This post is for all of you who get mad everytime I do a Costco or a Trader Joe’s post! My regular grocery store is Kroger, but these items can be found at any supermarket, I would say!
Here are my cheese staples:
Babybel Light – I like it better than the original!
Light string cheese – Yes, I do “string it”!
Laughing Cow is great on celery with everything bagel seasoning, or a few crackers, and I use it to make a creamy sauce.
I will freak out if I don’t have these items in my cheese drawer.
I always have to have Greek non-fat yogurt. I use it for sauces and dips and I use it in my cake mix and for my skinny pizza dough.
Buffalo sauce is a staple. I love combining my Greek ranch above with this with some grilled chicken and celery.
Salsa! This is our favorite brand. I mainly use this in my burrito bowls.
Avocado toast! I have gotten Tom on the bandwagon, too.
This is my favorite brand of low carb tortilla. I found the street taco size recently, too.
I think it is nice to have a few salad or veggie mixes around. This was really good!
I am low-key obsessed with spaghetti squash right now.
I almost always have celery, grape tomatoes, potatoes, cucumbers, broccoli, salad fixings, and a nice stash of frozen veg.
Eggs! I love eggs!
I will often cook up a mix of vegetables and have it on hand to add to different things like omelettes.
As far as drinks, I only drink water, coffee, sparkling water, and alcohol! Ha! I am using fat free half and half right now for my coffee along with a bit of cinnamon dolce skinny syrup. I need some new sweet options for after dinner. I usually have a Built bar for lunch dessert or a snack and for the evening I usually have a dum dum. Did you notice that I have multiple desserts a day?

What are your grocery staples? I hope you have gotten at least one idea!

I am always on the lookout for new veggie based recipes, I have found so many good ones on TikTok, it’s like my new Pinterest! I was so close to buying a Cinnamon Dolce Skinny Syrup at Marshall’s the other day but the line was so long I put it back. Thanks for the inspo!

I just can’t with Tik Tok but I like when my sister shares a recipe. I find it overwhelming and I don’t want to see what they show me! I like having a skinny syrup and it really gives a coffee shop vibe but I wouldn’t stand in-line for that either!

I keep string cheese and laughing cow wedges on hand too and use them often; along with eggs and loads of fresh vegetables and fruit.

One item I must have on hand is light vegetable cream cheese which is nearly impossible to find anymore.

I was just thinking I wanted that the other day. I am going to try to make my own with one of those seasoning packets – maybe the Italian dressing one?

Well for grocery staples I of course have all the condiments (regular, no light), milk, crispbread (a staple for all Swedes), always ingredients for a mixed salad (we have it with almost every dinner), butter, cheese, and always some sort of ice-cream in the fridge… We are semi-healthy in my family, I mostly cook from scratch and we all have decent bodies I think… (at least the teenage girls! 😀 Wait – the oldest one isn’t a teenager anymore!). I think the biggest difference from Americans is that we eat more home cooked food, more potatoes, we use more spices and we love candy!

I love reading what other people eat! Yes, I think you are right, but I didn’t realize how much you liked candy!

I love an egg and veggie scramble and mine at home is just as good as a restaurant, if not better! I love Babybel light and sometimes I slice it. Laughing Cow is a staple!
