I'm on my way to the grocery store and I wanted to know what are the must haves for eating clean??? I read the peanut butter post on the Ask Cathe forum -- but since I'm going -- please give me your must haves for snacks, quick meals -- whatever -- just one thing if you can think of that you must have before you leave the grocery store.

boneless skinless chkicken breasts
oatmeal
low carb/high fiber whole wheat wraps-i never buy bread
Better'n Peanut butter or Peanut Wonder (same thing as you probably read on my post on the ask cathe)
High fiber soup
Not sure if it's clean or not but I like to keep 100 calorie size bags of popcorn-low fat quick snack
for snack - I like No pudge brownie mix (www.nopudge.com) has lots of receipes, you make the brownies with vanilla yogurt. I never make the whole batch though, i use the single serve receipe from the website and microwave one at a time, that way you don't overeat!!!

fruit: berries, apples, oranges, kiwi,
vegetables: frozen spinach, broccoli and peas
fresh baby carrots, tomatoes,peppers,cuke, sweet potatoes, and zucchini
whole wheat, high fiber bread or wraps
