What's your monthly healthy grocery list?

I buy a lot of things according to what is seasonal or on offer but in general there are some things I always have on my list. I don't neccessarily consider any foods bad, I just eat less of them therefore there are probably things on my lists that fit into what I consider to be my fairly "healthy" eating habits but are not a "health" food

Ok so not everything is 'healthy' and I might buy the rice type of sauces/dressing but I don't think it's all 'bad'. I just need to portion control, do healthier meals.

* = sometimes on monthly shop

Eggs, fresh veggies, mixed greens, chicken, fish, raw/unsalted almonds, low glycemic fruits, oatmeal, low carb wraps, weekly buys for me!

Two Costco-sized jars of coconut oil, cold pressed, organic, not deodorized (my staple for cooking, also good in coffee with a tiny bit of salt and cayenne powder)
Chuck roast
Ground beef
Onions
Red peppers
Garlic
Salt
Powdered spices: Cayenne, garlic, chili powder, curry powder, black pepper, onion (a lot of these are surprising vitamin or mineral rich)
Goat cheese and pepperjack

Have now done some research and decided to add sesame seeds and cashews to the list to have every few days for their health benefits. Need to find some roasted in their own oils instead of cotton oil and in the case of the sesame seeds, not spoiled by the addition of all kinds of flavorings they don't need.

Also adding flax seed this week, as I simply can't afford grass fed beef and I read the Omega 3s and 6s get out of whack.

Vitamin D, because I don't get enough sunlight.

Bump...lots of great ideas!

Right as you walk in on your right [Produce] ::

Green Onion - a few bundles.
Red Onion - four.
White Onion - one bag.
Corn on the cob -- ONLY THE KIND IN THE BIG BIN WHERE YOU PEEL IT OFF. -- Did not make it home, not in season!
Clementine mandarins [These come in a bag of like 30 - they're like little oranges.] -- He came back with oranges or something. Whatever, we'll eat them anyhow.
Kiwi [I'm not sure if you know what a kiwi is - some people don't - it's a small, brown FUZZY fruit - it's about the size of an egg.] -- Yes, he knew exactly what a kiwi was.
Blueberries
Strawberries
Raspberries
Avocodo [it's a better deal to get six small ones - versus the bag of large ones]
Artichokes [Get two for me and Harmony, and two if you want some.]
Two BAGS of Fresh Spinach.
Already Been Peeled Garlic [This is in the refrigrated fruit/veggies section -- ask if you don't see it.]
Pears

Bulk Food [just past Produce on your RIGHT]:
Honey Vanilla Granola
Honey Almond Granola [These may be the same thing, but just get one that looks delicious. I don't like cinnamin or anything nasty.] -- I don't know which one he got; kinda scared to try.
Stash Tea [Harmony likes the Chai [red package], I'll take some Chamomille [yellow package], Fran likes Green Tea [green package]. Get 20 of each, and get some for you.

Dairy [On your left past bulk foods]:
60 Eggs.
One big tub of Blue Bonnet Butter
2 things of DARIGOLD [PLEASE do not get anything else!!!!!!!] Cottage Cheese - 4% - it can be LARGE or SMALL curd.
Gallon of Milk - 2%.
Shredded Cheese Four TWO POUND bags - Colby Jack, Monterary Jack, Cheddar - whatever. PLEASE don't get Mexican or Italian blend. -- He came back with something like TEN of the small bags.
String Cheese - ONLY the Hytop Brand - this comes in a blue and green package - a blue strip on the bottom, and a green stripe on top. -- Wrong string cheese, giving it to the neighbor.
Yogurt [I only like the kind for kids - especially those ones where you mix the stuff on the top in - especially Oreo!!] - Daniables - still good; will put in smoothies.

Frozen [Just behind dairy]:
Frozen berries - ALL of the fruit he brought home, besides pears was frozen.
Frozen Mangos
Frozen Peaches
Perogies [Those pasta potato things] - I PREFER the mini ones, so grab a couple boxes of those, but if they have the FAMILY PACK of the large ones, that will work.
Vanilla Ice Cream [try to find something low calorie/off brand/cheap - I only want it for smoothies] -- Decided I really don't want this, will possibly share with neighbor.
Tillamook Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream -- for him/girlfriend.
Tony's GARLIC BREAD [This looks like a pizza, but it is just a garlic bread. MAKE SURE IT IS GARLIC BREAD, AND NOT CHEESE PIZZA. I'm hoping to have this for dinner, please find it.]

Dry Food [Behind the cheeses and stuff]:
One box of Stash Acai Berry. - Never made it. ;[
Two boxes of Nature Valley Sweet and Salty Nut Bars - PEANUT ONLY. - Don't think this came.
Blue Powerade Zero - a few of them.
Litehouse Ranch [I think they may have a low calorie one, but just work with it] - Three bottles. - He got some other ranch, still looks good.
