Grocery List/Favorite Meals

Here’s my basic grocery list and some of my favorite meals! I’m a vegetarian college student so my options are a little limited but I still eat delicious things every day :)

Any measurements (i.e. per one slice, 2 tbsps, etc) are serving amounts!

FRUITS:

Bananas

Strawberries

Apples (my favorite are golden delicious!)

Pomegranates

Oranges

Grapefruit

Avocados 

Watermelon

Blackberries

Raspberries

Grapes


VEGETABLES:

Carrots (big ones are fun to snack on!)

Peppers (red and banana!)

Onions 

Spinach

Corn

Squash

Pumpkin Seeds!

Broccoli

Peas

Potatoes 

BEANS/RICE:

Green Beans

Black Beans

Brown Rice (or any kind of rice in moderation :))


SNACKS:

Multigrain Cheerios

Chips & Salsa (Look for organic/all-natural!)

Popsecret 100 Cal Butter Popcorn

Dry-roasted Peanuts

Kraft Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese

Dannon Light & Fit Nonfat Strawberry Yogurt (only 80 cals per pack!)

DRINKS:

Simply Lemonade (all-natural, 120 cal/8 fl oz) -> I’m a lemonade person so I have to have this! 

STASH Premium Green Tea


Wheat Veggie Sub (made with school ingredients, listed on school website as 172 cals, 2.5 g fiber, 4.8 g protein per sub)

Six-inch wheat sub (school bread, not sure of the nutrition information)

Lettuce, Onions, Carrots, Banana Peppers, Black Olives

Yellow Mustard

Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwich

Nature’s Pride 100% Whole Wheat Bakery Bread (110 cals, 3g fiber, and 5g protein per slice)

*Favorite thing about this bread: First ingredient is whole wheat flower!

Polaner All Fruit with Fiber Strawberry Jelly (35 cals, 3g fiber per tbsp)

JIF Natural Creamy Peanut Butter (190 cals, 7g protein per 2tbsp)

Pita Pocket (also made with school food, listed as 173 cals!)

Take a wheat pita and split it in half. This gives you two pitas with open sides — half-circle shapes with the flat side open. Take some lettuce, chopped onions, shaved carrots, and chopped red peppers and put them all into the pocket! Start with the lettuce and put the other things on top. Pour some fat-free italian dressing in and enjoy!

More to come!
