Our Top 10 Refillable Pantry Staples
We recommend starting with the staples you use most and build from there based on your cooking habits.
-
Basmati Brown Rice: Has a slightly nutty flavour, firm texture, and holds its shape well making it ideal for a wide range of dishes. Best used in curries, stir-fries, and salads. It freezes well, making it perfect for batch cooking.
-
Rolled Oats: A breakfast hero that also works in baking, burgers, and more. Use for overnight oats, homemade muesli, or to bulk out veggie patties.
-
Brown Lentils: An easy to cook plant protein perfect for soups, salads, stews and stretching out meat dishes.
-
White Quinoa: Great in salads, nourish bowls and as a porridge alternative. More subtle in flavour than red or black quinoa, making it easy to pair with both savoury and sweet dishes.
-
White Spelt Flour: Ideal for baking, it’s a more nutritious alternative to all-purpose white flour.
- Nuts & Seeds: To keep costs down, start with just one or two versatile options like almonds or sunflower seeds, then swap for alternatives next time you refill. High in healthy fats, both make a great snack, and are perfect addition to baking.
-
Dates: Naturally sweet, and incredibly versatile, with a long shelf-life making them perfect for buying in bulk. Enjoy them as a snack, a natural sweetener in smoothies, baking or add to savoury dishes like salads.
-
Apple Cider Vinegar: is one of the most versatile and functional pantry staples you can keep on hand. Whether for cooking, gut health, or natural cleaning, its benefits stretch far beyond salad dressings.
-
Extra Virgin Olive Oil: High in antioxidants, rich in healthy fats it’s perfect for roasting, dressing, and sautéing.
- Hulled Tahini: Made from ground hulled sesame seeds, it’s great for both savoury and sweet dishes. A key ingredient for homemade hummus, dressings, sauces and as a binder in baking.
Rotate for Variety & Nutrition
Instead of always reaching for the same grain or legume each time you refill, try rotating your staples. This keeps meals interesting and gives your body a broader range of nutrients.
For example:
-
Swap brown rice for millet to vary your fibre, protein, and mineral intake.
- Alternate between red lentils, French green lentils, and black lentils to get different types of plant-based protein.
- Use oats some weeks, and buckwheat the next to bring variety to your breakfasts and baking.
