What's in your pantry?


    Jonah claims that  I have a problem.  Apparently, I like to hoard food.

    I can't argue with the guy.  As soon as my mason jar of almonds is half full, I add it to my grocery 
    list and start wondering when I can get myself to the health food store.  

    I guess I just like to be prepared.  As you can see, our pantry is generally well-stocked.  
    Here's a short list of my must haves…

    raw nuts of all kinds (almonds, cashews, pecans, walnuts, pistachios)
    raw seeds of all kinds (pepitas, sunflower, hemp, chia, sesame, black sesame, flax)
    dried, unsulfured fruit (apricots, medjhol dates, Thompson's raisins, cranberries, goji berries, currants,  
    figs)
    varieties of rice (brown basmati, red, wild, japonica, jasmine, brown rice pasta in many shapes)
    grains (red, black and white quinoa, buckwheat groats, millet, steel cut oats, rolled oats, pearl barley, 
    orzo)
    legumes (split peas, lentils, adzuki beans)
    pickles and preserves of all kinds 
    flour of many varieties (Bob's Red Mill's gluten-free mix, spelt, rice, whole wheat and white all-
    purpose)
    coconut in all forms:  oil, desiccated, flakes, flour, palm sugar, milk, cream
    good quality cacao powder and nibs

   This is just what's in the mason jars…don't even get me started on spices...

   Please share with us, what's in your pantry?
