What's In My Fridge & Pantry

items So, about 6-7 years ago I got very “crunchy” and started label reading and really being mindful of every bite I was putting into my body. Before that I ate what I wanted, when I wanted, I loved me some of the worst junk food out there. Now, years lat...
We are also Jewish, and I consider our diet Kosher Style. We don't mix meat and milk (again, I am not perfect, I *usually* don't mix them) and we look for hechsher on our our food packaging, but when we can't find them, we label read and will go by i...

This is a staple - I drink a cup daily. Hands down, best coffee on earth. Yes, I have tried plenty, from plenty of different regions. This is my favorite.
Elite Instant Pure Coffee, 7oz Tin
This is kinda necessary to make that cup of coffee perfect.
Coffee-Mate Natural Bliss, 56 oz.
Basically a daily food. Either as part of breakfast, lunch or dinner or as ingredient in something that we're cooking.
Wellsley Farms Extra Large Cage Free White Eggs, 36 ct.
This is one of the few processed food we eat on a regular basis. Easy to microwave and a good amount of protein. I typically eat a few with eggs in the morning.
Jones All Natural Golden Brown Turkey Sausage Links, 28 oz.
This is my 5 year old's favorite breakfast food. Nope, you didn't misread that, I'm being serious. Kids are weird. This is full of sodium, but also, veggies, so we compromise.
Mezzetta Italian Mix Giardiniera Mild, 32 fl oz Jar
We love most of BJ's muffin flavors, but I think this is my favorite.
Wellsley Farms Corn Muffins, 6 ct./6 oz.
You can't eat a cornbread muffin without some butter, I mean you could, but you don't want to, lol.
Land O'Lakes Butter with Canola Oil Spread Tub, 2 pk./15 oz.
I personally prefer butter made from milk and cream, but this is the best substitute we've found for when we are trying to make something non-dairy.
Country Crock Dairy Free Plant Butter with Olive Oil, 30 oz.
This is also a must have. I don't eat pickles daily, but I could. I can't eat a sandwich or a burger or without them. Is a burger a sandwich, am I being redundant? 🤔
Great Value Hamburger Dill Chip Pickles, 32 fl oz
My new favorite salad is sub salad. This is a must have ingredient in that.
Great Value Chopped Black Olives, 4.25 oz
There are probably about 10,000 mayo options. This is the best. You're welcome.
Hellmann's Olive Oil Mayonnaise Dressing Condiments, 30 fl oz Jar
Best wing sauce sauce. I still cut it with some plant butter when I make it cuz I get heartburn and my little one loves the flavor, but not the spicy-ness. This is not spicy enough for my older kiddo.
Sweet Baby Ray's Mild Buffalo Wing Sauce 16 fl oz
This sauce also has a very tasty flavor profile, but it much spicier than the other one we get. This is what my older kiddo prefers and I just cut it with a lot more plant butter when I eat it.
Frank's RedHot Garlic Buffalo Wings Sauce 12oz
You need something to drown in that hot sauce, these are the wings we use.
Perdue, No Antibiotics Ever, Fresh Chicken Wings Value Pack, 3.5.3-5.4 lb. Tray
It's the bread my kids prefer, they are the sandwich eaters.
Freihofer Italian Bread, 2 pk.
This is my little's favorite bread topping. I know, it's full of sugar. Did you know, parenting is hard af.
Nutella Hazelnut Spread with Cocoa for Breakfast, 2 pk./26.5 oz.
This is another area where we should probably be making a better choice, but what do they say? Fed is best. My kids can't wait for me to spend 6 years learning how to crush my own nuts. This keeps them fed in the meantime.
Jif Creamy Peanut Butter, 40-Ounce Jar
More carbs, cuz we eat too many carbs. May I recommend microwaving them for a few seconds?
Wellsley Farms Large Butter Croissant, 12 ct.
We get most of our Challah from this brand, these rolls or the loaves. My favorite bread to dip in butter. Also compliments our Friday night dinners perfectly.
Laromme Premium Egg Challah Rolls, 12 ct./2.16 oz.
Another one of those treats. The hubbs and little love these.
Oui by Yoplait Strawberry and Peach Yogurt, 8 pk./5 oz.
We are cheese fiends. This stuff is a favorite and a staple. Chop it up with some tomatoes. Add sub dressing, malt vinegar, salt and pepper. Again, you're welcome.
BelGioioso Fresh Sliced Mozzarella Cheese, 4 pk./8 oz.
These are popular in our house, for tomato and cheese salad or slicing up for a sandwich topper. They go in the regular salads too.
Roma Tomatoes, 3 lbs.
Another salad staple. We eat salads at least once a week, sometimes every night in a week.
Wellsley Farms English Seedless Cucumbers, 2 ct.
This is my favorite lettuce blend, but proceed with caution, it does contain cilantro, and my kids won't eat it.
Wellsley Farms Organic Herb Mix, 5 oz.
This lettuce blend is a little more popular with the rest of those people I live with.
Wellsley Farms Organic Spring Mix, 16 oz.
I love avocados, but we don't keep them in the house all the time. These are a treat food for some reason.
Wellsley Farms Hass Avocados, 5 ct.
I love these as a snack and in salads.
Wellsley Farms Mixed Peppers, 4 ct.
These are mostly snack tomatoes. They also work well in salads, but they don't work for sandwiches.
Wild Wonders Gourmet Medley Tomatoes, 1.5 lbs.
snack cheese
Cabot Creamery Seriously Sharp Snack Pack Cheddar Cheese, 24 ct./0.75 oz.
more snack cheese
Arla Havarti & Gouda Snack Cheese, 24 ct.
speaking of cheese - my 5 year old's favorite dinner. This one makes sense though, lol.
Annie's Homegrown Organic Macaroni and Cheese Variety Pack, 12 ct./6 oz.
this is cheese for folding in - iykyk - another staple
Wellsley Farms Mexican Shreds 2 ct./24 oz.
this is cheese for folding in - iykyk - another staple
Wellsley Farms Mozzarella Shreds, 2 ct./24 oz.
this is cheese for melty cheese sandwiches and cheese plates
Wellsley Farms Organic Goat Cheese, 11 oz.
not quite healthy, but better than Doritos
Lays Classic & Lays Wavy Potato Chips, Pick n' Pack
another "fast food" staple. fast and easy dinner when everyone is exhausted
Bumble Bee Solid White Albacore Tuna in Water, 8 pk./5 oz.
great cheese plate crackers
Ritz Original Crackers, 18 pk.
perfect chips - I love these so much - they MUST be the garlic flavor! great with cheese plates and tuna or just by themselves out of the bag.
New York Style Roasted Garlic Bagel Crisps, Bagel Chips, 6 oz Bag
for bagels and lox
Wellsley Farms Smoked Sockeye Salmon, 8 oz.
it has to be whipped
Great Value Original Whipped Cream Cheese Spread, 8 oz Cup
hands down, the most disappointing part of moving from South Florida to Upstate NY was learning the hard way that NY style bagels (and pizza) mean New York CITY and not the whole state. I can't find a good bagel where I live, but this comes close on ...
Fresh Baked, NYC-Inspired Bagels in Saratoga, Albany & Clifton Park
these can't be on my crunchy list, no way - but they are Kosher gummy bears that we can buy locally, so we kinda ignore the ingredient list on this one
Haribo Goldbears Gummi Candy, 5.29oz
you would think a precooked chicken would fall on that easy dinners list. although we don't need to cook this, we do typically chop it up for chicken salad. not a fast dinner because it takes me an hour to chop up. but just chopping and then tossing ...
Wellsley Farms Hot Rotisserie Chicken, 3 lbs.
we eat a lot of these - not like apples, all chopped up in salads and cooked in just about everything savory
Wellsley Farms Yellow Onions, 3 lbs.
basically the only non-dairy croutons we can find. we keep these in stock for salads
