LARGE FAMiLY GROCERY HAUL 🛒😉

[@carolynturk-hu7je]

Potatoes do not go in the fridge either! Store potatoes in a cool, dark place with good ventilation. Potatoes need airflow to stay fresh, so store them in a container like a basket, open box or breathable bag. The fridge is too cold and will trigger the potatoes' starches to convert to sugar.😊❤

[@carolynturk-hu7je]

Like other root vegetables and tubers, sweet potatos are best stored in a cool, dark place. Not the refrigerator, the refrigerator is actually too cool and can change the cell structure of the potatoes, making them hard in the center with white spots. Refrigeration can diminish the flavor of sweet potatoes as well. Ventilation is another key to properly storing sweet potatoes - another strike against the crisper drawer according to Southern Living. Keep in a paper bag or basket in a kitchen cabinet, pantry or basement. Choose a cabinet that's not near the heat of your oven. They prefer a temperature between 50 to 60 degrees. 😊❤

That would a great idea to have Meijer sell your family eggs !!!! U go girl!!!!!

[@margjeweijdt1510]

I'm always in awe of American supermarkets, they have so much stuff. I always get my fruit and veg from the farmers market, that way I feel like the farmers get a good deal, or at least a better deal than going to a supermarket. Hope you are all well! Have a lovely week.

[@NickiMinajNewSongs]

We always love hearing the differences

[@AngelaPattillo-ov1kx]

I remember as a kids my parents always went to the farmers market in the summer I loved going there but now you can hardly find them

Heather, you and your videos have been a gift to so many! Holding you and your family in prayer, and especially praying that you come out from under the dark cloud you're feeling. 💓💓

[@Justthebells10]

Awwe thank you

[@rhondaclark3405]

I never put these items in the fridge: tomatoes, avocado, onions, potatoes - just store away from heat sources. Also, a great way to speed up the ripening process of an avocado is to place in a bag with a banana. Tomatoes are so pretty sitting in the windowsill. Hope you get feeling better 🙏

[@jenniferrosenthal7731]

I also don’t put apples or oranges or cantaloupe in the refrigerator. In addition to the things you were speaking of.

[@cookingwithhistory6694]

A general refergeration guide is, store your food like it was at the store. If it is refrigerated at the store, refrigerate it.

[@hayleyluvshunter]

I agree Heather that the grocery store and grocery shopping is so fun. It's fun seeing everything and choosing everything, not sure exactly, lol! I look forward to going

[@michellestrong2071]

Awesome as ever and you be full of joy full of happy tears when she is married you have an awesome family you have a blessed day

[@deewoodz816]

You have the most beautiful Meijer store. Mine literally has flys swarming around the produce section. Thank you for taking us along 💗

I love that you shop at Meijer. It's my favorite place to shop for groceries.

[@carolynturk-hu7je]

Bolthouse will send you coupons too! Remember they sell, carrots, dressings, juices, smoothies in the produce dept.😊❤

[@robertathompsonzellmer2027]

For your berries, wash them in a baking soda and water and store them in Mason jars. They will last for a few weeks. I have been doing this for few years, and it has saved me a ton of money. If you store lettuce in paper towels in a zip lock bag it will last about 2 weeks. Avacafos store in the fridge in water this slows down the ripening process and thus also works for lemons and limes.

[@AngelaPattillo-ov1kx]

Yes they last so long in mason jars

[@Justthebells10]

Ok gotcha

[@nancyimbleau2023]

I found the cheez it receipe on pintrest Thank you going to try and making them.

[@melissarakus118]

Just a tip for you..when you see the 7 for $7 signs, it’s mix and match anything with that sign! And any items after that 7th item, will all be $1.

[@Justthebells10]

Oh really. I didnt know that

[@crowdedisolation]

Heather, you remind me so much of an actress that used to be on TV. I think I first saw her on a soap opera. I am racking my brain to remember who she was. Has anyone ever told you that?? Love your videos. I'm a new watcher and don't know much about your family yet, but I will soon. Nice grocery haul. I love grocery hauls the most.

[@Justthebells10]

They havent 😊

[@cherylswinkunas2613]

I love watching your grocery haul videos! All of our boys are grown and married, so it's just the two of us at home. I miss my grocery store trips!😄

[@cassycisneros489]

Potatoes and tomatoes are best kept at room temperature.

[@starmud2]

Sumo oranges can be pricey, they are usually in season December to April… but they are seriously the best oranges you can get 😅 easy to peel and each slice is like a pocket of OJ. I’ve also noticed all the strawberries lately look fantastic but turn bad very quickly…

[@robinjones3180]

Haley is right there is a way to make Cheez-Its with thin sliced cheese. You fold them into fours they have that recipe for keto put them on the baking sheet and put a hole in the middle.

[@veggielovinaccountant]

I am opposite of you this month. I need everything! I have only gotten a couple of things over the last couple of months, so I did a big shop at my local grocery store for on sale items and am planning a big haul at Sam’s also. The sticker shock of prices though. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤪

[@pamk2061]

I love that you are watching your sugars. My husband and I are on Keto. I have lost 70#'s and my husband has lost 55. On the yogurt GoGo yogurt, check the sugars. For milk Fairlife is better in the sugar dept. Potatoes are supper high in carbs which turns into sugar. We still eat berries and grapes along with green beans, carrots, cabbage and broccoli. Good luck ladies!!!

[@Riri-ho7pm]

Yups! The order we eat food is also important, whenever possible eat carbs first or couple simple carbs or sugar with food rich in fiber so your insulin would not spike so fast and so much.

[@jalyn30]

Hi Heather! Just. a couple tips: potatoes and sweet potatoes don't go in the fridge, they should go in a cool dry space, like a drawer or in a bin on your pantry shelves. All citrus shouldn't go in the fridge either, a loose grouping in bowls on your counters or in your pantry. Same with apples, but those aren't as bad in the fridge. Love you guys and your hearts and content ❤

Ma Bell. 1:16 😢 you might be experience menopausal symptoms. I suggest you check online and look for some support suppliments. If they dont help, speak to your GP doc and get some low does anti depressants. Don't dismiss emotional symptoms. You deserve the help.

Sumo citrus is AMAZING!!!!! They aren’t in season for long, but if you go back soon for fresh fruit, try them! They’re awesome! They are sweet, juicy, easy peel and seedless!

[@Justthebells10]

When you pick a pineapple, pull on the highest center leaf. If it comes out easily then it's ready to eat. If the leaf doesn't come out then it's not ready to eat. Just FYI.

The biggest tip I learned to keep berries from going bad is to put them in mason jars!!! My berries Keep for 2+ weeks!! Don't wash them first. Bring home and put in jars and put in fridge. If you want to wash them first they have to be completely dried to store in the jars to stay fresher in the fridge. I almost never have moldy fruit anymore!!

[@mimi0424]

Oh & you can make egg bites in a muffin pan. Add whatever you want. They keep in the fridge all wk. Its a great snack & you heat them in a damp paper towel! Theres so many ideas on tiktok ! You can even make something called a "Chaffle....its made on a mini waffle machine but reg one works too..just scramble eggs in a measuring cup..add 1 egg & a little bit of cheese...its better if you grate it yourself bc it melts better..but add a pc of sausage to 2 of them..or bacon you make in the oven! Or ham..Canadian bacon..etc. all low carb...you must remember that carbs are what turn into sugar.. Youll lose a ton this way..& maintain as long as you keep your carbs under 30. Some do 20..& by carbs i mean "NET" CARBS..so ALWAYS subtract the FIBER from carbs. Ex..if u hv 10 carbs & 5 g of Fiber..you have 5 NET carbs & thats what you count! I also hv to drink atleast 96oz of fluid per day. You must flush the toxins & salt from your body. Even if u don't salt. Stuff has sodium regardless...& eat 3xs a day & 3 snacks..all w protein in them! The sugar free pudding mix & a 30mg premier or Fairlife Cold drink makes guilt free DELICIOUS PUDDING. Even add whipped toppings that little bit of 2g of sugar is nothing. & i drink Sugar Free Ocean Spray Cranberry & Diet Gingerale or Zero Sugar kind..do half & half its so good Or ANY Diet Ocean Spray has ZERO Sugar Cran Grape..Cran Apple..cran pineapple etc. All delicious! & its not tart like reg Cranberry i promise!

[@jaydenmcallister1997]

I think it’s the temperature settings on the fridge are fridge does the same if u push anything back to far it freezes our waters and juices and milk and eggs be freezing in the fridge but yes I wounder why it does that

[@nancyanne1402]

I had my freezer too full and it “messed” with the temp sensors. Everything in my fridge froze. We had to take stuff out so it didn’t freeze solid (milk, creamer) I couldn’t buy mayo (it separated) my eggs were freezing. I struggled for several weeks while I investigated fridge brands and prices. I bought a Frigidaire (match the stove) getting new dishwasher and microwave soon. I just got another side by side. Once I transferred and used a bunch from the old freezer, the old fridge started working correctly. Yay! 2 fridges! I can shop once a week and get all his milk in one trip! He drinks 6-7 gallons a week. He had to cut back for that time because I would not go to the store every day.

[@careyparks2316]

Take the strawberries and take vinegar, water and baking soda and clean them for 10 to 15 minutes. After cleaning, take the berries and take paper towels and dry them off. Take mason jars and store them in the fridge

They are in season (kinda at the end) but you must try them. They are definitely a little expensive but worth it. You get the best deal at Costco.
