The things I buy the same every week are organic oatmeal, flax seed, ezekiel bread, almond butter, eggs, milk, strawberries, bananas, blueberries, carrots, hummus, cheese, honey, and assortment of veggies.
My dinners are normal: tacos, pizza, steak fajitas, chicken parm. I just make everything so I can control what goes in it.0 -

I try to stay away from anything that has been processed or frozen. I usually walk out with a wide variety of fruits and alkaline veggies (organic if possible and budget permitting: examples are cucumbers, celery, kale, peppers, onion, broccoli, spinach, garlic, lettuce), nutritional yeast, Braggs liquid aminos, Braggs apple cider vinegar, nuts and seeds (for salads and munching), soy/almond/hemp milk, organic bran cereal or granola, gluten-free or sourdough bread, peanut butter, brown rice, ginger, green tea, honey, cage-free eggs, if I'm craving some sort of meat I get fish or turkey (ground or bacon). I've recently developed a more raw approach to everyday eating and am cooking less. I'm mostly eating salads and juicing these days. I still splurge when I go out to eat, but I'm making it a point to do that less often.0
