Basic Needs

Hello! Hello!

I have noticed that a lot of people have no idea where to start when it comes to eating healthy. They are so overwhelmed that they just don't even start.  My motto is to start basic then every week add one new "thing" to your food repertoire. Here is a basic no fuss list to get you started, it should last you one week.

List
Vegetables-bell peppers, onions, sweet potato, frozen broccoli, fresh green beans, asparagus, carrots, cucumber, tomato, spinach, and spring mix lettuce

Fruit: banana, pink grapefruit, dried berries, blueberries, strawberries, apples, lemon, cantaloup, and pineapple

Grains: brown rice, quinoa, and oatmeal, whole wheat English muffin

Meats: tilapia, salmon, chicken breast, ground lean turkey breast, chicken sausage, and lean pork tenderloin

Dairy&Non-dairy: unsweetened almond milk, non fat Greek yogurt, egg whites

Other: extra virgin olive oil and or coconut oil, raw almonds, Mrs. Dash seasonings, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, protein powder, organic almond butter or peanut butter


Take your time and create recipes from these basic items. Remember 4-6oz of meat and unlimited vegetables.

It's okay to-grill, bake, sauté, or steam your food. No butter or other oils need to be used.


Happy Shopping!
