This is my everyday hero. I drizzle it over roasted veggies, use it for light sautéing, and even dip bread into it when I want a simple, comforting meal.
Extra-virgin Olive Oil
A small pinch goes a long way. I keep it within arm’s reach while cooking—it instantly elevates even the simplest dishes.
Himalayan Pink Salt
Freshly ground pepper changes everything. I use it at the very end of cooking for that warm, aromatic kick.
McCormick Black Peppercorn Grinder, 2.5 oz
Rice is my reliable base. On busy days, it becomes a quick bowl with veggies; on slow days, it’s comfort food.
Organic Long Grain White Rice
When I want something nourishing but low-effort, lentils are my go-to. One pot, simple spices, done
Dried Lentils
I always keep a few cans stocked. They turn into hummus, salads, or crispy snacks depending on my mood.
Eden Organic Garbanzo Beans, 15 oz Can (12-Pack)
Breakfast feels calmer when oats are in the pantry. Overnight oats on busy mornings, warm bowls on quiet ones.
Rolled Oats
I use it to sweeten tea, drizzle over oats, or soothe my throat—one jar, so many small comforts.
Raw Honey
This is my quick energy fix. Spread on toast, mixed into sauces, or eaten straight from the spoon (no shame)
Natural Peanut Butter No Sugar
Whenever I feel like baking something simple, I’m glad this is already there—no overthinking, just basics
All-purpose Flour
On nights when I don’t want to think, pasta saves the day. Olive oil, salt, and done
Baking Powder
A splash instantly adds depth. I use it sparingly to keep flavors balanced and intentional.
Soy Sauce Low Sodium
From salad dressings to quick pickles, this adds brightness and keeps meals from feeling flat
Apple Cider Vinegar
At the end of the day, a cup of herbal tea feels like a reset—no caffeine, just calm
