20 Great Cheap Meals Created from 10 Pantry Staples

Here at Tip Hero, we are big fans of making meals out of pantry staples. In one of Cheap Healthy Good’s most popular posts, they took on a challenge posed to them by their readers: how many cheap, healthy dishes be created from the things that are usually found lying around the house (and just those items)?

Here are the 10 pantry staples used:

  • Beans (black, red, pinto, garbanzo)
  • Canned Tomatoes (diced, crushed, whole, paste)
  • Dried Herbs and Spices
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Garlic
  • Onions (yellow, red)
  • Pasta (thin spaghetti, rotini, elbows)
  • Rice (brown, white, couscous)
  • Stock (chicken, veggie, beef)
  • Vinegar (balsamic, white, red wine, cider)
