    I shop always daily. Usually I buy:

    herbs: coriander, mint
    eggs
    red onions
    garlic
    avocado
    bananas
    lemons
    spinach
    carrots
    tomatoes
    cucumber
    bell peppers
    ginger

    milk (I try to get raw milk whenever possible)
    chicken or salmon or beef or shrimp
    yogurt
    cheese, cottage cheese

    once in a while: mango, oatmeal, coconut oil, almond or peanut butter, frozen blueberries or raspberries.

    almost no fruit, because a tiny box (like 2 handful) of blueberries, raspberries or strawberries costs 4 EUROs. I'm waiting till they are in season.
