Critical food list

What is on your list of critial foods that you need to have stocked and on hand at all times so that you DON'T eat off the plan?

Mine are:

cuties

apples

bananas

yogurt

wheat pretzels

string cheese

quaker rice snacks (cheddar)

raw almonds

I also always keep a few cans of soup at work for those times when I forget my lunch or dont have time to leave.

    Good idea, currently I have the following:

    Cottage Cheese
    Various Quorn products; Suasages, Mince, Fillets etc..
    A basket of various fruits!
    MIxure of vegetables for vegetable soup
    Tap water - this stuff works wonders to quench hunger

    turnips for turnip fries

    Turnip fries? I'm guessing you'd make these the same as potato or sweet potato fries?

    Mine varies depending on what is on sale... but typically I like to keep on hand

    Fruit that is in season (right now, apples and those Cutie tangerines)
    Nuts
    Peanut Butter
    Lowfat Cheese
    Skim milk
    Chicken breast
    Frozen vegetables (corn and green beans, stirfry mix)
    Fresh vegetables (carrots, onions, celery and whatever else I need to cook that week)
    Tap Water
    Eggs
    Oats
    Lots of spices

    And always having a menu plan going...
