What helps me maintain a healthy diet? Stocking my fridge and pantry with lots of healthy foods! I totally still have cravings for junk food, but if they’re not readily available at home then I'm less likely to snack on them.

When I go grocery shopping, I try to buy more produce than packaged goods. The more veggies and fruits I see, the happier it makes me. I love going COSTCO! I’ll usually go there because they have awesome produce in bulk. Plus they've started selling organic superfoods/healthier foods (e.g. chia seeds, coconut oil, quinoa, agave nectar, etc) - at a much better price too! The only downside is that their produce section isn't as extensive as a regular supermarket. Enter Freshco. I'll go there to pick up what Costco doesn’t sell or stuff I don’t need huge quantities of (e.g. peppers, onions, etc).

Here was what I got at the grocery store:

Vegetables

-          A box of spinach

-          A box of mixed field greens

-          A box of baby kale and arugula

-          A bunch of kale

-          A bunch of cilantro

-          A box of pea shoots

-          1 cucumber

-          5 beets

-          3 jalapeno peppers

-          1 bag of assorted bell peppers

-          1 red onion

-          1 bag of avocado

-          1 package of grape tomatoes

-           

Fruits

-          1 large bag of gala apples

-          1 bag of oranges

-          1 bag of clementines

-          2 bunches of bananas

-          1 large box of strawberries

-          1 bag of frozen blueberries

Other

-          1 bag of hemp hearts (great sprinkled on cereal or salads)

I realize this is a lot of food but I eat salads and smoothies every day, and snack on fruit too so this is kind of the norm for me.  Plus anything that’s leftover by the weekend I simply throw in my juicer for an energizing breakfast.

Noms for dayssss!
