Healthy Food Haul!!!

I absolutely LOVE going grocery shopping & putting all sorts of healthy goodies in my cart. 99% of the time, I admit, I go with no plan at all! But at the end, it always ends up working! We buy are carbs in bulk (quinoa, rice, dried beans, wheat germ, bulgar wheat, etc), so that's why you will hardly ever see them in my grocery pictures! And don't get me started on meat. We are meat eaters, but use the term very loosely. We do tend to favor more a plant base protein source than animal protein, but we do eat meat. We spent approx $128 on this haul. It is just Casey (hubby wubby) & I. We do have a budget around $200 a month, but it isn't set in stone. Previously to this load, we had already spent $120 this month already. The Vitatops were too good of a deal to pass up & my chicken apple/maple sausage were also on sale....which explains the "difference" View list & prices below!!! In no particular order. Three grocery stores were used in the making of this grocery haul!!!
