Asian Grocery Shopping Spree

Today I got up and decided it was time to change my diet. With all the rich foods (most carbs and fat) of the past week I really wanted to get some healthy eating in. At least until the middle of December, when I'll be baking my Christmas cookies and preparing for more holiday feastings, I want to try and eat healthier. Instead of insipid salads for the next two weeks I decided on a better way to get some veggies into my daily routine. I'm switching to a mostly Asian diet. Traditional Asian food I grew up on consist mainly of vegetables, small amounts of protein, and rice. Many of the dishes are healthy. After a peek in the cupboards, I realized I really needed to go the Asian Market. Here are the staples I picked up:

Now my kitchen is stocked and I'm ready to cook some great Asian meals.
