10 is pineapple whole30 approved Ideas

Wildly popular at the beginning of the year, the Whole30 diet encourages 30 days spent eating from a select list of foods. The founders of this diet claim that a full month following their guidance will result in “food freedom,” along with sharing that others have experienced improvement to problems they weren’t even aware were problems. The Whole30 benefits range from weight loss, improved skin health, fewer headaches and migraines, and relief from chronic pain.

Let’s be honest, this is one of those diets that can feel really restrictive. There is a pretty significant list of off-limits food, which makes it feel as if the allowed foods are few and far between. With enough research and preparation, however, you can enjoy a variety of meals and snacks while on the Whole30.

If you’re five days in and already tired of eggs and steamed broccoli, we’ve got a treat for you, as we break down a Whole30 food list with protein, fruits, vegetables, and more. Peruse this shopping list of 100 foods you can eat on Whole30.

Whole30 Food List

Whole30 Protein List

Protein is a part of every Whole30 meal since they encourage a balanced plate that includes a “palm” of protein. While chicken breasts are certainly an option, we know eating those day in and day out can be so boring.

1. Eggs. Don’t leave eggs for breakfast alone, they make a great addition to salads, stir-fries, and snacks. Get started by making sure you clear on how to make the perfect hardboiled egg. Then adapt Nigella Lawson’s Eggs in Purgatory by skipping the bread and parmesan cheese.

2. Beef Chuck Roast. A 30-day experiment with eating whole foods is a great time to branch out and cook with new cuts of meat. A veggie-laden recipe like this Korean Beef Bowl with zucchini noodles is bound to become your favorite.

3. Beef Steak. Flank steak, filet mignon, sirloin steak, or tri-tip. Steaks of all kinds are allowed on the Whole30 diet.

4. Beef Hot Dogs

5. Ground Beef. It’s hard to beat the affordability of ground beef and paired with a Whole30-approved Italian Sausage makes for some killer meatballs that can be eaten alongside yellow squash noodles and marinara sauce.

6. Ground Chicken. Limiting red meat is important for protecting your health for the long term and the World Cancer Research Fund recommends no more than three servings a week. No worries, ground chicken makes a great substitute in recipes calling for ground beef!

7. Chicken Breasts. We may have promised that you don’t have to eat chicken breast every day of your 30 days doing the Whole30, but we’d be remiss to mention how simple they are to prep in advance and toss on salads for a quick and delicious lunch. We’re pretty obsessed with this Fully Loaded Grilled Ceasar Salad.

8. Chicken Sausage

9. Whole Chicken. Slather it with seasonings and drop it the crockpot on low before heading off the work or out to run errands. When you return, add sweet potatoes and green beans for a full family dinner or shred it to add to a soup later in the week.

10. Tuna Fillets

11. Canned Tuna. Speaking of quick and easy, canned tuna is a convenience food for the ages and the star of our Mexican Tuna Boats. Just be certain you’re buying the Whole30 approved option by SafeCatch.

12. Salmon. Packed with omega-3 fatty acids, this heart-healthy fish belongs in any diet, whether or not you’re following the Whole30 diet.

13. Canned Salmon

14. Halibut. When choosing protein, it is typically better to load up on lean options and reserve pork and red meat for an occasional treat. If you’re trying halibut for the very first time, we highly recommend Halibut with Citrus-Ginger Glaze straight from the Whole30 founder herself.

15. Cod. Another white fish that belongs in your shopping cart, cod has 17 grams of protein in a single serving along with high B-12, phosphorus, and niacin contents.  in a single serving along with high B-12, phosphorus, and niacin contents.

16. Tilapia

17. Shrimp. If you’re finding yourself with a craving for Italian, we’ve got you covered with a recipe for Romesco Garlic Shrimp with Zucchini Noodles.

18. Scallops. Look, sometimes it’s nice to feel a little fancy, even if that’s in the form of splurging on a special dinner at home. That’s exactly how these Pan-Seared Scallops with Spinach-Mushroom Saute will make you feel–so fancy.

19. Pork Sausage

20. Bacon. Interestingly enough, this is one of the more controversial foods eaten on the Whole30. Some people take it being an allowed food on this diet as a license to go hog-wild, but that was never the intent. As Whole30 co-founder Dallas Hartwig explains, bacon should be eaten in moderation as a “yellow light food.”

Produce: Whole30 Vegetable List

Vegetables are one of the foods that are allowed without limits on the Whole30. The only vegetables that aren’t allowed are corn, lima beans and peas. Grab a pencil, because you’re going to want to add these other options to your list.

21. Brussels Sprouts. Pair this delicious and hardy vegetable with a few other Whole30 approved items in this Brussels Sprout, Asparagus, and Broccoli Saute.

22. Broccoli

23. Asparagus

24. Bok Choy. The veggies on your plate shouldn’t be outshone by your meat, they should be the shining stars of each meal! Don’t believe us, try this Baby Bok Choy, Sugar Snap Peas, and Garlic sauté and report back.

25. Green Beans

26. Cabbage

27. Sugar Snap Peas. Now that we’ve established that sugar snap peas make an amazing pairing with bok choy, you might be interested to know that they contain folate, vitamin c, iron, and potassium.

28. Tomatoes

29. Arugula

30. Zucchini. Sadly for the pasta lovers out there, spaghetti, rotini, and ravioli don’t fit with the Whole30 diet guidelines. There is good news, with a spiralizer handy, you can turn zucchini in noodles and add it to your Ginger Shrimp Zucchini-Noodle Stir Fry.

31. Turnips

32.  Yellow Squash

33. Acorn Squash. If you’re looking for a nutritious way to get more carbs on your plate, look no further, acorn squash is your answer. This squash contains 30 carbohydrates in a single serving along with 9 grams of fiber and 37% of your daily value of vitamin C.

34. Celery

36. Kale

37. Sweet Potatoes. The Whole30 diet isn’t a low-carb diet, but without a pantry full of carbohydrates that aren’t grains or legumes, you’re going to find yourself struggling to create a balanced plate. Enter, the sweet potato. Boil em, mash em, put em in a stew.

38. Butternut Squash

39. Eggplant

40. Bell Peppers. Are you looking for a breakfast that is a little more than just eggs and bacon? Look no further, these Eggs in Pepper Cups are among our favorite, easy breakfasts that are also Whole30 compliant.

41. Beets

42. Shallots

43. Swiss Chard. A popular part of the Whole30 diet because it is hardy enough to use as a replacement for tortillas or wraps, swiss chard is a green loaded with vitamin K and calcium. It’s an important ingredient in these Veggie Quiche Patties, which are Whole30 compliant if you skip the cheese.

44. Carrots

45. Cucumber

46. Cauliflower. How Americans feel about cauliflower lately reminds me a little of the story of the ugly duckling. Once overlooked and disliked, this veggie is getting a lot of attention for its ability to transform into a rice-like side.

Produce: Whole30 Fruit List

Like vegetables, fruit isn’t limited or restricted on the Whole30 diet. Before you grab an apple, however, it is worth noting that all snacks on this diet are meant to be treated like a “mini-meal.” Make sure all carbohydrates are paired with protein and fat, too.

47. Strawberries

48. Apples. For a simple snack, slice an apple and drizzle it with Whole30 approved nut butter, like no-sugar-added almond butter or cashew butter.

49. Pears. Sure, you can eat pears as a snack when hunger strikes, or you can slice it up and pair with greens and walnuts for a Hearty Winter Slaw.

50. Bananas.

51. Dates. Sugar might be off-limits, but these naturally sweet fruits are delicious as a snack on their own but even better when they’re wrapped in bacon.

52. Figs. Loaded with vitamin A, C, K, magnesium, and more, figs make for a decadent addition to salads.

53. Grapes

54. Apricots

Whole30 Fats List

65. Olive Oil. Making it through Whole30, or doing any kind of cooking, would be pretty difficult without a bottle of olive oil handy. Thanks to the omega-3 fatty acids in this fat, olive oil can decrease your risk of heart disease and lower blood pressure and cholesterol.

66. Coconut Oil. While coconut oil has kind of been the darling of the wellness world as of late, keep your intake of this fat moderate. It is a saturated fat, and should be reserved for occasional consumption.

67. Avocado Oil

68. Clarified Butter. While it might true that butter is off-limits for Whole30 dieters, clarified butter doesn’t break any rules. Thanks to the way this butter is processed, it is free from lactose and dairy proteins.

69. Lard. Although delicious, lard is pork fat and it is a saturated fat. So, reserve this fat for special recipes and stick with healthier oils for everyday cooking.

70. Sesame Oil

71. Almonds

72. Almond Butter. When shopping for a Whole30 approved almond butter, take a close look at the ingredient list. The right choice will list only almonds, salt, and sometimes palm oil.

73. Walnuts

74. Flax Seeds. As a plant-based source of omega-3 fatty acids, flax seeds made a great addition to your Whole30 diet.

75. Pine Nuts. If we haven’t already convinced you that the Whole30 diet doesn’t have to boring, this is the recipe that is going to win you over. Eat like Bridget Jones and make yourself Pan-Fried Salmon with Pine Nut Salsa.

Whole30 Spices and Herbs List

If your food is boring, changing things up could be as simple as trying new spices and herbs to give old recipes a new life.

76. Salt and Pepper. On the Whole30, iodized salt or sea salt are the two allowed salt options. Pepper is allowed in any form, just check herb blends for added sugars.

77. Basil

78. Oregano

79. Cumin. Taco Tuesday is getting an upgrade. Try these cumin-seasoned, Instant Pot Fish Taco Bowls but don’t forget to use a Whole30 approved mayonnaise in your dressing.

80. Chives

81. Dill

82. Curry Powder. This Chicken Curry only takes 10 minutes to prep and thanks to the yellow curry powder in the recipe it is loaded with flavor.

83. Paprika

84. Parsley

87. Sage

88. Lemongrass. The next time a take-out craving threatens to derail your Whole30 success, whip up some Lemongrass Chicken with Cilantro Cauliflower Rice. You’re welcome.

Pantry Staples

There’s good news for Whole30 dieters—many of your go-to, pantry staples get the seal of approval from the founders of this eating plan.

90. Almond Flour. Use this nut-flour as a replacement for breading chicken tenders or in place of bread crumbs in meatballs.

91. Arrowroot Powder

92. Bone Broth. Whether it’s made from chicken, turkey, pork, or beef, bone broth is a great way to add more flavor to your cooking.

93. Coconut Aminos. Soy sauce isn’t allowed on the Whole30 diet, but coconut aminos bring the same flavor to Asian-inspired cooking. A favorite among long-carb dieters, Egg Roll in a Bowl definitely belongs on your meal plan.

94. Mustards

95. Pickles

96. Dried Cranberries. Don’t be afraid to add a little sweetness to your salads, but make sure the dried cranberries you are adding to your shopping cart are free from added sugar.

97. Crushed Tomatoes. Many versions of jarred marinara sauce have added sugar, but you can easily whip up your own sauce if you keep a few cans of crushed tomatoes and plenty of Italian seasonings handy.

98. Fish Sauce

99. Red Wine Vinegar

100. Balsamic Vinegar. Salad dressing can be challenging on the Whole30 diet, but a simple Balsamic-Herb Vinaigrette can be made with a few basic ingredients.
