10 boxes in the pantry at least, plus about 15 or so in the basement pantry Chat Icon

We also have way too much rice, cereal, breadcrumbs, canned tomatoes, cookies and crackers in the pantry Chat Icon

Re: How many pounds of pasta do you have in your pantry?

Maybe 3 or 4. My mom used to have a LOT. I'm dieting and don't cook much pasta PLUS since I'm a vegetarian, many of the lean cuisines I eat tend to be pasta, so I'm in no hurry to cook more

I thin I have 2 or 3 half full boxes of different ypes. We only buy what we need--no room for storage and we cook for 2, sometimes we only use a half of a box.

Our "pantry", is one double cabinet with 2 shelves shelf, so we have to be selective.

We usually have 1-3 boxes of ceral, 2-3 boxes of pasta, 1 box of granola bars,1 bag of pretzles or nuts, arborio rice, cous cous, panko, salt, baking staples, tuna packets,and right now, candy canes. Chat Icon

Re: How many pounds of pasta do you have in your pantry?

usually no more than 4 or 5. DH is not a huge pasta fan so we don't make it too often. Well, he is more of a ravioli or fresh pasta fan.

Re: How many pounds of pasta do you have in your pantry?

No more than 2 lbs (two boxes), ever

Other than that. I have:
flour, salt, sugar, baking soda, baking powder.
Two cans of tuna
Two cans of soup.
Two cans of corn
Bread crumbs
Pasta sauce, bouillon, cooking wine.
Wheat Thins
Pirates’ Booty
Crackers
Box of Shake n Bake
Box of mash potatoes
Bag of Marshmallows
Rice! (had to add that nearly forgot!)

That’s it really. The rest of the space is filled with:
Parchment paper roll
Foil roll
Cling wrap roll
Snack, Quart, sandwich and gallon zip lock bag boxes


We use one set of cabinets in our kitchen as our ‘pantry’.
Our ‘pantry’ is in a space with the water heater and the washer/dryer which also includes the kitty liter boxes. Something about my food being stored above cat poo just doesn’t sit well with me, so I never store anything in there foodwise.

We generally cook fresh. So no need for stuff in the pantry. I do have a heck of a spice rack tho! Haha. I wanna try again this year to grow a herb garden haha Yeah says Mrs Brown Thumb!

I try to keep at least 5 boxes in the house. I buy them on sale.

Also, grits is a hot commodity in my house. DH loves for me to make them for breakfast on the weekend so I try to have at least 3 cans of that.

Us too. We don't stock up due to lack of room. DH and I are both Italian go figure, we only have 2 or 3 boxes of pasta at any time. Its actually bags, we only eat the Anna brand.

When they are on sale (10 for 10), I buy 10 boxes. So we usually have between 2 and 12 in the pantry.

Re: How many pounds of pasta do you have in your pantry?

Right now I have 3 boxes. They were on sale this week for cheap so I bought a couple to make some cheap meals in the coming weeks.

I also have a package of egg noodles because they are a favorite of both my kids.
