Today is day nine of my 31 Days of Clean Eating, Meal Planning and Prep series. Cleaning out your pantry is one thing, but knowing what to replace your processed foods with is another. Today I am sharing my healthy pantry clean eating printable to help guide you in the process of making your pantry stocked full of real and healthy foods. These are only suggestions and you do not have to have them all, but they are a great place to start.
Clean Eating Pantries Mean Healthy Families!
Nuts and Seeds – Nuts and seeds are full of energy, protein, packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and omega-3 fatty acids. I love nuts because they are crunchy, can be creamy and are a great snack. You don’t have to have all of these in your pantry, but pick a few and you will be good.
Peanuts
Walnuts
Cashews
Almonds
Sunflower Seeds
Pumpkin Seeds
Tahini (ground sesame paste)
Flax Seeds
Chia seeds
Natural Peanut Butter
Almond Butter
Coconut Butter
Beans and Legumes – The More You Eat The More You Toot :) – When it comes to beans whether they are dried or canned they are a great source of fiber, low in fat, contain no cholesterol, and are high in folate, potassium, iron, and magnesium. Be careful if you use canned as they can contain sugar and lots of salt. Always read your labels!

Black Beans
Lentils (French, Green, and Red varieties)
Kidney Beans
