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.
Nut Butters
Nut butters like peanut or almond butter are high in protein and vitamins and contain healthier unsaturated fats. They keep for months opened or years if unopened. Try to avoid butters with too much added salt and sugar. If you don’t like peanut butter, it may be worth trying another nut butter to see if the taste or texture better suits your taste buds.
