What I Keep In My Pantry and Why

A WELL STOCKED PANTRY IS AN IMPORTANT THING TO HAVE


        

These are some pictures of my pantries.  Yes I said pantries.  I actually have 3 but the 3rd one isn't important right now.

Some of you may think that is excessive, but I have a large family and I have friends eat over pretty often so I need to have a large amount of stock on hand.

When you go to the grocery store every few days you tend to buy more than you need.  Be honest with yourself.  Do you always just grab that gallon of milk and loaf of bread? Or, do you grab a candy bar and a pop to?  Or, maybe something else you didn't plan on?  

We all do it, so don't feel bad.  But, if you are trying to stick to a strict budget then you have to stop going to the store so much.

These are some of the basics that I keep in my stocked pantry that I recommend everyone to have.  Adjust for diet and taste of course!!

  • Flour
  • Sugar
  • Salt
  • Shortening
  • Yeast
  • Baking Soda
  • Rice
  • Beans
  • Canned Vegetables
  • Bullion
  • Barley
  • Home Canned Meat
  • Jelly
  • Peanut Butter
  • Honey
  • Pancake mix
  • Canned Soup
  • Ramen
  • Pasta
  • Tomatoes
  • Tomato Sauce/Paste
  • Oatmeal
This is a very basic pantry list, but with these few items you can make an endless variety of meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
When times are tough and there are a few days left until payday, you can make casseroles and soups, homemade tortillas and bread, and many other things from a pantry like this.
