👉 🌿 Healthy & Wholesome Grocery Planning Guide
Created by Healthy and Wholesome LLC — Rooted in Truth, Designed to Heal
Set a realistic weekly grocery budget. For many households, $100–$125 can work well with careful planning, even at premium stores.
Pro tip: Start with $100 and adjust as needed based on your family size and dietary needs.
These meals should provide leftovers and form the backbone of your weekly menu.
Example:
Select foods that can be used across multiple meals to reduce waste and save money.
Staple examples:
This helps you stay focused and reduces impulse buys.
🟢 Produce
🍗 Proteins
🥑 Healthy Fats
🥣 Pantry Staples
🍓 Snacks (Optional & Minimal)
🧼 Other Essentials
Even if shopping in person, building an online cart helps you track your spending and stick to your budget.
Stick to your list. Avoid end caps and processed food aisles unless you need a specific staple.
Design your meals so one dinner becomes lunch or part of another meal the next day.
Use what you have first. Planning around perishables reduces waste and maximizes savings.
