How To

How do you make a grocery shopping list?

Your grocery list should contain items that you buy regularly at your local supermarket. It should include the following categories:

  • Produce (vegetables, fruits)
  • Meat/fish
  • Dairy products such as milk, cheese and yogurt
  • Snacks & sweets
  • Drinks
  • Other groceries

The most important thing when making a grocery list is to keep it simple. Not writing down every meal you eat each day is a waste of time and can lead to a complicated list. Try to find out what ingredients you use frequently and add them to your list. You might like to try something new!

It can save you time by knowing which recipes are your favorites. There are many websites that provide recipe databases. You can also search the ingredients online and print the recipe. Another option is to take a screenshot of the ingredient listing and add it to Evernote. This will allow you to easily find it later.
