Can you tell Im getting ready to make my food list today for shopping tomorrow?
Trying to readjust my list to cut down on the sodium & fat.

What fruits & vegs should I look for now?
Thinking of a few cucumbers cos I can see myself slicing one up every day or so.
Bagged salad is ok
Tomato slices w/ a slice of swiss cheese - friend showed me this years ago
DS & I both like grapes. How do you measure grapes for a serving? A cup?
I usually stock up on canned pineapple chunks
Watermelon
 
Blueberries, Strawberries, Blackberries and Rasberries are out now, the fresh cherries are too, but I think they will be more in season in a couple of weeks.
Native zucchini, summer squash and tomatoes...I haven't seen these yet here on the Cape, but I love the fresh native veges!
I get all of these at the local farmers market,
They taste so much better than the ones I get at the supermarket.
 
I try to gauge by what is plentiful, cheap and good in the stores, as seasons can be so different depending on where you are...

I went to Sams Club over the weekend. I got 2 pounds of raspberries for $3.50, and 2 pounds of strawberries for $3.25. They also had great deals on Asian Pears, and it looked like apricots were coming in too.

The cauliflower we got was outstanding, so were the brussel sprouts. My mother would fall of her chair to hear me say that...
 
The berries for sure, especially strawberries, they are yummy right now. Zucchini and asparagus are in season and have been quite tasty as of late. Have you tried buying a fresh pineapple? I had one a couple of weeks ago and it was so juicy!!! Have you tried english cucumbers? They are naturally sweet and I like them so much better than regular cucumbers.

Happy shopping, my mouth is watering just typing all of this.
