What Pantry items to Have in Your RV Kitchen

On your RV travels, you will want to predominantly cook for yourself. Not only is it more cost effective, but it adds to your RV experiences.

Thus, having your pantry covered with essentials is a must.

To help you, we have included a checklist that you may want to print and keep on file. We have left a couple of lines for you to include that are specific to your household needs.

1 Litre UHT milks (dairy, almond, soy, etc)
