You've got a lot of staples in your home! Since it is just me and my fiance, I don't keep a lot of food at one time, but always have the staples I listed above. I was thinking of making sweet potatoes a regular staple, but do not like to eat them plain. How do you incorporate them into your diet?
I eat them plain or I roast them in olive oil. I also melt marshmallows on one sometimes!
I typically slice my sweet potatoes into mini wedges. I use a sprinkle of Cinnamon, Paprika, pepper in olive oil.0 -

- White potatoes. Everybody bangs on about sweet potatoes, but a good baked potato will fill you up like nothing else
- Salsa/canned tomatoes. I like salsa in place of salad dressing, and I'm not above dumping a can of Rotel in with cooked broccoli, kale, or anything else I'm not quite into eating on itself.
- Tea! Good for when you're bored-hungry
- Garbanzo beans for salads
- Green beans. They've always been my favorite veggie, even before I knew they were "cheap"
- Oatmeal and eggs. I don't eat breakfast, but I do love breakfast food.
- Fruits and veggies on sale/in season
- There's always some little treat that I parcel out to myself in little portions. Right now, Snicker's minis.
