Vegan in Mumbai : Grocery Haul


I always try to eat clean on most of the days and i buy veggies from the local market. Buying seasonal fruits and veggies helps in consuming most of its nutrients. Let me show you what i buy usually at supermarkets.




I use lettuce on salads, wraps and on burgers. It is low in calories. Brown rice is so good for weight management. I bought India Gate Brown rice 1 kg. As summer is approaching i am trying to eat lighter avoiding breads and chapatis. Also bought packs of Saffola oats in different flavours for each day i ate the other two for breakfasts. Soya chunks from Nutrela, though least favourite but it's good in protein so i have this once in a week. Mushrooms are so yummy and healthy.





Bananas are great for energy so add it to smoothies or have it with peanut butter as post workout snack. I prefer eating whole fruit. Beans and Lentils are source of protein so i have it on lunches with rice . I have taken chickpeas, kidney beans, green and yellow lentils.




I love to snack on dried fruits. Taking a small amount is preferable. Then there is tomato puree for sauces and curries. I use Chilli sauce and Soy sauce for Chinese cuisine. There is vegan mayonaise available by Funfoods which goes by the name of Diet Mayonaise Eggless just use small amount on salads, wraps, sandwiches and pasta. I have Kissan or Mapro jam for breakfast, i am still on the search for no added sugars and natural fruit jam.

So these are few items that i buy when shopping for grocery. If you do like such posts please comment below.
