I shop every two to three weeks (I don't have a car) and my list stays about the same.

Deli meats (this week: hard salami and rotisserie chicken)

Random/Canned/Other --
-- sliced black olives
-- pickles (I always try to find a new variety)
-- salad dressing (this month: Opa Greek yogurt feta-dill)
-- soups (usually Progresso light varieties; sometimes Campbell's Go in the pouch)
-- antipasto (usually Mezzetta)
-- seasoning blends, lots of variety (just bought some Worcestershire dry seasoning for steaks, Mrs. Dash chicken blend, and Old Bay seafood blend)

It looks like kind of a lot written out like that and I should add that, excepting fresh produce and fresh meats, I don't buy everything on the list every trip (or even every month). Still, this is the rotating selection of food from which I make my shopping list 95% of the time.

ETA: HOLY CRAP THIS IS LONG, I am so sorry, guys.

Emerald almond one hundred calorie packets come in lots of flavors (cinnamon, vanilla, chocolate, etc). and I love them. I keep them in my purse, put them on oatmeal, in yogurt, etc.

Bananas! I need potassium.

Kale: Throw it in smoothies, soups, stews, stir fries, etc. for a huge nutrient boost.

Quinoa: Use in salads, soups, etc. instead of pasta.

Squash or sweet potatoes in lieu of regular potatoes.

Rotisserie chicken: Eat a meal off of it and then use the rest to make a stock and meat for homemade chicken soup (I make a mexican one with beans, quinoa, tomatoes, peppers, etc.) or turn it into chicken salad for lunches. Always save the carcass for making stock. So easy!

I don't really have a fixed shopping list because I do like some variety in my diet. Also, it depends on where I'm going! There's only one shop selling Weetabix, which I love for breakfast.

Things I buy almost every week:

- milk
- eggs (every other week)
- something to top my sandwich with - often cream cheese
- vegetables - whatever looks nice and didn't come from the other side of the globe; this week: mushrooms, pumpkin, tomatoes, red peppers and leek
- small amounts of fruit - this week: 4 bananas, 1 apple, 1 orange; not that keen on fruit

Shopping has become a bit more difficult since I've decided to go organic when it comes to animal produce; I can get organic dairy and egg products at my local supermarkets but no meat, no fish and only poor-quality tofu. The local organic supermarket isn't great, so I'll probably try to go to a bigger one once a month when I'm in that area and stock up on turkey and chicken (mostly breast and filet), canned tuna, meat and tofu sausages and some interesting tofu varieties.

Sometimes I draw up a meal plan for the week, sometimes I go shopping and pick up whatever reasonably healthy thing I fancy and make a meal plan based on what I bought.

There are things that get thrown in every other week that we don't use as much of - celery, onions, broths, GF pasta, stew meat, potatoes, mustard, mayo.

first i goto the local farmers market and get the below almost always:
kale
apples
broccoli
peppers
zucchini

sometimes i buy:
mushrooms
endive
collard greens
cauliflower
berries (when in season)
corn
honey (when im out)

grocery store:
tempeh/tofu
almond milk
liquid egg whites
eggs
quinoa -when im out
rolled oats

thats my essentials!

whatever fruits and veg are in season - I'm really bummed that there is only one more week for our local farmer's market b/c I always shop their first for the freshest. I also keep my trips focused on the perimeter of the store as those are the most healthy sections. I also ignore the end caps 'cause that's where the marketing folks put the temptations (i.e. SALES). I survey my freezer for meats since I tend to buy what's on sale and stock up. Hubby likes Amy's or Fig's low calorie boxed soups and I ALWAYS have a box of low-sodium veg, beef and chicken stock on the shelf so I can whip up a quick gravy or soup during the week when I'm too tired to make from scratch. Then it's on to dairy - 1/2 n 1/2 for coffee, sour cream, cottage cheese, yogurt and THEN it's OMG we have 5 different kinds of cheese at home do you need to buy another? That would be me imploring my cheese-oholic husband to "put it back." Grab the coconut water on the way to the reg and we're out the door. Unless a pretty flower bouquet catches my eye :flowerforyou:
