if they're like me, a fucking mess

But also

  • various canned beans (always including garbanzos)
  • rice
  • dried beans
  • NOOCH
  • lots of spices, including for favorite flavor. staples like garlic powder, paprika, red pepper flakes, onion powder, cinnamon.
  • pasta
  • canola oil for general purpose, olive for fancy shit
  • maple syrup
  • various general baking ingredients - flour, baking soda + powder etc
  • arrowroot, for baking (i like it a lot better than egg replacer)
  • cereal
  • peanut butter for a god tier snack
  • oats
  • an extra of my favorite tamari/soy sauce, salsa, and hot sauce

Then i just stock the fridge with Oatly barista, Ripple milk, violife cheeze, and prepped marinated + cubed tofu for a grabbable snack.

In the freezer i stock extra tofu, beyond spicy breakfast sausages and daiya pizzas which we go mostly keep around for low-spoon days. Usually it's a pizza + 2 boxes of sausages a week, so it's not terribly $$.

Anyway, i'm curious what kind of pantry staples do ya'll keep and if they vary much from mine

    Mine are super similar, but I use flax seed as an egg replacer, for milk I'm a soy boy, and my dried legume of choice is lentils because I don't have to remember to soak them. Also canned tomatoes and tomato paste, which I use a lot. In the freezer I like to have Gardein's beefless ground for chili or pasta, and some bags of frozen vegetables for a quick stir fry.

        Yeah flax seed is great! I also like to put it in my oatmeal for a nutty flavor. I'm pretty boring, I mainly get green lentils. I've also used red lentils, but I find they're less versatile than green since they get soft so quickly
