Meal prepping is SO MUCH easier if you keep your pantry stocked with the basics.
Of course, the “basics” vary according to your own tastes and budget, but here are a few staples to consider keeping on hand:
* Whole grains: brown rice, quinoa, oats, organic polenta
* Beans: canned or dried lentils, as well as black, garbanzo, & pinto beans
* Fruits & Vegetables: canned tomatoes and frozen fruits & veggies are great choices in a pinch
* Broth: low-sodium bone, chicken, or veggie broth
* Oils: extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, and/or coconut oil
* Favorite sauces/spices: these can offer variety to your meals
