Although pantries might differ in every household, it would be handy to see an example pantry. You could use this as a starting point while trying to find out ways to equip yours, or you can take this listing to the store and start buying! It depends on you.
It might help to think about your pantry in regard to classifications such as morning meal items, snacks, and so on. Here is an example list:
Breakfast
Whole-grain warm cereals, such as oat meal or cream of wheat
Cold cereals to eat with soy milk, nut milk, or rice milk
Vegan-friendly pancake blends
Vegan cooked products such as muffins
Snacks
A selection of healthy and balanced snack items such as granola bars
Vegan snacks such as biscuits and cakes
Cookies and various other baked products
Miscellaneous Products
Nut milk, soy milk, rice milk, and tofu in special packaging to help it store in the pantry so they remain longer fresh
Canned soups, soup blends, and other boxed dish items such as vegan macaroni and cheese
Nuts and seeds such as almonds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, and pecans
Noodles – search for whole-wheat varieties
Products like pasta sauce, capers, pickles, ketchup, salad dressings, and so on
Grain Products
These are just a few examples listed below. Buy products that are in accordance with your choices:
Whole-wheat rice
Buckwheat flour
Wheat flour
Quinoa
Condiments
One vegetable oil to cook with
At least one type of flavourful oil such as cold-pressed olive oil or roasted sesame oil
Tamara and / or soy sauce
Vinegar – you can keep many kinds available, such as balsamic, rice wine, and red wine vinegar
Salt, pepper, and natural herbs and spices
Baking Products
Leavening agents such as yeast, baking powder, and baking soda
Vegan-friendly egg replacement
Different types of flours

This checklist is merely designed to offer you a starting point. It is virtually impossible to cover all items in a list because peoples’ food inclinations differ significantly. The approach most individuals like to take is purchasing products one by one as they need them.
Do not forget to consider the components, especially when you are purchasing packaged meals. As we have discovered, there are frequently hidden ingredients where you would expect them least that are not vegan-friendly.
