Everyone talks about the produce from Imperfect Foods ā¦
and yes, I love that too š¤
but as a mom with second gradersā¦
this is what actually saves me
the snacks and staples that show up at my door
with simple ingredients
no artificial junk
and most importantlyā¦ NO SEED OILS
I try to buy food that feels like something Iād make myself
(even though letās be honestā¦ Iām not making all of this from scratch š)
here are my go-toās right now:
hummus
ā finally found one without seed oilsā¦ which is weirdly hard to find
this is my āI didnāt make it but it feels like I didā option
pipcorn cheese balls
ā listenā¦ we are not fully breaking up with cheese balls anytime soon
but these are made with avocado oil + simple ingredients
so itās a compromise I feel good about
coconut cult chocolate mousse
ā probiotic + chocolateā¦ say less
sweet potato chips
ā avocado oil again
because realisticallyā¦ chips are not leaving this house
boulder chips Boulder Canyon Foods
ā my personal weakness
but look at those ingredientsā¦ clean + simple
ketchup Primal Kitchen
ā no weird fillers, no junk
just a version I actually feel good about giving my kids
Butchers bone broth
ā I buy this weekly
so much collagen + gut supportā¦ you can literally feel the difference. Has the gelatin needed and not like other bone broths. BUY THIS!
meatballs
ā quick, clean, and so good
my husband and I both love these
olives + pickles
ā simple ingredients, no dyes, no nonsense
and they actually taste fresh
mush minis
ā one of the cleanest bars Iāve found
sweetened with dates instead of junk
minimal ingredients + proteinā¦ and my girls actually love them
kraut
ā super simple, gut-healthy, and easy
ingredients are exactly what youād use at home
and the flavor is so good
this is what works for us right now
real life, not perfect š¤
