Re: building a healthy pantry

Most important thing is variety. Get five 1/2-cup servings of veggies a day, however you like them. Soups are a good way to knock out two or three in one meal.

Every meal should have a source of protein (15-20 grams), a reasonable amount of fat, and at least one vegetable/fruit. Healthy fats include nuts/seeds, fish, avocados, etc. Dairy fats aren't that bad, as long as it's not too much, and red meats are the unhealthy ones. Fat's important, as it helps you absorb the vitamins from foods, just don't overdo it.

Fiber is better than starch, which is better than sugar. Choose carbs that are higher in fiber: they help you feel more sated after eating, and contribute to health in a lot of ways. Vegetables are better than fruits, because they don't have as much sugar, but fruits aren't bad at all. Fruit juice is not fruit; it's liquid candy.

For actual specifics, I like nut butters with an apple for a quick snack. Or an ounce of cheese with an apple. Or a frozen vegetable mix. For meals, my favorite is soups. Some split peas, ham, broth and a crock pot lets me have a healthy, tasty lunch every day for a week.
