A deep pantry is your safety net – ready to sustain you through tough times, whether it’s a job loss, price surge, or something bigger. We’ll guide you step-by-step to stock what you need without stress or waste.

What to Stock

Core Categories:

Dry Goods

Long lasting and versatile, dry goods are the backbone of any deep pantry. Stock up on essentials like rice, beans, oats, flour, and pasta to build the foundation for countless meals.

Packaged Meals & Sides

Quick, easy, and ready when you need them, packaged meals and sides like pasta mixes, instant potatoes, rice dishes, and shelf-stable entrees help save time and effort in a pinch.

Canned Goods

Shelf-stable and easy to store, canned goods provide essential nutrition when fresh options aren’t available. Include proteins like tuna and chicken, vegetables, fruits, and hearty soups or stews.

Herbs, Spices, & Seasonings

Add life to simple meals with a variety of herbs, spices, and seasonings. Stock salt, pepper, garlic powder, dried herbs, bouillon cubes, and specialty blends to elevate your meals.

Bottles & Jars

Think beyond the can with pantry staples that come in bottles and jars. Stock cooking oils, vinegars, jams, nut butters, honey, pickles, and condiments to add flavor and variety to your meals.

Don't forget your Beverages

Stay hydrated and prepared with a mix of beverages. Include water storage, shelf-stable milk or alternatives, coffee, tea, powdered drink mixes, and juices for nutrition and comfort.
