Frozen green beans
frozen burritos
Battered chicken tenders

Here's my list for this week, for myself, (my family has a different menu/list than I do)-

-loaf of sprouted grains bread
-package of generic Laughing Cow light cheese spread (Aldi version)
-3pkgs of frozen California blend veggies
-1pkg of frozen asparagus
-bag of sweet onions
-2 bags of mini-sweet peppers
-2 pkgs of mushrooms
-1 head of leaf lettuce
-1 pkg of fresh spinach
-8 tomatoes
-1 can black olives
-3 cans of refried black beans
-several heads of raw broccoli
-2 ears of corn on the cob
-4 sweet potatoes
-1 cantaloupe
-1 pint of blueberries
-1lb of cherries (I'm splurging on these, pricey but haven't been available for the past few months)
-2lbs of frozen, wild caught salmon
-tartar sauce
-hot sauce
-bag chili cheese fritos
-1 case of Coke Cherry zero
-1 box of instant white rice
-container of low fat cottage cheese

and then I'll get a dozen eggs from my in-laws, who have free range chickens.

Menu-
-'breakfast' sandwiches with the sprouted grains bread, toasted, with the cheese spread and eggs
-large salads with veggies, refried beans, black olives, Fritos and then the hot sauce and light French dressing (already have this on hand)
-salmon with tartar sauce, with sauteed veggies/mushrooms/corn, (I already have butter for sauteing and the corn). A couple times I'll add the rice to the veggies as well.

-eating out once on the weekend
-eating at the in-laws on Sunday (big steak meal on the grill)
-we'll also be doing a big cookout on the holiday and that food has not been planned out yet.
-I'm not a snacker but keep cottage cheese on hand in case I feel like one-I mix in the blueberries.

What kind of ice cream

We all got our own flavors. Dd picked cookies and cream... dh chose rocky road... I picked plain chocolate.

I plan my menu for the week on Sundays and grocery shop with my husband on Mondays.

I typically plan to cook six nights a week (we either eat out or have leftovers on the seventh day). I like to have a lot of variety in my diet so I don't have a standard list. Some of the things I buy very frequently are shredded cabbage, plant milks, onions, parsley, cilantro, bell peppers, canned and dried beans, canned tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, raw cashews, red wine, and carrots.

My usual low-carb grocery list includes:

Produce
- cauliflower
- broccoli
- romaine/iceberg lettuce
- jalapenos
- bell peppers
- celery
- cucumber
- fresh berries (if on sale)

Meat
- chicken thighs (so tasty and cheaper than chicken breast!)
- italian sausage
- bacon
- ground beef/burger patties
- eggs (we eat sooo many eggs!)
- pepperoni sticks (for snacking)
- cold cuts, salami

Dairy
- cheese (lots of cheese)
- heavy whipping cream
- unsweetened almond milk (technically not dairy but whatever)
- cream cheese
- butter

Other:
- flavoured almonds (for snacking)
- pickles
- mayo, hot sauce, ranch
- frozen veggies/berries
- diet pop

Cottage cheese
Bag of veggies
Chicken breast thin sliced
Brussel sprouts
Ground beef
Reduced fat cheese sticks
Beef jerky
Eggs or egg whites
Turkey bacon
Ground turkey
Shrimp
G2 grape
