What's in your Pantry?
I never really had a pantry until we moved to our new home two years ago.
Ever since then I’ve been enjoying stocking it with different healthy (and not so much) goodies. It also makes a perfect hiding place from one tiny messy monster, a.k.a. my almost 2-year-old toddler 😊
I think your pantry is worth a discussion because, if you’re like me, that closet is a #1 destination for a hungry tummy. Whatever is in there can make all the difference in our health and fitness goals. That’s why I want to share my staples with you and encourage you to share yours with me in the comments.
Let’s start, shall we?
