I am going to be living with my mother for about a month. She knows NOTHING about being vegan so I am preparing myself a shopping list... This is the START of my vegan shopping list. Anything you think I should add?



1. Extra Virgin Olive Oil (macadamia, grape seed and hemp oils are also fantastic)
2. Vegan Protein Substitution: (Tempeh/Tofu/Seitan/vegan sausages/gardein/boca)
*Tempeh is highest in protein per cal.
3. Whole wheat bread
4. Kombucha Beverage
5. Cinnamon ('warm' spice)
6. Soy, Hemp, Nut or Rice Milk
7. Vegenaise Spread
8. Sweet Potatoes
9. Citrus Fruit (Grapefruit, Oranges, lemon)
10. Frozen Green Pod Protein (Shelled Edamame or Peas)
11. Leafy Greens (arugula/spinach/watercress)
12. Rice Crisps - wasabi flavor is my fave
13. Onions
14. Fresh Herbs (flat-leaf parsley, cilantro, basil and more)
15. *Assorted Fresh Seasonal Produce* (Local/Farmers Market preferred)
16. Raw Nuts (Brazil/Cashew/Almonds) and Seeds (pumpkin, sesame, hemp, poppy)
17. Bananas
18. Mushrooms (Shiitake preferred)
19. Tea (Green, Black or Chai)
20. Dried Rice/Grains (like Quinoa)
21. Berries (fresh or frozen blueberries, strawberries, blackberries...)
22. Hummus
23. Dried/Canned Beans
24. Fresh Morning Fruit: Papaya or Melon is my fave
25. Vegan Cheese (Dr Cow, Follow Your Heart or Daiya)
26. Digestive roots: fennel, radish or ginger
27. Soy Yogurt
28. Something sweet... soy/coconut/hemp ice cream perhaps...
29. Whole oatmeal
30. Peanut butter/jelly
31. Pesto
32. Whole wheat pasta
33. Organic spaghetti sauce
34. Soups or broths to make own

    I have lots of frozen veggies, and 'no salt added' versions of canned veggies as quickie meal items for those nights I dont have time to cook an awesome meal. Some times I mix three canc (1 bean, 2 veggies) nuke it and run. The salt and cals are low and theres leftovers for everyone else.
