STOCKING YOUR KITCHEN

[Kate]

If you have an inventory of food you can make a meal. Meal prep is HARD, I’m not sure why we don’t talk about that more – but it is. I make it as easy as possible on myself by having a kitchen full of ingredients I can mix and match to make different meals.

flour

sugar

baking powder

baking soda

pasta

rice

old fashioned oats

beans – canned or dry, but I prefer canned because it’s easier.

Rao’s pasta sauce

tuna packed In water

nuts

cereals

Kodiak cake mix

vinegar – white, red, apple cider, champagne are my go-to’s

mustard – dijon, and yellow

ketchup

extra virgin olive oil

Freezer

variety of frozen vegetables

variety of frozen fruits

meat – chicken breast, ground beef, turkey, fish, bacon
