    In season fruits & veg--cheaper and tastier! For example, zucchini, spinach, bell peppers, salad, tomatoes, green beans, strawberries, peaches, etc. Red onions, scallions, eggs & mushrooms are year round for me. Now that it's warmer, I'm getting Greek yogurt more often, and less fixin's for soup or homemade pizza.

    Lots of fruits and veggies, meat that is on sale, chobani yogurt, cottage cheese, natural PB, oatmeal, frozen berries, eggs, skim milk, almonds.

    I also stockpile things for recipes and snacks when they go on sale.

    I joined a CSA, so I get (organic, free range) meat, eggs and raw dairy from that. They also include some veggies, nut butters and homemade whole wheat pasta. SO, I supplement that by buying yogurt, ice cream, fruit, other veggies (mixed greens, tomatoes, cucumber, frozen veggies of all sorts) (they have had a lot of broccoli, kale and cabbage). Then I might buy some sweet potatoes, rice or other starches. Oh! and Ezekial bread, English muffins, granola bars. It just sort of depends on what I get from the CSA.

    Some of the staples always on my list are:

    Skim milk
    eggs
    bananas
    watermelon/strawberries (or whatever is in season)
    bell peppers
    celery
    chicken breast - boneless/skinless
    peanut butter
    Breyer's Natural Vanilla ice cream

    I know the last item will raise eyebrows. I'm not going to kid myself and say I will never eat ice cream again. I am learning portion control. AND, I make allowances during the day if I want to have ice cream in the evening.

    Chobani Greek Yogurt
    Honey Wheat Bread
    Natural Peanut Butter
    Sargento Monterey Jack Cheese Slices
    Cereal
    Orange Juice (It's Minute Maid's Kids which I like for the vitamins and it tastes good o3o)
    Mio water flavouring
    Bottle water (Our tap is gross and smells like chlorine)
    Propel water
    Macaroni with broccoli bits in it
    Rice Sides (chicken, chicken broccoli)
    Frito Pie ingredients (Fritos, either plain or chili cheese, chili beans, chili with and without beans)
    Ice cream of some sort
    Monterey Beef and Bean burritos (I know it's not the best to eat but it's yummy)

    That's pretty much all for me, I'm not including my husband's items because I rarely eat the same things he does. We don't eat much meat because we can't really afford it at the moment. But when we do get meat, it goes into hamburger helper usually.

    edit: I'm sure I'm missing a few items on that list, but I'm not at the store at the moment. We don't make actual lists, we just grab what we need when we go. Also that's not EVERYTHING on my list but stuff we usually always have in the house.
