Well stocked pantry |
A few years ago I shared the basic pantry staples I had
stockpiled here and also
here. I have made many a nourishing meal with the items from my Key West pantry. Soon, however, I will have much less shelf space as I relocate once again. So, I thought I would narrow down my essential preps to a nutritional top 5 list.

Variety of long lasting carbs |
I have had to give all the wheat I had stockpiled to Miss Molly's chickens; too many in the family have developed a gluten intolerance; but, there are so many other varieties to choose.
