I always write out my list of meals for the week. I start with evening meals, then I make sure I write some ideas for lunch and breakfast also. Evening meals are set,whereas lunch and breakfast can move around as needed! The rest of the food I buy every week – some bread, dairy products, fruit, veggies to eat cold and veggies to go with dinner and then whatever item we are out of that week,be it maple syrup, herbs etc. They eat fruit and cold veggies with lunch and then one or two veggies with dinner. I go to Vons once a week then Trader Joe’s every other week stocking up on what we need from there each trip.

I also do a printable grocery list…however, i do it by store, (i go to 3 stores too: tj’’s henry’s and then a biggie like von’s) and i put the items in the order in which i walk through the store…that way, i’m sure to get everything and when i give the list to my husband to do, it’s much more efficient….it works great for staples and then if we are trying something new i can either type it in or handwrite it. I print the list and then i highlight the things we need from each store.
