When I lived in Sicily, I went to the “supermercato” only once a month. I would stock up on dry goods to provide the foundation for delicious meals for weeks. Vegetables and fruit were obtained by frequent visits to the local vendors, or hand-picked from the gardens where I lived. These days, I go to the grocery store way more often, but I still maintain a pantry full of delicious and healthy ingredients that can be the building blocks of quick and easy, satisfying meals and tasty snacks.
