I would love to be anywhere near a market that has buffalo or ground bison. Buffalo burgers taste amazing. The only kind ive seen available to me is like 10$ a pound online and they ship it dry ice.
Trader Joe’s has it in their frozen section. I buy a package (4 burgers) a week. $5.69 for 20 oz.
Trader Joe’s has a great selection of quality food (organic, free range, minimally processed, etc.) - at reasonable prices. I do 90% of my shopping there and I’m usually in and out in 20 minutes. Here’s their website: www.traderjoes.com
Thats a cool lookin place, and there’s one 12 miles from me. Thanks. I appreciate it.[/quote]
Oh trader joes is an amazing place!
I usually try to buy bulk so I can have enough from paycheck to paycheck (Every two weeks). Still getting used to the two week stretch.
But I usually buy:
Egg Beaters + Carton of Eggs
Lots of Tuna/Salmon Canned
Frozen Salmon Patties (Wild)
Spinach
Broccoli
Red Onion
Some Canned Veggies (Butter Beans, Black Eyed Peas, English Peas)
One loaf of usually whole/7 grain/or pumpernickel
Skim Milk
Frozen Steampacks of veggies and frozen fruit (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries)
Fresh Fruits like Bananas, and Apples, I tried a Pluot the other day and it was very very good
Walnuts/Almonds
Mushrooms
A quick question though. When we’re watching carbs, do we count certain fruits like bananas or all of them? And certain veggies i.e. carrots?
Eggs
Kefir/Culture Milk
Nuts
Frozen vegetables
I throw in some meat/chicken/fish whenever I can afford it
This is what I usually buy on a daily basis. Together with the stuff I stock up on (like oats, canned tuna and protein powder), I believe this covers all my needs nutrition wise.
