I'm getting really tired of my food expiring before I make anything with it, and I want to quit buying anything that can't be frozen or last several months in the cupboard.

I agree with beans & rice, that is the framework for a million great meals.

Whole canned tomatoes are very helpful to have around. Also canned coconut cream and the little cans of curry paste.

Triscuits crackers and nuts are good things to have on hand if you need snacks with calories.

If you are willing to buy lemons, oils, spices, and onions and garlic, you will be able to have a very vibrant and delicious healthy diet with canned or dried beans, canned tuna and sardines, canned tomatoes.
