8 Staples For Easy Meals ...

I must admit to being a pretty lazy cook, and one who never plans my meals. So I like to keep a stock of items that I can use to throw together a quick and easy meal. If you’re like me – or if you sometimes can’t be bothered to spend a long time cooking after working all day, then try keeping some of the following ingredients in your kitchen.

1. Chickpeas (Garbanzos)

As a vegetarian, I use a lot of chickpeas, but you don’t have to be veggie to make use of them. Keep a few jars of ready-cooked chickpeas, and you have the basis of lots of easy meals. I like to use them for stews, or making falafel, but you can also whizz up hummus in no time for a quick snack.

    It’s so easy….Sometimes I just drop some into my clear chicken or veggie broth, and it becomes dinner.
