  • Atkins shopping list master...

    I want to make one of those lists in Excel, where you can print it each week, and just highlight what you need, like they do for regular shoppers...

    I want to include the induction list, but am looking for other things that maybe should be on there, like balsamic vinegar, etc...

    Any thoughts?

    well, balsamic vinegar should not be on an induction shopping list. Dr Atkins mentions that type by name in DANDR as not allowed in induction.

    you could just take your regular one and alter the template to leave off the high carb things but the veggies and such would depend on your tastes and what is in season. Also as you climb the ladder in OWL you will need to add more foods. In the back of your DANDR should be a section on an Atkins kitchen and a foods lists you could just put that in there too.

    have fun. I can't get into using lists casue i let my eyes and tastebuds shop the produce and meat sections.

        Cleo how do you figure Alfrado Sauce is not for induction?

          Lauren-- cream is allowed, but in such small quantities, that you couldn't have 1/3 of a cup of alfredo. You'd have to limit to the 2 Tbsp limit. Right?

              They are very thin slices of frozen meat that can be pan-fried incredibly easily.

                All I did during Induction was bring a copy of the Induction Acceptable Foods list with me during grocery shopping trips. All the food you can legally eat is listed on it. I found it particularly helpful in terms of the vegetables because there's more than lettuce on the foods list.

                  Me too - you can print out the wallet-sized one in the stickies of the induction forums
                  Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                  Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

                    I don't make Alfredo often but when I do I use the 3 oz of heavy cream and lots of butter under the "special category foods"

                      I tend to buy a TON of canned salmon/tuna.

                      Tuna salad for lunch, etc.
                      Salmon patties for dinner (canned salmon, mayo, egg, green pepper, scallion, parmesan cheese, crushed pork rinds, spices to taste - then all fried up til crispy).

                      I'm not a big red meat eater, so canned fish saves my meals all the time.
