Paleo Grocery List — 1 Week + Stock-Up

Total: ~$136.19 · 1 adult · high-protein (chicken & beef forward), mostly paleo

Organized for a single store loop: outer ring first (produce → meat → refrigerated), then frozen + pantry on the way out. Ties to the "mostly paleo / eat more protein" goal in Fitness Health.

🌱 Skip if the garden's producing: fresh herbs (thyme, oregano, sage, chives, basil), strawberries, cherry tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers. See Garden.

Quick Meal Ideas

• Slow-cooked chuck roast with carrots & onions (big batch → leftovers)
• Canned chicken + avocado + lettuce for a fast no-cook lunch
• Eggs + bacon + STOK cold brew to start the morning

Notes

• Prices are rural-NC estimates; the stock-up additions (60-ct eggs, extra chicken/beef, canned + jerky proteins) push this over a $100 weekly budget.
• STOK: black/unsweetened only — sweetened versions add dairy & sugar (not paleo).
• Jerky: pick versions without added sugar or soy for strict paleo.
• No bananas (allergy) and no olives (disliked) — already excluded.
