My shopping list essentials

Shopping for keto when you're vego isnt as simple as bacon, bacon and bacon.

Living with a fellow Keto-er (meat eating) I find that we both find that most of the things we buy are from the outer isles (this is in aus supermarkets), fresh and cold produce sections. Anywho whenever I go to the shops these are normally on my list of things to buy to get through a keto week!

Cold/Dairy
Eggs
Egg Whites (carton)
Cream Cheese
Sour Cream
Butter
Cream
Creme Fraiche (I use this to make kick arse gordon ramsey style scramble eggs YouTube it)
Cheese - all different types but normally ill buy a combo of:
  • fetta - I like a greek salad
  • haloumi/saganaki - cooked in the fry pan with some veggies 
  • regular cheese - to make some "cheese sticks" because that shiz it expensive so I'll buy a block of tasty etc and cut into 25-30g sticks
  • shredded cheese (normally tasty/mozzarella/pizza blend
  •   cheeses from the deli section of the supermarket like havaarti, brie etc
Frozen
Raspberries
Blueberries
Quorn Mince
Cauliflower
Brocoli

Shelves
Almond milk (opt for no added sugar otherwise it can be quite carby)
Slim pasta
Nuts - Almonds, Mixed nuts
Almond Meal
Dried herbs
Stevia
Nuts (again careful of the carb content)


Fresh Produce
Mini roma tomato
Mushrooms
Capsicum
Zucchini
Lettuce
Spring onions
Fresh herb


Hopefully these are some sort of help on where to get started and help you get a feel for the kinds of things you might like to have as well!
