Q&A: What items are the staples to healthy eating?

I am wanting have healthy dinner meals without planning them for 2 weeks! I need to know what items I should get. Im not so sure how to put this. Like what meats, and vegetables and stuff. Enough to last 2 weeks with variety, and the best website to go to, to get healthy meal plans! maybe even one that prints off a grocery list of the items you need to complete the meals!

try sparkpeople.com

you do not have to buy anything or to pay, it’s free. Register with
your details, and create your own customised diet plan, workout, food
diary, post on forums, join groups, find local groups in your area and
meet same-minded people in real life.
you can create a simple eating plan and it gives you a list of foods to buy.

Answer by Annabel
Protein: Tofu, White Meat Chicken, Fish

Starch: Whole Grain Pasta, Brown Rice, Potato (to bake or roast w/herbs)

Veggies: Spinach, Broccoli, Carrots, any others you like

Fruits: Apples, Berries (all kinds), Grapes, Pears

Try to eat something from the protein, veggie and starch categories each night, and something from the fruits for dessert. Keep in ming when you prepare them that veggies are healthiest raw or steamed, whole grains are best, and if you use too much oil in your cooking healthy food can become very unhealthy.

Good luck! Hope this helps.
