Yummy Healthy Food Pantry List

The easiest way to cook YUMMY HEALTHY FOODS is to have a well-stocked pantry.  Here are items that I always have in my kitchen.  When I run out of any of them, I add them to my weekly grocery list.  Every week I purchase fresh vegetables.  I recommend buying at least four or five vegetables each week.
