It has been a little while since one of these posts has popped up here in CEVG girl land, hasn’t it? Over a month, to be exact! Things are a bit different this time around, though. This grocery haul post is going to be all about the Whole 30-compliant ingredients I purchased this weekend. If you ever wondered what types of food can be eaten on the Whole 30, you are about to find out.
Let’s take a peek inside of my grocery bags for the week <– I’m a poet and I know it!
A Whole 30 Grocery Haul {What’s Inside My Grocery Bags #10}
Generally, my grocery bags are at least halfway filled with produce. This weekend I picked up tons of organic apples, organic bell peppers, carrots, organic radishes, and a red onion.
I also purchased bananas, organic baby spring mix, a lemon, organic celery, broccoli slaw, tons of sweet potatoes, and an organic cucumber. The more fruits and veggies the better, right?
My perishable items included organic cage-free eggs, organic free-range chicken thighs, bacon, and chorizo sausages. For those looking for a Whole 30-compliant bacon, I found this one at Whole Foods!
And finally, what I like to call my “miscellaneous” items: individual containers of organic chicken broth (because sometimes you don’t need a whole carton), organic coconut milk, wild-caught canned tuna, a new-to-me Larabar, organic yellow mustard, pink Himalayan sea salt, and individual guacamole packs <– currently obsessed.
Now let’s see how I am putting the majority of these groceries to use. I will be on days 14 through 19 of the Whole 30, so everything that I am cooking up will be made with my Whole 30-compliant ingredients.
Weekly Meal Plan: July 19-24
Dinner #1: Dijon Tuna Salad + guacamole + plantain chips
Dinner #2: Trader Joe’s chile lime chicken burger + baked sweet potato + sautéed greens in coconut oil
Dinner #3: Melissa’s Chicken Hash (from the Whole 30 cookbook <– affiliate link)
Dinner #4: Salad with veggies, hardboiled eggs, and “dump” ranch
Dinner #5: BLT lettuce cups with “dump” ranch + veggies
Dinner #6: Chorizo and peppers with sweet potato “dirty rice” <– if I love this one, I’ll share it in a future Friday Foodie Favorites post
I’ll be eating any leftovers that I have for lunches during the week. I like to cook once and eat at least two times!
I hope everyone has a great rest of their weekend. I am off to go wedding dress shopping with my mama. Wish us luck!
Have you found any new products at the grocery store that you recommend?
What is on your meal plan for the week?

Hi
When did you
Stop being a vegetarian and why ?
Thanks
Karen
I think I first ate seafood in December and then other meat in March. I have had a lot of unexplained health issues, for which I am trying diet eliminations right now. Since I have eliminated all grains, legumes, and almost all dairy, I made the difficult choice to add meat back in.
I know, when I go to the store, most of what I buy is produce! But that’s a good thing 😉
A VERY good thing!!!
i did coconut aminos quite a lot when doing whole 30..and remember going through SO MUCH EGGS.
Yes and yes!! I definitely have coconut aminos in my fridge right now 🙂
I’m all about that guac! Great grocery haul!
I’m all about the guac alllll the time. In fact, I am about to eat some with my lunch right now! 😉
How amazing are those mini guacs?! DIE.
SO amazing. They are one of my favorite things ever right now!
I love that you include a meal plan- I tend to have some ideas in my mind before going grocery shopping, but I bet an actual meal plan would help me budget better.
Meal plans definitely help with budgetting. When I go into the grocery store with a list for my plan, I generally stick to it!
I’ve never tried that flavor of Larabar before!! Let me know what you think.
I am so excited to try it! I love the lemon one, so I am thinking it might be similar!
Looks like a good haul! I’m not Paleo, but I love how much easier it is to find pure bacon since it’s popularity rose!
Good luck shopping!!!
It took me hunting around the bacon section for about 5 minutes, but I FINALLY noticed the “Paleo” sticker 😉
Thank goodness for Kroger and their Simply Truth line!
They have a great product line! I also love the 365 line at Whole Foods 🙂
I hope you had a great time dress shopping with your mom!! I always love these posts – we buy so many similar items! Loveeee pink Himalayan sea salt – I’ve become obsessedddd.
Isn’t it SO good? It is all that I want to use!
Hmm… Well, we’re almost out of everything, so I guess the meal plan is making do with what we have till we have a chance to go shopping. 🙂 Your grocery haul looks good.
Are you finding the Whole 30 pretty doable?
The Whole 30 is DEFINITELY doable… though it would not be if you were traveling, etc. because eating out is VERY tough!
I love Whole30 and I love this post! Isn’t that paleo bacon from Whole Foods the best?
I haven’t tried it yet, but I am so excited to cook it up tomorrow night!
