10 Foods You Need to Power Up Your Pantry
The 10 essential foods to keep stocked on your shelves this winter.

Threats of a monster snowstorm or hurricane rightly send us running to the store to stock up, often to find that everything’s been bought. While milk, eggs and bread tend to be the go-to goods, these aren’t enough to keep your family going. Here are some items that will literally keep for years, so you can make sure you don’t enter the next storm unprepared.
Canned Fish
Oily fishes are packed with healthy omega-3s and are also a great source of protein for a wide variety of dishes. Tuna, salmon and sardines are all good and have a long shelf life. Go for these over dried meats like beef jerky that’s packed with salt, fat and preservatives without a lot of benefit.
