0:52
week's grocery haul. So the first part of my grocery haul is actually from Trader Joe's
1:03
While little miss Lola went to chemo, I made a run over to Trader Joe's, picked up some of our
1:08
staples and some new things that were recently released. So let me show you
1:12
part one of my grocery haul from Trader Joe's. As always, I picked up some flowers. They sat
1:17
in the car so they definitely need to get put into some water but I love their flowers. They
1:21
last forever and I thought these were perfect for summer. These are new. These are the s'mores
1:27
clusters. So mini marshmallows and graham crackers covered in milk chocolate. I did have one of these
1:32
They are so good. You get three of them for 180 calories. So just kind of a nice little sweet
1:38
treat for summer. And then I also tried these. I had one of these as well. These are the milk
1:42
chocolate covered honeycomb candy. I can't remember what these are called if you go to
1:47
a chocolate store but I love them. They have the really crispy center. Three of them, 150 calories
1:52
So 50 calories a piece. So just a couple of fun little sweet treats. And then I got a refill of
1:58
my soft and juicy mango. I love the Trader Joe's soft and juicy mango. I count this to zero points
2:03
because it has the exact same macros as fresh mango and I don't eat the whole packet. I eat
2:08
the same amount as I would eat of a fresh mango. So I do not track this. Got a lot of dog treats
2:13
That's one of the main reasons that I went there. And I got these rawhide peanut butter flavored
2:17
retrievers. My dogs really really like these. The last time I got them and they have nice clean
2:21
ingredients. And then I also got the organic chicken and brown rice sticks. These are new
2:28
These little surfs up dog treats and little Mr. Palmer's on the front. So I thought that was so
2:32
cute. They're pork, sweet potato, and coconut. And they're little surfer shapes. I thought those
2:38
were really fun for summer. And then I've never bought these for my dogs but the lady that
2:43
checked me out at the register said her dog loves these. Basically all it is is dried Himalayan
2:48
cheese and they make dog bones out of this. So she just said her dog loved it. They were a really
2:53
good price at Trader Joe's. And then I grabbed a refill of organic rolled oats because Costco did
2:58
not have rolled oats. At least the Costco that I went to. And I'm almost out and I've been eating
3:03
a lot of oats. So I grabbed those. I always buy my rolled oats organic because they're sprayed with
3:08
the same pesticides that's in Roundup. So that is one thing I'm really particular about. I got these
3:13
because they sound amazing. These are the cinnamon graham crackers. Dogs are eating their chicken and
3:18
rice if you hear clinging collars. But I thought that these would be a nice just a kind of sweet
3:22
treat. You can make s'mores out of these. Super fun for summer. And then I always buy the cheese
3:27
tray because it's only $5.99 which is about half the price of cheese trays at other stores. And
3:33
this one has Colby Jack, Swiss, mild cheddar, and pepper jack. Lots of frozen stuff for Troy. He loves
3:39
the fettuccine alfredo. I got a package of the cauliflower gnocchi. And then he also loves the
3:45
chicken fried rice. So I picked him up two packages. This is just a really easy quick
3:50
dinner. Actually all of these are really quick dinners or sides. And then we're having VLTs this
3:55
week. You'll see my meal plan at the end of the video. And Troy asked for big fat cut bacon. So I
3:59
got this really thick cut bacon. $6.99 which is a lot. But I'm going to do turkey bacon on my
4:05
sandwiches and he can eat all of this. But this is definitely some stout thick bacon. I also got
4:11
cheese. No surprise. These are my favorite cheeses. The light shredded mozzarella and the Trader Joe's
4:17
three cheese blend. I also have not had a bear bell in a long time. Last time I had them they
4:22
kind of hurt my stomach. So I only bought one. But I've heard that this creamy crisp one is really
4:27
good. So I picked up one. I'm going to try it again. Sounds amazing. And like I said I've seen
4:31
it all over TikTok and people just rave about it. I also got some flour because it was only $2.99
4:36
which it's over $5 at my local Kroger store. And this is unbleached flour. And then this is another
4:42
thing I really wanted. And this is the garden vegetable hash. So it's cauliflower, zucchini
4:47
bell peppers, fire roasted corn, celery, and yellow onion. I've been making my little egg
4:52
white omelets that I shared in Wednesday's what I eat in a day. And I wanted some veggies that I
4:56
could add to the omelet. And this is already cut up ready to go. This is perfect for stir fry soups
5:02
Amazing. And then I got a big pack of sliced cremini mushrooms for a recipe. So that is
5:07
everything for the week from Trader Joe's. Let's jump into the rest of the grocery haul. And here's
5:12
the rest of my grocery haul for the week from my local Fry's store which is a Kroger store. They're
5:18
having some really great deals right now. What you don't see is a case of water and two 24 packs of
5:25
Diet Coke. All Coke products 24 packs are $10.99. So really good deal. Let me show you what else I
5:31
picked up. A couple of non-food things. I needed a restock of my Lysol brand new brand new day
5:37
cleaner. Love the smell of this. It's really really yummy. It kind of smells tropical like summer
5:42
And then I got a restock of our paper plates. One of the really good deals right now are Yasso
5:47
bars. They're on a digital coupon for $3.99 a box which is an amazing deal. Up to five boxes. So I
5:54
bought four. I did a coffee chocolate chip for myself. And then I got mint chocolate chip, chocolate
6:00
chip cookie dough. And then this one sounds really good. Black raspberry chip. So that actually makes
6:05
it about the same price as Costco. And last week when I shopped at Costco they didn't have them. So
6:09
I was really happy to see those on coupon. I also grabbed some sweet treats for the week. I have
6:15
vanilla ice blueberry bread. Trevor really likes this. And then I picked him up some sugar cookies
6:20
And then I got these little mini scones. I love these. They're about 100 calories a piece. They're
6:24
perfect to pair with some protein for breakfast. So I picked those up as well. These were $1.30
6:30
$2.47, and $2.84. Some instant white rice. This is for Lola for the week. I'm going to cook her up
6:37
some ground turkey and some rice. She definitely hasn't been feeling the best since her treatment
6:42
on Tuesday. So I want to make sure that she has something that she'll eat this week. And then I
6:47
grabbed two of these for Troy or for me. These are little cracker barrel bites. And it's basically two
6:52
kinds of cheese and some crackers. And these were on clearance for $0.72. So I picked up two of them
6:58
I thought they would be quick, easy, on-the-go snacks. And then I needed canned chicken for a
7:03
recipe. And one can was $5 or three cans was $8. So I went ahead and just got three cans. I should
7:09
have just bought the big pack at Costco last week. It would have been a better deal. But I need chicken for my lunch meal prep. I also grabbed some yogurt. So these were $1.29. So I
7:19
picked up a strawberry cheesecake and a toasted vanilla. And then these were $1.50 each. And these
7:24
are the two good. And I love the lemon. It's my favorite, favorite for yogurt bowls. So I picked
7:28
up four yogurts for the week. Grabbed Troy a summer sausage. He requested this for his meat, cheese
7:34
and crackers. Speaking of crackers, this is another really good deal going on right now. The family
7:38
size boxes of both Triscuits and Wheat Thins are $4.99 a box. But if you buy three, they're $3.99
7:44
a box. So I went ahead and bought three. So I did get original Triscuits for Troy. I got reduced
7:50
fat Wheat Thins for me and then regular Wheat Thins for Troy. So that's a really good deal. $3.99
7:56
for the big huge box when you buy three. So needed some rice vinegar for a recipe. I was actually out
8:01
of this the last time I needed it. So I picked it up this time around. I also got some Daisy sour
8:07
cream. We are going to have a taco night. So I wanted to make sure that we had sour cream
8:11
And then this was on sale for $2.47. It was on clearance. I think they're no longer going to
8:16
be carrying this, but this is from Nature's Path Organic and it's a variety of instant oatmeal
8:21
apple cinnamon, multigrain raisin, flax plus, and maple nut. And I thought this would be really good
8:26
to pair with some protein for breakfast. And you can also use these in overnight oats as long as
8:31
you add a liquid to it. And they're already have the flavors in them. And I thought that was a
8:35
killer deal. $2.47. And then also the Oscar Meyer lunch meat is on digital coupon for $3.99 a piece
8:43
Also an amazing deal. So I picked up one pack of uncured ham and one pack of roast beef
8:49
These are for Troy for sandwiches and breakfast sandwiches. And then I did grab bacon at Trader
8:54
Joe's, but again, a really good digital coupon $6.99 for one and a half pounds. The one I picked
8:59
up at Trader Joe's was $6.99 or $6.49 and wasn't even a full pound. So that's a really good deal
9:05
And this again is that nice thick bacon for BLTs this week. I also grabbed a couple gallons of 1
9:10
milk for Troy. And then for produce, I got Romaine lettuce leaves for my lunch meal prep and also for
9:16
tacos. I needed tarragon for meal prep to be fully transparent. I've never bought tarragon. I don't
9:23
even know what it tastes like, but it's in my lunch meal prep. So I got the fresh stuff. We're
9:27
going to try it out. Lots of tomatoes again for a couple of dinner recipes, tacos, as well as one
9:32
other recipe this week. The Simple Truth brand of organic blueberries were $3.88 on digital coupon
9:39
Apparently that was last week's coupon, but the sign was still out. So she honored it. So instead
9:44
of $9, it was $3.88 for this big pack of organic blueberries. So that was a really great deal
9:51
And then I picked up one huge zucchini for a recipe. So that is everything that I picked up
9:56
grocery-wise for the week. Let's jump into what's on my menu for dinners and what you'll see in
10:02
Monday's meal prep. So here is what is on my menu for the week. So I'm going to be making copycat
10:07
panda express mushroom chicken. I'm actually really excited to duplicate this recipe. You will see it
10:13
in Wednesday's What I Eat in a Day. We are having a taco night and we are doing BLTs this week. And
10:18
then I'm really excited for Monday's meal prep. I'm making banana protein pancakes. I'm going to
10:23
make a cranberry walnut chicken salad for lunch. Also so excited for that. And then I'm doing a
10:28
no-bake dessert because it's 101 here all week. And I'm going to do a no-bake peanut butter oatmeal
10:34
bar. And these also have protein. So stay tuned for all three recipes in Monday's meal prep. Thank
10:40

10:44
from both Trader Joe's and my local Fry's store, which again is a Kroger store. Some good deals
