Prepper Pantry Basics

There are a few items that are critical to a well-stocked prepper pantry. Stockpiling these items allows us to enjoy many of the basic recipes that we eat every day.

What should I store in my survival long term food storage supply?

• Grains: wheat, Kamut, white rice, corn, rolled oats, steel-cut oats, pasta, and cocoa powder
• Legumes: black beans, pinto beans, white beans, split peas, and lentils
• Dehydrated Vegetables: onions, carrots, peppers, celery, and potato flakes
• Seeds: flax seeds, chia seeds, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and alfalfa seeds
• Sweeteners: honey, maple syrup, granulated sugar, and brown sugar
• Dairy: non-fat powdered milk, cheese (powdered, canned, freeze-dried), evaporated milk, and dried eggs
• Cooking basics: baking soda, baking powder, cream of tartar, corn starch, iodized salt, pink Himalayan salt, canning salt, vinegar, lemon juice, soy sauce, and yeast
• Spices: beef and chicken bouillon, chili powder, cumin, garlic (salt, granulated, and powder), onion powder, seasoned salt, creole seasoning, black pepper, lemon pepper, crushed red pepper, cayenne pepper, turmeric, oregano, basil, thyme, bay leaves, paprika, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger and allspice
• Fats: Coconut oil, olive oil, vegetable oil, peanut butter, and canned butter

Your list will likely be a little bit different than ours. There are some things that would make sense to store such as vegetable shortening due to the long shelf life. I have stored it in the past but I never use it. I decided to replace it with coconut oil because that is our favorite.
