Yes folks, it's time for another edition of Pimp My Grocery List!
If you have no idea what I'm talking about, you can get the lowdown here. Basically, I am 'renovating' readers' grocery lists, suggesting healthier options for what they put in their carts every week. I'm not trying to make everything spic and span, now - just trying to make it a little bit healthier while keeping the convenience and tastiness of the original product. If you want your very own grocery list pimped, email me at info[at]wholesomehedonist[dot]com!
This week I'm tackling the list of my good friend and fellow mama Fazilah. See her list after the jump:
I'm so excited to pimp my very first grocery list!

Naaz, a friend and fellow member of my book club, came to me with her list. I've got to admit, at first I was intimidated by how clean it was! Does this girl need any help at all?!?
See her list - any my suggestions - after the jump...
In the few months since I've started this site, I've had some great feedback from you guys and I must say, that's what's kept me going. When you are marketing crackers, you rarely get people coming up to you telling you how much they love your Grainy Crunch'ems, so I find it so refreshing and inspiring to hear that you like my writing or that you are using the information or trying the recipes.
All this is to say that I want to hear from you even more. I'm introducing a new feature on the site called Pimp My Grocery List. No, this doesn't mean that you give me your grocery list and I give you back some crazy, blinged-out car (though that would be fun!)
What I hope to do is take specific items from your grocery list and suggest healthier options instead. So, instead of the sugary fibre bar I might suggest a more natural granola bar, or instead of the noodles and pasta dinner, I might introduce you to a healthier quick dinner option. I'll write a post for every grocery list so other readers can get some ideas and inspiration too.
Wanna try it? Great! Send me your grocery list by email (info[at]wholesomehedonist[dot]com) or tweet me (hashtag #pimpmylist). I'll pick 2-5 items from your list and suggest alternatives. If you live in Canada, I'll suggest specific products; if you live elsewhere, I might suggest types of products as I won't have access to your actual grocery store. And don't worry, if you want to keep your abominable shopping habits a secret, I'll refer to you as Anonymous in my post.
So email me, tweet me and spread the word! I can't wait to pimp your list!
