Lentils

Like dried beans, lentils are a great shelf-stable food to stock up on in large quantities. High in protein and fiber, lentils come in several varieties and will last up to a year in your pantry when stored properly. They're wonderfully versatile and can be thrown into soups, stews, curries, salads, veggie burgers and more. What's more, buying lentils in bulk cuts down on the materials used for packing and is significantly cheaper than buying in store-bought quantities.
