Healthy Food Haul

Today I was fortunate enough to spend the entire day downtown with my lovely mother. My favorite thing in the world is health food stores. I could spend hours upon hours roaming up and down the aisles. If I had unlimited income I would buy and test out every single product.

While downtown we stopped at a little gem we found a while back called Herbs and Nutrition. I spent $40 in total although I'm sure it could have been a lot worse if I wasn't such a frugal and cheap person.

Heres what I bought:

1. Organic Nori (I sense a sushi recipe in the near future!) ($3.99)

2. 3 Crofter's Organic Jams: Apple, Raspberry and Mango (I love these, so tasty) ($2.99 each)

3. 2 Tempeh (one with kasha and one plain) ($3.49 each)

4. Coconut Oil (on sale for $7.99)

5. Vegetarian Chick'n Bouillon Cubes ($2.99)

6. Daiya cheddar cheese (I LOVE this stuff!) ($5.99)

7. Vegetarian Chicken Broth ($2.99)

8. Organic Capers ($2.99)

* We also stopped at Fortinos and bought

7. 2 bags of quick oats ($1.99 each)

8. 0% fat plain greek yogurt (LOVE!) ($3.99)

My mom is the awesomest person in the world and suggested we stop for lunch at a korean BBQ on Bloor Street. Honestly the portion sizes were huge and they brought out free traditional korean appetizers.

Yum! Free appetizers: Kim Chi, Bean sprouts, eggplant, and
other unknown but yummy things

I ordered the vegetarian bento box and it came with an avocado roll, avocado carrot roll, and cucumber roll, salad, 2 dumplings, and a miso soup. My mom ordered a seafood bento box.
