SO, I'm making my list for grocery shopping tonight.

What are the must haves on your shopping list? Low calorie or super nutritional.

    Greek yogurt, black beans and limes are all summer must haves for me. Now that it's cooler, I'm big on sweet potatoes, green beans, shrimp, Cajun seasoning, Hoisin sauce, and chicken broth (I'd rather make my own, but don't always). Also, we can never have enough red, yellow & orange bell peppers in the house.

    I'm with JustJoshin, except my versions are all GF and dairy free. Can make it tough and no salt added - (hubby has hypertension).
