ClosePhoto:EatingWellAs a self-proclaimed foodie, walking into Whole Foods is like walking into heaven. Alas, my bank account doesn’t always approve. But just because I can’t afford to do all of my shopping there, that doesn’t stop me from picking up some choice 365 items (Whole Foods’ private label) when I stop in to grab specialty products I can’t get on my regular shopping trips to Kroger.With over 3,000 products in the 365 line to choose from, it could take you a while to figure out which match up to the name-brand products you love. I’ve done the comparison and am sharing the 365 products I don’t leave Whole Foods without.1. Ready-to-Eat Breakfast FoodsIf your weekday mornings are anything like mine, a quick, nutritious meal that will go over well with the entire family is a must. My go-to’s include those packed with protein, like the365 Buttermilk Protein Waffles. They come in a box of six for $3.69 and taste great with fresh berries and a drizzle of honey. If you’re a Kodiak power waffle devotee, you’ll find these comparable in terms of protein and taste—and less expensive, too.Yogurt is another food that shows up at my breakfast table several times per week. And with dairy prices rising, I opt for a 32-ounce container of365 Organic Whole Milk Plain Yogurtfor $3.99—as much as $2 less than name-brand yogurts. You might be lulled into choosing a similar product just because it boasts the wordprobioticon the label, but keep in mind that almost all yogurts (including this one) contain the gut-supporting microbes.Best Healthy Frozen Waffles to Buy & The Tasty Topping Combos to Try2. SnacksHummusisn’t hard to make but it does requiretahini—a sesame-seed paste that not everyone keeps on hand—making store-bought a great option. Artisan hummus brands like Cava are delicious, though a 16-ounce container can set you back about $8. Or you can get an equal-size tub without sacrificing taste or quality when you grab a tub of365 Organic Original Hummus($4.99). And because no dip is complete without something crispy to scoop it up, I always pick up a bag of365 Organic Restaurant Style White Corn Tortilla Chips. They’re $2.70 for 14 ounces and taste similar to Late July’s version for less than half the cost.3. Canned FishI’m a fan of fish but sometimes I just don’t want to deal with cooking a fillet from scratch. That’s why I always keep canned fish on hand. I use it as a quick protein-packed topping for salads or eat it right out of the can. My favorites are365 Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon($4.49 for 6 ounces) and365 No Salt Albacore Tuna in Waterthat’s pole and line caught (like Wild Planet’s but much less expensive) at 5 ounces for $2.99. Then you can makeBaked Garlicky Salmon BallsandOne-Pot Pasta with Tuna, both which are made with primarily pantry ingredients.5 Reasons You Should Eat More Canned Fish, According to a Dietitian4. Pantry StaplesKeeping mypantrystocked with staples is one of my top tips for whipping up a quick and hearty meal when you’re in a rush—you’d be surprised how quickly rice and canned beans (and a few vegetables) can turn into a tasty meal. Plus, most have long shelf lives so you don’t have to worry about them going bad anytime soon. I always have a few cans of365 Unsalted Organic Black Beanson hand (15.5 ounces for $1.59), as well as a few cartons of365 Organic Low Sodium Vegetable Broth(32 ounces for $2.49) to flavor myrice.
