Pantry Stocking Haul: 3/3/21

I'm not buying many groceries right now but I am trying to add to my long term pantry a little each week. I hit up Dollar Tree again this week and here's what I purchased ...


Everything in this picture came from the Dollar Tree except the Blue Diamond almond flour, that came from Sam's Club.

Pink Himalayan Salt

Snack Bags

Jasmine Rice

Yellow Rice (I'll throw in some mixed vegetables for a delicious side dish)

Lintels (will vacuum seal for long term storage)

Aluminum Foil Sheets (these are handy for so many things)

Great Northern Beans  (will vacuum seal for long term storage)

Hungry Jack Potatoes (each of these bags make enough to serve 8)

Red Kidney Beans (will vacuum seal for long term storage)

The most expensive item was the almond flour, everything else was $1.  I want you to see that you can build a well-stocked pantry without shopping in bulk or spending huge amounts of money.  It will take longer, but it's possible and something is better than nothing when hard times come calling!

A Working Pantry

She looketh well to the ways of her household … Proverbs 31:27

My pantry is intentional, purposeful, simple, practical, frugal and what works for my family.  It’s the food items and household supplies that keep my household running smoothly ready and available when they are needed.  It’s my contribution to our family’s economy and my work-from-home ‘job.'

  1. We have a grocery store going out of business and everything is 40 percent off so we had a fun treasure hunt for items. We bought mainly what never goes on sale and filled some gaps with items that I hate plunking down full price for. I like the idea of adding veggies to yellow rice. We have a huge bulk jug from Sam's and every time i make it I feel like it needs something.
