    About 3/4 of my list every week is fresh produce. The specifics depend on what meals I'm making that week. And then I have multigrain bread, some cheese, high quality sandwich meat, maybe some pasta, cheese sticks (mainly for my kids), kosher hot dogs (kids), graham crackers (kids), beans, eggs, yogurt, milk, juice, tortillas, sour cream and butter (if I need them). That's about it.

    We eat extremely healthy foods now that I've taken over our food budget. I make all our meals from scratch and we have very few snacks. We were doing pretty well before, the new changes are mainly because we have to save money.
