In this past, I’ve shared the ultimate vegan shopping list, but that is primarily for starters who may be just starting to fill their pantry with vegan favorites. My weekly grocery shopping list is vastly different and much smaller. Aside from the usual condiments and ingredients I have on hand for a while, the below is what I am usually stocking up on each week. The fruits and vegetables are always changing, but I am just going off of my “usuals.”
Anyways, I wanted to share in case anyone is interested or looking for some inspiration for their next food shopping trip.

We usually spend anywhere between $50-$70 a week on groceries for our family. We shop at Trader Joe’s, PriceRite, Dave’s, and BJ’s, for the most part. I’ve actually shared sample grocery lists for Trader Joe’s and PriceRite on here, too!
