So we are effected by this pandemic. One of the scariest things is people are hoarding food. Hundreds of pound of it to the point of people panic buying.  And the possibility that you local food pantry will be temporarily closed. I have literally been living out of the pantry that I have maintained since this pandemic and honestly it has given me one less thing to worry about
My post today is about the things that i have had in my pantry and regularly when it gets low.


Bag of flour
Yeast
Baking powder
Baking soda
Cream of tartar

Canned vegetables at least 3-6 different types
Canned fruit
Fermented foods
Pickles
Artichoke hearts
Beets
Saurkrout
Red cabbage
Mushrooms

Canned meat
Chicken
Fish
Beef
Pork
Ramen you can put veggies meat herbs etc.. To make it filling and not taste so salty

Fresh garlic
Rice
Sugar

Dried pea and beans
Spices
Soups
Powder beverages
Powdered creamer
Coffee
Medication
Pasta
Velveeta
Chips

These are the things we started on before we were able to actually go to the stores and before stores were able to keep up with the hoarders. Having these things made sure my family has been fed. It's the first time we've eaten completely out of the pantry. Making meals with recipes we found online. So they we're satisfying. Which oddly enough they don't look like much but with the recipes. We were able to make good nutritious food.
