Why I Made This

Cooking at home shouldn't feel overwhelming

I created this checklist because stocking a healthy kitchen can feel complicated—especially when you're trying to avoid certain ingredients but aren't sure what to buy instead.

This isn't about perfection. It's about having a starting point. When your kitchen is stocked with quality staples, cooking becomes faster, simpler, and more nourishing by default.

These are the same staples I keep in my own kitchen. I hope they help you feel more confident the next time you're at the grocery store.
