Grocery shopping?

RobinsonDawn

Hello guys well I always do a food shop online as I live in the valleys quite far off from decent supermarkets!
Everytime I'm doing a food shop I'm finding it's not lasting the whole week.
Could you list down some food that you buy just to give me ideas of what extra things I could include

Raw Veggies
Fresh Fruits
Cheese
Cottage Cheese
Yogart
Fat Free, Sugar Free pudding (for snacks)
Eggs
Nuts (raw, no salt or lightly salted; I love almonds and sunflower seeds. Sunflower seeds are great to add to salads or just to eat a handful )

We use green grocer and butcher for most stuff and supermarket for staples. These are what we include

Swede
Carrots
Potatoes
Apples
Oranges
Bananas
Cauliflower
Cabbage
Onions
Mushrooms

Chicken breast
Sausages
Diced beef
Bacon

Eggs
Milk
Hovis 400g wheatgerm bread (only 56 kcals per slice!)
Butter
Kerry low low cheese /spread
Yoghurt
Cereals


We try to have 2/3 meat free meals per week (egg/veggie dishes)
Write a weekly menu as it will provide you with a shopping list! It also takes away the whole "what shall we have for tea?" dilemma, which in our house would result in buying junk!

I have the same problem. We usually do groceries twice a week, one big shopping trip and a little one.

Hello my dear.

Congrats on the rugby score yesterday.

I tend to find that buying frozen veg helps that situation, otherwise I keep a lot of veg in the fridge and find it keeps a bit longer that way too.

I also freeze all my meat in portions for two (myself an my significant other)
