    It's a known fact that eating outside increases the nutritional content of your food .

    Here's my typical grocery list:

    CARBS:
    *Brown rice
    *Whole wheat bread
    *Cereals (I try to get mostly whole grain, but just can't seem to avoid throwing in at least one box of the sugary stuff)
    *White rice (my fiancee doesn't like brown, so we mix it up--about 70% brown and 30% white)
    *Granola bars
    *Cape Cod reduced fat potato chips
    *Trail mix


    FRUITS + VEGGIES:
    Tons of different stuff here--mostly all fresh
    *Broccoli
    *Cauliflower (I've got a great recipe for whipped cauliflower. I don't even like the stuff, but it tastes like mashed potatoes with about 1/5 of the calories)
    *squash
    *bell peppers
    *onions
    *garlic
    *Apples
    *Oranges
    *Bananas
    *Berries (black, rasp, straw, blue)

    *MEATS:
    All kinds, I just try and limit the red meat, and make sure everything is as lean as it can be. Some good pre-marinated stuff is the Jennie-O Turkey Tenderloin, and Hormel's extra lean pork tenderloin.
    *Lots of lunchmeat, because I try and bring my lunch every day.
    *Fish 1-2x / week.
    *Canned tuna (in spring water)

    OTHER:
    Fat Free Lactose Free Milk (I can't digest dairy. This SUCKS)
    Chocolate Soymilk
    Protein shakes or powder (I'm an EAS Myoplex guy myself)
    Extra virgin olive oil
    Coffee
    Tea


    That's about it!

    I tend to shop the outer perimter of the grocery store and avoid the aisles.

    Bananas (they go in every Whey shake I make at home. I use "Show Me the Whey")
    Apples
    Celery
    baby cut carrots
    Cauliflower
    Broccoli
    kale
    Spinach
    Onions
    Garlic
    Ginger
    Sweet Potatoes
    Navy Beans
    Kielbassa (with the beans and kale this makes an awesome skillet supper)
    Lean Pork
    Chicken
    Whole grain cereals
    Skim Milk
    Natural Peanut Butter
    Almonds
    Walnuts
    White Rice (I know the brown is better for me, but I'm asucker for good white rice. Especially with those japanese sprinkles with the seaweed and the wasabi flakes)

    Since I work late I usually take supper at work. This is usually Ramen, Lean Pork (usually cut into chops and cooked with soy, rice vinegar, ginger, garlic and little brown sugar) and spinach. I season that with a Thai chili paste and a wee bit of this Soup base I got from my Asian Market. Oh yeah.

    Lottsa frozen veggies:
    - any kind but eggplant, acorn squash or okra (Yuck!)
    - Alsways including broccoli, brussle sprouts, carrots and sweat peas.
    -Limit the corn as it is actually a starch and very high on the sugar. Not recommended for peeps with hypoglycimia or diabetes.

    Canned 'maters and fruit packed in water. Sometimes frozen fruit, if it is on sale.

    Rice of any kind, several kinds of pasta and pasta sauce. Stay away from taters as much as possible, execpt in stews. Frozen taters usually find thier way into the basket if the kids are helping me shop, though.

    Any kind of meat, depends on the market prices. Usually ground turkey instead of beef, lots of poultry in general. Lots of tuna, as it is the only kind of fish my kids will touch.

    Cranberry juice, orange juice, tomato juice, Tampico for the kids.

    Almost forgot, lotts of cheese and milk. 1.5-2% milk and any kind of hard cheese, as well as the healthier amarican singles and string cheese for the monkeys to snack on.
