lastraw

Large flake or steel cut oatmeal (not the quick cooking)
whole raw almonds
chicken, fish or lean red meat
fruits and veggies
skim milk and greek yogurt
multigrain unsalted rice cakes
natural peanut butter
eggs and egg whites
salsa


Sorry...couldn't limit it to five! I try to shop the perimeter of the grocery store and stay out of the aisles as much as possible. I do have to slip into the aisles to pick up the peanut butter/rice cakes and salsa though. Tosca Rena's Clean eating works...the trick is to stick to it! Sometimes I am on and sometimes I am so not...

All the best! You're off to a good start. I need to clean out my cupboards again especially with Christmas approaching and donating it is a great way to do it!
