So I’ve realized I eat more dairy than I thought I did or maybe that’s just what’s left in my fridge to consume. So I’m finishing out my non-paleo foods before the 30 Day Paleo Challenge
I know you’re just as psyched as me.
I’m used to eating yogurt for breakfast. So today was pretty typical…
Green smoothie (1/2 banana, 6 chunks of frozen mango, lots of spinach, and water) + the other half of the banana and a Chobani.
Lunch consisted of more leftovers…
An apple for a snack. Then random boxed Potato Leek soup + cottage cheese with tomatoes and hot sauce on a tortilla. That combo was wayyyy more delicious than I thought. Since I still have a ton of cottage cheese left, that will be lunch tomorrow too.
After work, I headed to Costco to stock up on some stuff.
Bananas, Almond Butter, Marinara, Spinach, Eggs, Clementines, Mini Peppers, Rotisserie Chicken, Ground Turkey, Avocados. I wish that box was filled with Stella Rosa, but no, that’s how I brought home my chicken…
Honestly, the list wasn’t that different from what I normally buy. The only difference is ordinarily I would buy Greek Yogurt and Cottage Cheese and probably some other type of cheese instead of any type of meat.
One of the criticisms I hear about Paleo is that it’s expensive. I spent $56. That might be a little more than I would normally spend at Costco, but I’m thinking that ground turkey will last a while, and it was the most expensive item (4 packs for $17).
I’ll hit up the grocery store for some spaghetti squash later this week, but other than that, not a whole lot more.
I’ll keep track of the costs just out of curiosity.
How much do you normally spend on groceries?
looking forward to seeing how your challenge goes! perhaps i will try this one of these days 🙂
Thanks Allie! I’m super excited (and nervous?).
sounds like some wonderful eats!
