Vegetarian larder - what to buy

You are a vegetarian, you are trying to save some money, as good food is expensive. Not at all. What you really need to buy in bulk quantities to be always prepared? I will tell you now.

1.Wholemeal flour, buckwheat and white flour if you still use.
2. Rice - basmati or thay rice, big 25 or 50 kg bag.
3. Pasta - large quantity of durum wheat, durum semolina. You got the idea!
4. Pulses - lentil, beans, chickpeas, haduki beans.
5. Oil. Sunflower, rapeseed, groundnut for cooking, olive oil for salad. Sesame, walnut and hazelnut for food, to keep this in the fridge. The others are fine outside.
6. Cheese: Cheddar, Parmesan, Gruyere and anything else that you like.
7. Dairy and non dairy - creme fraiche, soy milk, tofu, mycoprotein products.
8. Nuts - peanuts (cheapest ones), almond, walnut, hazelnut, pistachio.
9. Herbs - fresh or dried. Parsley, coriander, dill, basil, mint.
10. Spices - chilli, nutmeg, cinnamon, cardamon, ginger.

You can cook at least 30 meals only with what we have on this list. Good luck.
