Putting together a grocery list

Other than the obvious items like milk, bread, eggs, etc..
What are some staples that you normally keep around the house? i.e. what are some things that you regularly keep around that might not be considered something that most people wouldn't keep around?

I always keep a couple of good cheeses in the fridge...can always add them to sauces, salads, or take them straight up

Two things I always have in the pantry. Along the same lines, I also keep a jar of prepared pesto in case I'm in a rush and don't feel like making my own.
ETA: and roasted red peppers in oil

Zatarain's Yellow Rice mix
Fat-Free Refried Beans
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Ground turkey
Canned tomatoes
Yellow corn tortillas
Pam
Avacados
I love eating baked tortillas topped with beans, chicken, guacamole, etc. It's a staple in my house. And, the yellow rice is fat-free, so it's a great, easy side.

I regret making my own refied beans once....now the cans sit in the pantry waiting for a Food Bank drive and I'm too lazy to make my own every time I want them.

Crushed Red Pepper for pizza.
I keep a lot of McCormick seasoning bags. For Tacos, Meatloaf, Spaghetti, etc. Sometimes when I think I've got nothing in the pantry,I find a pouch and I'm good.
Also I use the meatloaf pouch for burgers.
