A quick tip for you!
Carrots last long, but to make them last even longer I store them in a tupperware/jar full of water. Last time I bought a big batch of carrots was a month ago and I have just eaten the last one today. And it was as fresh and crunchy as if it wash just bought!!!!

2. leafy greens (kale, letucce, arugula, spinach)
3. frozen fruits/veggies (berries, pineapple, peas, green beans)

Onions. There's hardly any dinners without onions in my kitchen :-)

So refreshing to see a minimalist who is not also vegan. Will subscribe 😊

nuts and seeds are a big staple for me!

I absolutely love your channel! I like that you're living mindful, simple and sustainable without going to extremes, like I blame myself for not being zero waste... Nobody is perfect and if we all make small changes we will change the world. I love you so much! 💓

[Simply.Mariela]

I buy almost all of these as well! A couple missing from this list is apples and avocados :)

Hi Meghan,
I would love if you could make a video explaining when to use the different types of oils and its different benefits, I get really confused with this topic.
Thanks

[stormythornton]

I literally have all of these ☺️ banana, oils, eggs & nuts/seeds are definitely at the top of the list.

[NhanySyam]

Your listvare great! Mine would also include oats, garlic, honey, and dried fruit 😁

[waasnoode]

Our staples are almost identical lol except instead of the spring mix I just like Spinich. I usually use that for eggs, salads, and smoothies 🤗

[darkain]

I really enjoyed your video I'm a bachelor just was on YouTube looking for stuff to go to the grocery store and buy was confused on what I wanted but now I got a staple of things

[mombee]

Garlic, onion and tomatoes always have on hand, good combo for all kinds of cooking

[boris]

My staple is porridge oats. Fruits over porridge is a favourite 😊

[katiethomas]

I love oatmeal on a cold day! And myself and my toddler and husband all ADORE peanut butter!

[hey_its_shayna]

I love adding hemp seeds and fresh berries into my oatmeal.

[Marlina]

Have most that you mentioned and also dates. They last for a good long time in the frig if you need them to. I like them in salads and smoothies.

[Palomargal]
