very healthy snacks

Help me create a healthy shopping list please?

For a week's worth of groceries/drinks/snacks.
My family and I don't eat very healthy and I want to change that. I want to cook real, healthy meals instead of hamburger helper. Eat healthy snacks instead of cookies and ice cream. Drink no more soda.
Got any healthy, but fairly easy dinner recipes? Also, any suggestions for my shopping list?
Thanks!

hmm..i really dont eat healthily either but look at labels. things with low carbohydrates and low sodium are healthy
