Week 6: Shopping List

We'll be learning about the benefits of coconut oil, butter, and ::gasp:: lard! So if you don't have coconut oil already, I suggest you buy a small jar of unrefined, cold pressed coconut oil.

Meat
1.5 pounds of stewing beef, hormone free
4 pork chops, organic
1 lb turkey breast for lunches (Applegate Farms is a great brand - but anything that is nitrate, nitrite free is good!)
1.5 pounds shrimp (jumbo would be great...but do as $$ permits)
6 chicken breasts (for 6 servings)


Produce
1 bag small onions (about 6)
2lb bag carrots
greens (chard, kale, spinach, or broccoli)
garlic
1 lime
bananas
frozen berries
1 red, 1 green pepper
lemon
red or green cabbage
cucumber
green onions
3 apples
ginger

Canned or Dried Items
2 cans tomato paste
1 c freshly ground peanut butter
oats
tamari (soy sauce)
shredded coconut
rice vinegar (not absolutely necessary, but helpful to have)

Dairy
cage free eggs
naturally sweetened or plain yogurt (Seven Stars Farm, Hawthorne Family Farm)
1 c creme fraiche
1/2 c Parmesan cheese


Other staples
coconut oil (favorite source - Mountain Rose Herbs: $41 for 1 gallon of unrefined or $22 for refined, which will last forever!)

spices: turmeric, cumin, cardamom, sage, fenugreek seeds, paprika, curry, cinnamon
