Grocery List

I'm about to start a weight gain diet next week, so I'll be going grocery shopping this weekend. I'm having a tad bit of trouble compiling a list of food...I need help/suggestions on what I should get at the grocery store. Thanks in advance for any suggestions :)

here are some essentials but look at the weight gain food list in the weight gain thread.

1. nuts--all kinds

2. peanut butter--natural is best--great in oatmeal, with apples, on sandwiches

3. trail mix--great for snack

4. granola--great as a snack, on yogurt, in cereal

5. regular milk

6. regular yogurt

7. regular whole grain bread with at least 100 cals per slice

8. olive oil

9. starchy veggies--corn, potatoes, peas

10. cheese

11. regular cottage cheese

12. dark chocolate--as dessert, a snack, or melted with fruit

13. regular ice cream--for dessert

14. fruit--mangoes, bananas, and pineapples are great. avoid melons and fruits with high water content

More ideas -

Milk - at least 2%, but whole if you can manage it. If you prefer soy, check out the nutrition label - it varies a lot, and higher calorie ones will make it easier for you.

Fruit juice.

Dried fruit

Bars (if you like them) - granola bars, energy bars, protein bars, etc., for easy portable snacks

Full-fat salad dressing

Honey, jam, etc.

and definitely nuts of any kind (almonds, cashews, hazelnuts, walnuts, macadamias, pecans. . . ) and seeds (sesame, pumpkin, sunflower. . .)
