I’ve had many people ask for a Keto Grocery List. At first, I was hesitant because I am a picky eater and tend to stick to the same foods over and over. I know that most people eat a larger variety of foods than I do. At the same time, when I was researching Keto Grocery Lists so many were very overwhelming and included so many foods that even after almost a year of following a Keto Diet I have never seen listed in any recipes. I created a basic Keto Grocery List as a helpful resource since my goal is to make following a Keto Diet simple. Even so, you won’t need everything on this list. It will just be a helpful guide when you are at the grocery store. In fact, I would suggest creating a meal plan and shopping weekly for those foods that you know you will be eating so that you aren’t wasting a ton of food and money. If you aren’t familiar with meal planning, check out my 5 Easy Steps to Meal Planning for simple steps to get started. In fact, I would go through this list and immediately eliminate any foods that I already have on hand as well as items that I don’t love. You also don’t need to stock every single kind of nut butter, sweeteners, etc. Instead, pick the ones that you like the most and stock those. Then, you can build your keto pantry over time.
In case you were wondering, there are several different sweeteners on the list. I personally use Swerve Granulated, Swerve Confectioners, and Monk Fruit. Xanthan Gum is a thickening agent used in many soups and sauces. I have only used coconut flour in all of my recipes due to my daughter’s almond allergy.

This really helos me!! Thank you sooo much!!☺
I’m so glad it was helpful. 🙂
I only have one problem. Used to be a diet pepsi user! I really need to find a drink that you can use. It used to be Crystal light but I don’t think it uses correct sugar . Of course drink water and decaf tea. Would like something like punch. Suggestions? Thank you.
You know, I used to drink 10-12 diet cokes a day but quit several years ago. I don’t really have a good suggestion besides water and unsweet tea as most drinks use sweeteners that most avoid when following a keto diet. That being said, I enjoy an occasional Sprite zero as a treat and have still had great results. 🙂
Try” Sparkling Ice ” brand beverage…many flavors at all grocery stores.
Aldi (if any are near you) has sparkling waters that don’t have sugars. They’re similar to la croix. The lemon lime one is delicious.
Thanks for the tip.
Soo right! Aldi sparkling water especially the White Grape!!!
Virgil’s or zevia soda is a good alternative
This list is great. My wife would like a what cannot to eat list. I assume this list is a what you can eat list.
I’d stay away from foods not on this list or do a quick Google or Pinterest search and you’ll prob find many lists of foods not to eat. I’m glad this list was helpful.
I am new to this diet and I thought hot dogs were NOT allowed
You’ll find many different lists of keto-friendly foods. My philosophy is for each person to do what works for them. I don’t personally eat hotdogs, but my hubby loves them and they are very low in carbs so they work for him.
I am also allergic to Almonds and Hazelnuts (filberts) it hard to get recipes with other flours but Almonds. I want to start Keto.
I am a diabetic, just take pills no shots. I like to kinda eat the same thing for breakfast and meals. Thank you for your information.
Here is a link to my Keto recipe index. My daughter is allergic to almonds so I use coconut flour.

So is salami Keto approved? I’ve read mixed opinions.
That is totally up to you. For many it is.
Thank you for sharing this information.
Sure!
Why aren’t ripe olives on the list?
It’s just a basic list and doesn’t cover every single keto item. I personally hate olives so I’ve don’t think about them being keto.
Your basic keto list has covered pretty everything needed for a beginner keto diet. Thanks for sharing.
Sure! So glad it was helpful.
