Whether you're starting a new diet or just trying to eat better, there are plenty of store-bought meals and snacks to help you stay on track. Here are a handful to stock up on.
2. Beyond Meat Ground "Beef," which is completely vegetarian, but you'd never know it. Use it in tacos, on pasta like bolognese sauce, or for any recipe you'd use ground beef.
3. Thinly coated Skinny Dipped Almonds. They come in cocoa, peanut butter, mint, espresso, and raspberry and are the perfect snack to get you through that 3 o'clock slump.
4. Skinny Pop Popcorn Cakes, ideal for when you're craving a little crunch. We love topping them with peanut butter and banana for breakfast or sliced deli turkey and honey mustard for lunch.
5. Smart Sweets Gummy Bears because even if you're trying to diet, candy doesn't have to be totally off-limits. Smart Sweets are low in carbs and sugar but still full of flavor.
6. RightRice Vegetable Rice, made from lentils, chickpeas, and green peas, and seasoned and offered in flavors like lemon-pepper and garlic-herb. Use it at the base of burrito bowls, stir fries, and more.
7. Hippeas White Cheddar Chickpea Puffs, a great popcorn replacement made from chickpeas.
8. Wild Zora BBQ Beef Meat & Veggie Bars, which are paleo, gluten-free and Whole30-approved and come in flavors you don't often see, such as curry turkey and Mediterranean lamb.
9. Halo Top Popsicles so you can satisfy your sweet tooth at only 50-60 calories a pop. These come in strawberry cheesecake, peanut butter swirl, chocolate chip cookie dough, and mint chip.
10. Cali'flour Foods Cauliflower Flatbreads, which you can use in lieu of tortillas, pita, or naan. We love to eat them like tacos, topped with slaw, avocado, and spicy grilled shrimp. Or add some salsa and crack an egg on them for lazy chilaquiles.
11. Inca Crops Inka Roasted Corn for when you just want something crunchy to snack on. It's crispy, salty, satisfying, and made entirely from Peruvian heirloom corn.
12. KIND Healthy Grains Clusters Granola, great for when you're craving a candy bar or something sweet. It comes in dark chocolate, peanut butter, and almond butter.
13. Banza Chickpea Pasta Mac 'n' Cheese. It's still totally decadent, and we always keep a few boxes on hand for lazy nights when we want something comforting.
14. Tribali Foods Frozen Patties, 100% grass-fed meat patties that come in Mediterranean beef, Thai-style curry, chipotle chicken, and umami-style beef. Eat them in a bun, on top of a salad, or break them up into your go-to stir fry recipe.
15. Kitchen & Love Quinoa Quick Meals for you're hungry and looking for a quick meal on the go. Find them seasoned with anything from jalapeño and mango to artichoke and roasted pepper.
16. Plant Snacks Cheddar Cassava Root Chips are ideal for when you're looking for something cheesy. They're made from cassava, which is a root vegetable that's naturally gluten-free and full of fiber.
17. Kettle and Fire Beef Bone Broth, made from 100% grass-fed cows. Use it to add flavors to soups, stews, and other recipes or as a mid-day snack to keep you full between meals.
18. Mary's Gone Crackers Super Seed Crackers, which are gluten-free and full of plant-based protein. They're a must-have addition to your next cheese plate.
