DFV Must Have Ingredients

My husband raised a valid point.  There are certain things that are always available in my kitchen so that I can start creating whenever I get the bug so I have to decided to create a list.  Before you read this list I would like to take a moment to explain a few things.  I love the idea of fresh vegetables and taking dried beans and preparing them myself but it is not always practical with my life style.  Being a wife, mom, working 50 hours a week and trying to have a life make it much for convenient to keep canned beans and frozen vegetables on hand.  Please don’t let that sway you from any of the recipes, they will taste even better with fresher ingredients.

Here’s the list which I will add to as I remember:

Flour
vegan butter substitute
Nutritional yeast
Egg Replacers: Ener-g egg replacer, applesauce, chia seeds, flax meal
Cashew Cream
Himalayan Pink salt
Oils- olive & sunflower
