Paleo on the Cheap
A lot of friends have told me that they'd go Paleo but can't afford it. So here's a typical weekly shopping cart for me. Typically it costs around $40.
Eggland vegetarian-fed Eggs- $4.89 for 18 (scramble in pan in butter)
Jennie's Lean Ground Turkey- $4.89 (use for turkey burgers or chili)
Wild Caught salmon filet- $5 (wrap in tinfoil and put in the oven in butter for 30 min)
Grass-fed hamburger meat or steak- $6.99
Organic vegetarian-fed chicken drumsticks- $3
Tuna in cans- 2/$3
2 avocados- $3
2 tomatoes
scalllions
organic spinach- $2.99
blackberries or blueberries- $2.99
2 apples or pears- $2-3
Kerrygold grass-fed butter- $5
Coconut milk (I don't buy this often, but it's good in protein shakes)- $2.99
From time to time I get Chioban yogurts 2/$3 or 4% cottage cheese
Unsalted Pistachios or almonds- $4.99
I'll sometimes get some red wine or whiskey (Bushmill's is cheap and good) too- $10-12
Between meals I'll typically have a protein shake from Muscle Milk which I'll get once a month at the gym or GNC for about $20.
Typically I shop at Ralph's, Trader Joe's or Vons. Sprouts is good too.
Cheers-
Gabe
