For all of you preparing for a January Whole30, I have the list for you!! These are my must-have pantry staples for surviving a round of Whole30. As I prep to start a round of Whole30 on January 2, I am busy making meal plans and grocery lists.

I believe effective prepping and planning ahead is the key to Whole30 success. Hectic mornings and busy evenings can easily derail one from the plan, so having essentials on hand is extra helpful. The following items will be making VERY frequent appearances in my favorite recipes and meal plans, so I like to stock up. Nearly all of these items can be found in your local grocery store, but if you’re looking to simplify and buy on-line or in bulk, I’ve included suggestions and links on where to purchase. Thrive Market is my favorite one stop shop for most of the essentials. They have the best organic items at a discount. In a few cases, I’ve included homemade versions that are just as good and can save you some $$!

Cool! So do the larabars have sugar in them? What about the chocolate ones?
They contain natural sugars from the dates. Sorry, those flavors containing chocolate aren’t approved. 🙁
