Cereal • HEALTH: Oatmeal is one of the healthiest choices because it is a whole grain and has no added salt, fat or sugar (ditto for shredded wheat). • BANK: Stock up when items are on sale. • BANK: Even though grits are not a whole grain, they are economical and low in calorie density. Pasta • HEALTH: Rice is a very inexpensive option that is also low in calorie density when cooked. Of course brown is best but white is not such a bad option either if that is all your family will eat. • BANK: Look for sales on store brands and stock up when prices are good. Produce • HEALTH: MyPlate calls for most people to eat about 4.5 cups of fruits and veggies each day. • BANK: Farmer’s markets and local stands often have the best prices. • BANK: Watch local papers for grocery stores to offer sales on produce - you can get some great deals. • BANK: Use items in season to get the best value and for a little change of pace each season. • BANK: Don’t buy too much unless you plan to use it before it spoils. An exception might be if you plan to cook and freeze soups or other dishes. Protein • HEALTH: Choose lean, cook lean and use portion control. • BANK: One word helps here - sale! • BANK: Use smaller quantities • BANK, HEALTH: Of course the cheapest protein item is also the healthiest and highest in fiber - beans • BANK, HEALTH: If you don’t have a lot of time use lentils • BANK, HEALTH:If you do have some time, consider cooking and freezing larger batches of dried beans Beware of these pitfalls • Expensive items include soda, chips, cereals, cookies, crackers and convenience meals. These are also calorie dense. Try to limit these treats to just one per week - don’t need to fill the cart with them. • Shopping without a list • Shopping when hungry • Shopping with other family members -        MyPlate Shopping List Tearpad   This shopping list is packed with information on menu planning, how to write a menu, entree ideas and even includes a recipe!    See it in the store       You can save 15-20% on all orders at nutritioneducationstore.com by subscribing to Communicating Food for Health!  Save 20% on your subscription thru September 30th.     DASH Diet Shopping List Handout Here's a free handout for you!
