Dry Food
When you have rice, pasta, lentils, and quinoa in your pantry, you can mix and match ingredients and be creative with your meals while saving money at the same time. These dry foods are typically inexpensive and nutritious – what more could you want?
Frozen Veggies
Though you won’t keep them in your pantry per se, froze vegetables are something you should always have on hand. Since they can be stored for a long time, don’t be afraid to pick them up in bulk when on sale. Even better, you can freeze your own vegetables when they are in season and use them all year long.
