My First Raw Grocery Shop

G'day!

Today I did my first grocery shop for my new raw vegan diet change. I find often the problem when people are looking to go raw (myself included) is what do I buy? Do I just go and buy one of everything in the fruit and veggie section? 

I'm going to share my my shopping list that I put together just looking at a bunch of recipe ideas and stuff. Since I'm 100% new to this it might need some additions/changes, but it's a starting point and I'm sure it can help out people feeling a bit lost or who need a point into the right direction :)

Fruits:

• Strawberries
• Blueberries (Fresh & Frozen)
• Bananas
• Apples
• Watermelon
• Avocados
• Lemons
• Young Coconuts
• Cherry Tomatos
• Raspberries (Frozen)
• Frozen Mixed Berries
• Goji Berries

Veggies

• Cucumbers
• Spinach
• Kale
• Lettuce
• Carrots
• Fennel
• Red Cabbage
• A few different kinds of  sprouts
• Red Onions

Seeds & Nuts

• Sunflower seeds
• Pumpkin seeds
• Almonds
• Chia Seeds

Other:

• Apple Cider Vinegar
• Coconut Water
• Coconut Yoghurt
• Maca Powder
• Green Powder
• Fresh Tahini (Ideally I would make my own but since I'm just starting out that will do)

This all adds up to about $100 for a weeks worth of food (not included the Maca and Green Powders which are quite pricey but will last for a while) so it's not too bad. This is just my start off list and as I see what I like and don't like I'll change it accordingly but I think I'm at a good starting point. 

I'm really looking forward to this change tomorrow. I just made some raw bircher muesli and put it in the fridge to soak overnight so I'm pretty excited to try it out with some fresh fruit for breaky tomorrow. Also, it's my first day of the SkinnyMe tea detox which is pretty exciting too! :)
