Food Choice by Lisa Clark

Here is a sample grocery list at our house and where to go to buy the things you need. I am not particularly a fan of Walmart, but they do carry some of our favorite items at the lowest cost. I recommend Publix for their fresh fruits and vegetables.

Walmart

Egg Whites quart cartons ( walmart brand is good and the cheapest)
Skim Milk
1% cottage cheese (i like the 1% rather than fat free, tastes better, less sugar and only 1.5g fat, 13 gm protein)
Yogurt (fat free) Greek preferred but pricy
Spray butter (fat free 0 calories)
Grapefruit juice (Floridas Natural brand is good and less sugar)

Whole grain oats (Walmart brand is better than quaker actually and they cook in 2 mins)
Walnuts
Yoga brand organic brown rice (cooks light and tasty)
Splenda brown sugar blend
Tea bags
Artificial sweetener
Coffee
Rice cakes (white cheddar yummy)
Boullion Cubes (chicken and beef) - you will use too cook rice and some veggies with

Peanut butter Jiff Simply brand
Soy sauce
