What do you crave that you have to always have on hand to snack on or cook?
I'm always thinking how I can switch things up, so I try and get things that intermingle.
I always buy in twos so I don't run out and I can replace things when I'm on the last one.
So aside from milk, bread (oat and potato) and eggs:
Nuts for snacking, leaning toward macadamias when I can find them. Almonds and pecans are close runners-up.
Bacon, because life without it is just not living.
Chicken of some sort (skin on, bone in) to eat roasted or make into salad.
Spicy sausage because sometimes you want your food to bite back.
Dried pasta when I can't get fresh, fresh garlic, cream and parmesan cheese to make a sauce.
Quiche because I refuse to blow up the kitchen every day making it myself.
Potatoes (red), onions (Maui) and bell peppers (red, orange and yellow) simply because I'm addicted.
Last, but not least: Instant pancake mix (buttermilk). The one that says "complete". The directions say "just add water" but I was never one to be painted into a corner. And the reason I like the complete is that you don't have to use water. I've used chocolate milk and chips to make amazing chocolate pancakes. Pureed fruit works well too, if you use applesauce you don't even have to puree the fruit yourself (think bananas or quince). Cinnamon and sugar round out that treat. No syrup necessary.
With all of that on hand, I can make my stomach happy for at least ten days to two weeks.
