Tins of tomato's - great to throw in stews, slow cooker, pasta etc
Chicken noodle soup in the packet - salt reduced, my kids love it and is great for a filling meal with bread and butter when I havent had a chance to cook
Tins of tuna - for toasted sandwiches or in pasta
Mixed Beans- easy for a salad, add some chopped coriander and red onion
Pasta
Burrito Pack - easy dinner
Frozen pizza bases - super easy meal and kids love em! Can hide lots of vegies too under tomato paste and cheese!
Rice - Good for bulking up stirfries etc
Umm cant think of anything else atm but hope that helps.
puff pastry, i great cheese over for a cheep lunch/snack also sausage mince is only $2-$3 and if you already have pastry, then easy and cheep sausage rolls!
noodles
spam (i love spam!)
flour sugar and butter, if i have the cake basics then i can whip up some cup cakes or cookies to tide the kids over between meals as day snacks
soup cans (chunky hinez ones)
tins of spaghetti (spaghetti on toast, yum)
pasta and the spaghetti sauce cans (near dolmioes but already has meat in the can, saved us a tight-ass/lazy week a few times!!)
basicaly anything on the shelf that you would normaly eat but can sit in the pantry for a while.
(there is NOTHING wrong with the odd night of cerial or 2 min noodles for dinner, least ur eating!)
Of course I like to make my own soup and freeze it but when it's on special, especially those chunky soups in a can, I stock up on those.
Rice I buy in bulk
Pasta
Eggs
The odd tin of pineapple or other fruit
The odd tin of veges - tomatoes or peas or mushrooms, basically to add to other leftovers or eggs
