Skinny Jeans Grocery List

My Grocery List

VEGGIES:

What I have been doing lately is buying a bunch of veggies from a local farmers market, go home and chop them all up and separate them in individual zip-lock containers.  They last a lot longer it seems and it's easier to throw in with meals and snacks if it's already prepared.

Here's what I buy: (try to get all organic)

• 1 Cucumber
• 3-4 Red, 3-4 Green peppers
• Bag of baby carrots
• Bananas
• 2 Heads of Broccoli
• Container of Baby Spinach
• Bag of potatoes
• 3-4  Avocados
• Apples (Granny smiths are my favorite, I buy about 20 they also look great as decoration...)

BAKERY:

• 12 Grain loaf of bread
• French Bread loafs (So cheap!)
• Whole wheat pitas (that you can rip in half for wraps)

DAIRY:

•  Skim Milk
• 1% Cottage Cheese (A large container!)
• Yogurt with active probiotics and or low fat Greek Yogurt (very healthy for you)
• Container of Egg whites

MIDDLE ISLES:

• Cereal- I like Special K Strawberry, but KASHI is always a great way to go
• Kashi Granola Bars for on-the-go snacks
• Bag of Oats for oatmeal (Not individual flavoured ones.. too much sugar)
• Brown Rice - Not the individual microwave bags, but get a box of it
• Chicken broth (cook with rice in water for extra flavour)
• Organic Balsamic vinegar
• Olive oil (both for salad dressing)
• Container of Coffee yuummm!
• Natural Organic Stevia powder - use in your coffee for a sugar sub
• Tuna and Salmon Cans (make sure there's a dolphin on the side for dolphin friendly)
• Bag of Almonds in the bulk isle (UN-salted)

FROZEN ISLES:

• Bag of berries (for protein shakes, oatmeal, pancakes etc)
• Bag of green beans
• Bag of brussel sprouts! Get them in you!

MEAT:

• Skinless boneless chicken breasts
• Skinless boneless turkey breasts
• Turkey sausages (Soooo good!)
• A couple steaks (shouldn't have red meat for then once a week)
• A bag of pre-cooked chicken chunks - good for on the go wraps

Protein Pancakes!

Great breakfast to speed up metabolism for your day and give you the protein you need!  Wait about an hour and 1/2 before working out, or having as a post-workout meal.

All you need is:

• 1 scoop Protein Powder (vanilla or chocolate is best)
• 1 Banana
• 1/4 cup Oats
• Dash of Cinnimon
• Spoonful of Cottage Cheese
• 1/4 cup Egg whites

For lower carbs, don't add oats!

So all you want to do is mash up your banana and mix in a bowl all ingredients.  Heat a frying pan on medium spray with PAM and pour mix in the middle (all for one big pancake, or half and half for two small ones)

A great sub for syrup is organic agave sweetner, found in most grocery stores.

Enjoy!!
