During and after cleanse: grocery list

I probably should have started with this sort of list, but I guess better late than never.  Some people have asked about the basics for getting started, and there are some consistent ingredients that are in most of the recipes.  I am sure this is not exhaustive, but it gives you a foundation from which to start your shopping.

DURING CLEANSE
(The "co" next to some items means to get them at Mountain People's Co-Op in bulk.  Always much fresher and tastier than what you can get at the grocery store.)  Also, always buy organic whenever you possibly can.

unsweetened almond milk
coconut milk (I wasn't able to find pure, uncanned coconut milk so I just used canned)
coconut water - this is a really nice alternative beverage
raw almonds - co
raw almond butter - co
chia seeds - co
flax seeds - co
sesame seeds - co
raw cashews - co
frozen organic blueberries, raspberries, peaches
brown rice syrup
quinoa - co
brown rice - co
carrots
lettuce
spinach
avocados
dates - co
currants
garlic
scallions
really good olive oil (you'll be using this a lot)
sea salt
grapeseed oil
cold pressed sesame oil
kale
kalamata olives
parsley
sprouts
lemons and limes
green tea (if you are using caffeine)
herbal tea
Perrier (I believe the only carbonated water that doesn't have carbonation added but I could be wrong)
Lara Bars - if you are an athlete and need something like this, these are all-natural.  Many of them only have clean ingredients
garbanzo beans - co
adzuki beans - co
chicken (if eating meat)
hemp protein powder - co

ELIMINATION DIET
rice crackers
rice bread
rice pasta

TIPS
- I would cut up and cook 3-4 chicken breasts at the beginning of the week to put on/in recipes during the week.  Sometimes if I didn't have a lunch planned I would just do the Big Green Salad and put chicken or extra nuts on it.  Or do the same with quinoa or brown rice - throw a bunch of veggies in, add olive oil, salt, pepper and combine.
- Always carry something that could be a snack in case you get stuck somewhere without being able to eat.  Lara Bars or Odwalla Juices can help in an emergency.
- Nori seaweed Sheets are great to make a wrap with.  If you have leftover salad from the night before, put some hummus (or any dip) on the nori sheet, then put the salad inside and wrap.  Really, it works with nearly any ingredients - just use as an alternative to bread.
