Add these dairy items to your next keto shopping list.
While many dairy items are keto-friendly, be sure to specifically watch carb counts on yogurt and choose something from our list of the best keto yogurts to buy. But if you can, try not to go too overboard with dairy items in general as this can cause some to stall with their weight loss.
- Butter, grass-fed (like Kerrygold)
- Cheeses, including cream cheese, cottage cheese, hard + aged cheeses, shredded & string cheeses.
- Cottage Cheese (full fat)
- Eggs
- Ghee
- Heavy cream
- Milks, low-carb & no sugar added–unsweetened almond milk & zero sugar milk are great choices!
- Yogurt, full-fat & no sugar added
If you want a little sample of everything, try these tasty & affordable cheese flights from Costco!
Hip Tip: Kerrygold can be found for a steal at Sam’s Club and Costco as well. Check out these other low-carb finds you can score at warehouse stores!
Meats are a keto shopping list staple.
Generally, all meats are a-okay for keto!
Ideally, you’d like to find cuts of meat with higher fat content such as dark meats and ground beef mixed with a higher percentage of fat. Avoid ones that have sugary seasonings or marinades already added.
Some of our favorite varieties of meat include:
- Beef, grass-fed
- Chicken, breast, thighs, and ground
- Pork
- Salmon
- Sausage
- Shrimp
- Steak, especially ribeye
- Tuna
- Turkey, whole or ground
Hip Tip: Check out these tips to help you pick out the best keto cuts of meat!
As long as you avoid added sugars, deli meats make a great keto snack.
Avoid meats that have been glazed or have added sugars. You’d be surprised just how many carbs are packed into honey-glazed turkey and ham!
You can throw deli meats on some keto bread for sandwiches, make a fancy charcuterie board for parties, or just snack on them as-is! For the best deals on deli meats, take a stroll through your nearest Sam’s Club, Costco, or ALDI to pick up some affordable cured meat trays.
Here are a few meats we like to keep stocked at home:
Some types of produce can fit perfectly into a keto diet.
Contrary to what we may think, not all veggies and fruits are keto-friendly!

-
- Artichokes
- Asparagus
- Avocado (we ❤️ this OXO 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer!)
- Berries – Strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries

Frozen goods are a convenient addition to our printable keto foods list!
While we’ve already listed out some of our favorite vegetables for keto, you can’t beat the convenience (and lasting freshness) of varieties that come in frozen bags. We’re constantly keeping our freezers stocked with riced cauliflower, broccoli florets, and cauliflower florets!
Not to mention, a healthy dose of roasted veggies is a super simple and time-saving side dish that goes with just about any keto dinner. 🙌
Here are some other frozen foods we like to keep handy:
- Avocado chunks (especially when it’s out of season!)
- Berries
- Keto Frozen dinners (like these Quest pizzas)

Like we mentioned with avocados, the frozen section is a great place to shop for any veggies that are out-of-season where you live!
Hip Tip: Buying in bulk to save some extra cash? Your freezer is the best spot to store any extra goods you don’t plan on eating right away.

You can make low-carb baked goods with these keto shopping list staples.
