Just curious

What are some essentials (for you) that you always buy when doing grocery? For me, besides the normal salt, pepper, I always keep

  • yogurt, because you can use it in so many ways,
  • tomatoes, cuz it’s just yummy,
  • lemon juice because the uses of it are so versatile
  • potatoes because when you’re out of idea you can just make fries =/
  • onions because you never know when you want to make salan
  • ranch dressing and ketchup.

i also keep a can of chick peas and a bag of boondi, because i know 2 really quick and easy recipes to make out of these ingredients :smiley:
