This Florida-based supermarket chain has stolen my heart.
Their yummy snacks, heat-and-eat freezer meals and quirky decor have made me a loyal fan for years.

But there are certain things that I always make room for in my shopping cart.
Here’s my list of must-buy items at Publix.
Raspberries
I love toppingovernight oatsandchia puddingwith freshraspberries, but they can be expensive.
This way, I can buy exactly how much I need and still enjoy the savings.
Typically, there will be a loaf that they’ll slice and wrap up for me.
They’re made to order with your choice of bread, meat, cheese, veggies and condiments.
I like to load mine up with lots of veggies: cucumbers, spinach, onions and green peppers.
Chopped Salad Kits
Sometimes, making salad can feel like such a chore.
Publix sells a bunch of different options, and they often go on sale for two for $7.
Black beans and rice is now one of our go-to dinners, and it’s so simple and healthy.
I’ll find things like chicken kebabs, stuffed jalapeno peppers and meatloaf.
Their ready-to-cook seasoned meatballs are delicious with pasta or a simple salad.
They’re sold in packs of 12 meatballs, so we usually have leftovers for another meal.
I typically buy the unsweetened variety, and it costs $4.11 at my local Publix.
I can sometimes find it at a 2-for-1 price, and I definitely stock up on those occasions.
