Show me your D.
Hands down, the most commonly asked question people slide into my DMs with is in regards to what kind of DIET I am on. What kind of food T (@t.clow) and I eat, how to prepare it etc etc. So many people have this misconception that eating healthy is 1. Too expensive and 2. Means everything has to taste like the glue that seals envelopes. Don’t call me a food guru but I’m here to help you get the best D you’ve ever had in your whole life, flavorgasm free of charge.
 You’re welcome in advance.
T and I are both athletes, so we eat A Lot. Considering prepping meals for the both of us I do one large trip to the grocery store per week, and get other smaller items later if needed/if we run out (this is usually like shredded cheese or a certain dipping sauce etc).
I went grocery shopping this morning-store of choice is ShopRite as it’s fairly competitive with its prices. I am not an extreme couponer but I am as they say “ballin on a budget” so if I can get everything I need cheaper at a store that’s less popular-I will.
Here is everything that I bought-
Produce:
2 Onions (1Red,1Vidalia), 5 Bell Peppers(1green,2red,2yellow), 2 yellow squash,6 vine tomatoes, 4 ears of corn, 3 limes, 3 lemons, 1 bunch organic cilantro, giant pack of baby bella mushrooms, pack of baby spinach, hella green beans (I don’t know what the weight is haha sorry), bulk bag of brussel sprouts.
Protein:
2--1lb packs of lean ground turkey, 1 pack boneless skinless chicken breast, a 2lb organic salmon filet, a 2lb bonless pork loin roast, and 30 large grade A eggs.
Misc Stuff: 2 bottles of coffee creamer, trash bags, Parmesan cheese, Sargento cheese sticks, paprika, deli swirl bread, 12 pack English muffins.
Total cost for everything: $135.00 on the dot. $135 for a CVS length receipt worth of healthy and fresh food..
For shits and gigs lets divide this by 2 because there are 2 of us-that’s $67.50 per person for an entire weeks worth of meals.This is including:  breakfast, second breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner. Lets break this down even further.
Divide the weekly cost $67.50 by 7 days a week=$9.64 a day. (yes I’m using the calculator on my phone cause math is hard.)
That’s what it costs to feed myself for a whole day- eating super healthy, and super often. You’ll spend at LEAST $10 at Taco Bell or McDonalds for ONE meal. Let’s reconsider our choices.
OKAY Alix, now that I have bought all this rabbit food, wtf do I do with it.
Fantastic, I’m glad you asked.
Throughout this week, as I normally prepare our meals I will be blogging about it so you can see exactly what I am making, and how.
You’ll be as they say.. shooketh to find out how little time, and minimal effort majority of these items take to make, and how fu*king delicious they taste.
