    Great list! I guess you taylor to likes but because I don't cook but usually 2-3 times per week I don't want to waste veggies so I buy a lot of frozen veggies (no sauce or butter just plain veggies): green beans, peas, corn, broccoli.zucchini and/or yellow squash spinach, collard greens etc
    Sometimes depending on time of year I get frozen fruit like peaches, blueberries and cherries.

    I love fresh lemons, limes and apples gotta have every time.

    Olive oil becasue I make my own vinaigrette. Onions and of course GARLIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I like to get a whole grain cereal every once in a while but in winter time I like oatmeal, millet, and or quinoa.

    I depending on mood buy canned beans all of them or dry. Canned tomatoes,beets and olives.
    My basic list give or take a two!
