Ever wonder what the Powell Pack piles in their fridge? While this does change often, depending on what ?kick? we are on or how long we are in town, this list and picture pretty much sums up our staple cold items.
I bet you?re wondering if I actually went shopping for foods for these pics, or if I had to clean out some of the bad stuff. Believe it or not, our fridge looks like this MOST of the time. I will admit though ? I did do a slight reorganization before I snapped the shot ?. With so many hands in and out all day long, it rarely looks this neat!
So ?what is in your fridge? you ask? Here you go!
- Almond Milk, vanilla unsweetened: Tons of it. We only have 4 in there right now, but we usually stock no less than 6-8!
- Naked Juice, Green Machine :Cash?s new favorite drink, and one of my all-time favorites. We guzzle this stuff when we don?t have time to juice.
- Water: I ALWAYS keep one cold bottle of water in the fridge for my protein shakes?and get so upset when the kids take this out to drink and leave it out. There is nothing worse than a warm protein shake! But nothing better than a cold one. 😉
- Pineapple: Or ?ap-o? as Cash calls it. Pre-cut makes it more convenient for us to eat.
- Strawberries: We only have one container in this pic, but a few days ago there were three. Berries are SO low in calories and high in antioxidants! We usually also stock blue and blackberries. Mmmm.
- Corn Tortillas: A staple around here.
- Cilantro Jalepeno Hummus: We rarely buy hummus, but Matix tried a sample in Trader Joe’s the other day and was hooked!
- Apple Sauce, unsweetened: Entire family favorite. And great for baking!
- Prunes: Ummm?these keep us all regular, if you know what I?m sayin?.
- Avent Bottle
with my Secret Formula: Cash IS 2, and Cash STILL drinks a bottle. Hey, it helps him get some incredible nutrition, so I can?t say no!
- Udo’s 3-6-9 Oil
: Ah-mazing! And one of the ingredients in my baby/toddler formula.
- Carlson?s Cod Liver Oil
: CP?s favorite way to talk fish oil. It?s not bad with the lemon infusion.
- Bod.e Burn (protein energy drink): Addicted. That?s all I?m gonna say. You can?t see the sides of the fridge, but they are LOADED with more cans of Burn.
- Vemma NEXT, liquid kids vitamins: Yes, these are for the kids, but Chris and I drink them too. ? The most delicious way to get your vitamins. Not to mention totally convenient in the proportioned bottles.
- Ezekiel Bread, low sodium: For Matix?s lunches. He loves this, thank goodness!
- Eggs: The incredible, edible, egg. Enough said.
- Egg Whites: For a recipe, but have some left over. 🙂
- Mixed Greens, organic: I eat this by the handful. Keeps me fiber-full!
- Broccoli and Cauliflower, precut and prewashed: Makes veggies easy.
- Fuji Apples: Can?t go wrong with these, and great for juicing!
- Lemons: GREAT for juicing too!
- Apple Slices, prepackaged: We prefer whole apples, but sometimes we need a snack in a hurry! These are perfect.
- Squeezable Greek Yogurt: Kids love these protein-packed treats!
- Almonds, raw: The nut that has too many health benefits to name. Oh yeah, and they taste amazing.
- Shredded Cheddar Cheese: We don?t use often, but is great to have around for extra flavor every now and then. 🙂
- Nitrate-Free Deli Turkey, low sodium: Yummy in salads!

When you guys are choosing your fruits and veggies, do you choose organically grown? What are your thoughts on the benefits of organic over commercially grown produce?
Well not what you have to be sure but I sure do love what you have in yours!!
Thank you SO much for sharing what’s in your fridge 🙂 I think everyone loves a sneak peek into what other people eat. It gives lots of inspiration and some guidance.
We have apples, cantaloupe, watermelon, asparagus, mixed greens, eggs (good source of protein), almond butter, almond milk, coconut milk, tons of water, thin sliced chicken breast (great for salads), flax seeds, walnuts and grapes. Also have unsweetened applesauce, like you to eat and to bake with.
This was one of my favorite things to read. It gives great tips on what’s healthy. Plus, I enjoy reading about what your kids love so I can try it on my 3 year old son. Thanks for posting this Heidi!
Thank you so much for this post!! Lately I feel like I’ve hit a brick wall as far as my eating goes. I feel like I’m eating the same things over and over and over…and that is when I end up ordering a pizza! Thanks again for being so open and honest! Truly helps!
Thanks for sharing! I just moved out of my mom’s house and was always frustrated with what she kept in her fridge! From cookies in the pantry to ice cream in the freezer it just made me feel unhealthy! But now that I’m living on my own I try to keep apples, grapes, salads, fruit juice and healthy snacks in my fridge! Thanks for being such an inspiration!
Wow! Some of the items I can see us eating but my dear husband is a picky eater and most of the healthier stuff he wouldn’t touch with a 10′ pole! LOL Question for ya, how do you get picky lil ones to change their way of eating? I seen some of your recipes where other ingredients were added instead of the usual (like in the mac n cheese). Is there a big taste difference in those recipes? BTW, Love the layout of the fridge!
We have a lot of the same things in our fridge. Egg whites are my staple!!
I love this post! I’ve wanted to start taking fish oil, but I never know what to buy. I am going to get some of what y’all have and try it. Thanks for posting this!
