Hi friends! Today I’m sharing my updated list of healthy Costco items for 2022! I’ve also updated the printable PDF grocery shopping list for those of you on my email list!
There are healthy things there that we don’t buy because we don’t need that much or whatever, so this list is NOT extensive of ALL healthy things at Costco. We also purchase unhealthy items there, but it isn’t on the list because we don’t buy them every time. For the most part, we try to avoid buying Costco amounts of snack foods/desserts/etc.
UPDATE: Scroll to the end to see a video of me unloading one of my Costco hauls!
I hope this list gives you ideas! Keep in mind every Costco is different (even within the same state), so depending on your location, you may have different items available!
