Publix

In our last blog post, I showed you how to find "real food" at Aldi. This week I'm showing you what Publix has to offer. Publix has a wide variety of some harder to find items such as almond milk yogurt, coconut aminos, and healthier salad dressings. Follow us on Instagram to find a shopping tutorial under our "highlights" tab.

• Pre-cut fruit and vegetables- Sometimes life gets hectic and you need a little extra help. Buying pre-cut produce can be a bit pricier, but is a huge time saver. Publix has a great selection of pre-cut fruit and veggies along with some spiralized varieties to use in place of pasta.
