    Tofu.

    I have a 10-month-old, and he and I split it. It's like gummy protein for us both. And sooo yummy.
  • Not necessarily part of a grocery list hehe, but try this recipe! It's delicious and full of vegetables and not high in calories! Also, very filling! It's one of my favorite dinners to make! ♥

    -100 calorie English muffins, 25 calorie skim Kraft American cheese, and egg beaters (southwest style), which all make a delicious breakfast sandwich!
    -pumpkin flavored almonds by planters
    -low sodium v8
    -Dannon Greek light &fit yogurt (preferably vanilla, banana cream blends, or orange cream blends)
    -almond milk
    -honey bunches of oats honey roasted/fruit blends (excellent iron)
    Those are basically some of my food staples.
    Then I try to mix it up with my occassional favorites: sweet potatoes, mushrooms, tofu Shirataki noodles (40 calories for an entire pack make it ideal to have in case I go over one day but am still hungry by dinner), almond milk ice cream/coconut milk ice cream/arctic zero cookies & cream frozen dessert pint for days I crave ice cream, and then random frozen dinners like cordon blues or lean cuisine :)

    This is honestly a rough guess though, I have a few staples to ensure protein/iron for the day then branch out and explore the many wonderful things the store has to offer :) Turns out I adore meringue cookies and starbuck's cinnamon dolce hot cocoa mix! And don't get me started on Maxwell House's pumpkin spice latte mix<333

    Canned beans- great to put in salads or even with some scrambled eggs

    I don't buy that many fruits or vegetables since I get them from a co-op.
