Kitchen Staples

Cooking staples are important, hence why they're called staples! 

In our house, we have certain things that need to be kept on hand b/c we use them often or we enjoy them.  However, I think some of these items will or should be staples in EVERY ONE'S kitchen. 

Here's our list:

- Milk
- Bread (at least 2 loaves at all times)
- Eggs
- Sour Cream
- Cream Cheese
- Butter
- Shredded Cheese
- Frozen Veggies (we usually have broccoli, peas, and corn)
- Chicken Breasts
- Ground Beef
- Frozen Waffles (perfect for breakfast/lunch/dinner in a pinch!)
- Tomato Paste
- Chiplote Peppers in Adobo Sauce

- Cream Soups (Mushroom/Chicken/Celery)
- Salsa
