Made with just one ingredient, organic durum wheat semolina, this organic spaghetti is as clean and straightforward as it gets. Many boxed pastas, especially “enriched” varieties, sneak in additives and preservatives. Not this one. It’s organic, non-GMO, and free of artificial ingredients, making it a no-brainer staple for your pantry. Perfect for a classic marinara, pasta salad, or a quick weeknight dinner when paired with your favorite sauce and veggies.

When it comes to packaged meats, the fewer the ingredients, the better. This organic, grass-fed ground beef is just that, 100% beef, nothing more. It’s free from fillers, preservatives, and “natural flavors” that often sneak into other brands. Raised without antibiotics or hormones, this is a high-quality protein option you can feel good about. Ideal for tacos, burgers, meat sauces, or skillet meals.

These petite gold potatoes are naturally creamy and full of flavor with no need for seed oils or seasonings. Unlike many pre-prepped or frozen potato options that contain stabilizers or preservatives, this simple, whole-food option keeps it real. Roast them with olive oil and herbs, toss them in a breakfast hash, or boil and mash for a comforting side dish.

Canned beans are a kitchen lifesaver, but not all are created equal. Some brands are loaded with hydrogenated oils, artificial flavors, or unnecessary preservatives. Kroger’s Spicy Refried Beans stand out with a surprisingly clean ingredient list. They’re made with cooked beans, jalapeños, and simple spices, no lard or mystery ingredients. With a little heat and a lot of flavor, they’re perfect for tacos, burrito bowls, or as a savory side dish.

Many flavored or pre-cooked rice options come packed with added sodium, preservatives, and artificial colorings. This jasmine rice keeps it simple, with just one ingredient: rice. It’s aromatic, fluffy, and versatile, making it a perfect match for stir-fries, curries, or grain bowls. Whether you’re meal prepping or cooking on the fly, this pantry staple is a must-have for healthy eating.

Finding nutritious options doesn’t have to be overwhelming. By focusing on foods with short ingredient lists and no flagged additives, you can eat better without sacrificing convenience or taste. For more clean-label grocery finds, download the Trash Panda App for your next grocery trip.
