Grocery list

**csavage0** · 10-29-2012, 07:47 AM

I know a lot of us make our food for days at a time. I haven't got down the science of making a grocery list. I know sounds silly but I find myself going numerous times a week. What does your grocery list look like for a weeks worth of food ? I'm curious to see people's responses

Got that right!

And by the way: Keeping it "real" is the name of the game by delighting in life's pleasures to stay on track. If it is good enough for Phate, it is good enough for me.
But for those who plan to get on stage? Scratch the Pinot!

think i got the simplest list:

5 lbs lean ground beef (93/7)
10 lbs chicken breast
4 tubs 32oz greek yogurt
7.5 dozen eggs
1 box of 2-10 lbs oatmeal
5 yams medium sized
5 bags of steamfresh veggies
5 lbs of basmati rice
1 package of turkey bacon

this list is good for either bulking or cutting--just montior your portions.
also as you notice some things dont need purchased weekly--but monthly, or biweekly or even mos at a time which reli helps keep those pockets in check.
