Meryl, larabars actually only have a few ingredients -

 Which are highly processed.

Aw! They say "unprocessed" on them so I thought they weren't. Oh well, still a good healthy snack. :]

I will look into agave nectar... sounds yum :) Thanks for the tip! The spinach salad sounds yum. I have never had it, and have none of those ingredients haha! & I will look into quinoa. I looked it up on google,... it looks really funny

Thank you for the tips clairelaine! I will keep them in mind while grocery shopping!

ourladymistletoe, I do have a big family, so perhaps I can try to cook dinner one night. I will try to find a good recipe for it! heh

Meryl, larabars actually only have a few ingredients - the one I ate yesterday had just peanuts, dates, salt. Yum! Thank you for the recipe site... it will come in handy! And I will definitely look into bircher muesli.. it sounds more appetizing. I am not a fan of legumes I think... (I  tried hummus, not really a fan) D:

I have a TJ's an easy drive of 15 minutes away. :) I might go there. I heard they have some delicious almond butter!

I think I will stick with the cow's milk then, since my family buys that already... one less thing for me to spend my own $$ on! ;)

Quinoa, interesting! I have never had it. The only thing I have been experimenting with is old fashioned rolled oats... which I find really gross when prepared with boiling water, so I just soak them overnight in milk.

Thanks for the list! I have tried Greek Yogurt many times, but find the tart taste to be displeasing. :(

Is Soy milk better than regular? I like the chocolate soy milk - but if normal milk is just as good, then I won't buy it.
