Hey guys, it's Ro! I'm hanging out with Cookie today. She's gonna help me film a video. We'll see how this goes
I have been really excited and having a lot of fun with the new types of videos, you guys are requesting
So we're doing still food videos and also some lifestyle videos
I did a what's in my fridge tour for you foodies and a bedroom tour and, like, closet tour
anyways, I'm having a blast and I got a lot of requests to do a what's in my pantry or a
Pantry tour. So for you foodies that is exactly what we're doing today

If you like this video,
please give it a thumbs up so that I know that you liked it. Cookie would give it a thumbs up
but she doesn't have any thumbs. She just has paws. Look what we - look what we're working with down here
there's no thumbs. Also if you think Cookie's cute, give her a thumbs up so that she knows.
All right now without further ado, let's start this pantry tour. Here is the door
Alright, come on Cookie. Let's go in. Funny story, one time
I thought I lost Cookie cuz the front door was open. She was in the pantry...
The whole time. I ran around the neighborhood. I was looking for her everywhere
And then I think my sister found her, opened the door to the pantry, Cookie's
there just like looking at her food like *makes noise* Ta da! So here we are inside my pantry
I used a bunch of different baskets, bins, and jars
I found most of them from the Container Store to organize everything in here
Let's start at the bottom and work our way up and I'll show you what's going on. On the bottom of the pantry
I keep these bins and I keep reusable bags for grocery shopping and paper bags. These labels are really neat
They're metal
They came in a stack and you can just write whatever little label you want to on a little piece of paper and
Slide them in and they easily attach to the front of the basket.
I have found that labeling thing saves a lot of time. It keeps things really organized and
If you have a lot of people coming over they can visually see where everything is. And I found it really helpful
This is Cookie's food. And then this is actually my sister's dog's food. His name's Henry. He comes over almost every day
So I keep his food right here in case he wants a snack.
Lastly, down here is my commercial size KitchenAid. I have a smaller stand mixer for when I'm just making a batch of cookies
But when I am recipe developing, or it's the holidays, I take my baking game very serious and I bring out the very large
KitchenAid stand mixer. That is the commercial size and its bowls. Now onto the second shelf. Moving up one we have breakfast foods
altogether. This is a bin for vitamins airborne and some protein powder. The vitamins
I like to use are... they're gummy! I also have some Vitamin D.
You would think that living in Southern, California
I would get enough sunshine, but I guess I'm indoors a lot like going to meetings and filming and stuff.
This is my boyfriend's. These are his vitamins. He doesn't like to swallow pills. He's actually really bad at it
so I also got him gummy ones. I found these at Whole Foods.
It kind of tastes like an organic fruit juice. So they're really yummy. This next basket is for our cereal.
We've got Cheerios. Not only honey nut cheerios, which are my favorite, but the regular classic Cheerios yum yum
I have a really funny story about
Cheerios. My mom actually taught me how to walk using Cheerios. That's right. I'm very food motivated
She trained me like a little puppy like a little dog
She would line them up - little Cheerios along the edge of our coffee table and
I would stand up eat the cheerio. And then I learned that it was faster to just kind of waddle
over to the next cheerio and keep eating them all the way around. It was
faster to do that than it was to sit back down again crawl over to the next one.
Oh, I think I actually have footage of this. This is so funny
So if I have that footage, I'm gonna insert it right here right now
This is baby Ro learning how to walk using Cheerios. Ready set go!
Here, Rosanna
Look it!
Cheerios
Okay
Some other cereals I have in here
I really like the brand Cascade Farm and my two favorite that they make are their cinnamon crunch.
Cascade farm is a really great company and I love their brand. They are all Fairtrade organic
non-gmo
And I absolutely love this. This is my new cinnamon toast crunch
yum yum yum. Another one of my favorites are the Fruitful-O's
I really like the taste and they aren't artificially flavored or colored they're naturally this way and they're really
really good. The last cereal that I keep in my pantry that I absolutely love is by Kashi go lean. I
love this one. It has a really high protein and
fiber. It really fills you up, but I have to be honest. The taste is very
It tastes - it tastes kind of like cardboard so it's good to use
I use a vanilla soymilk, a little bit of honey.
Maybe a raw honey and sprinkle it with some fresh berries and just those little additions really bring out the flavor a little
sweetness, and it fills me up. I feel so good afterwards.
So I absolutely love this cereal. Last breakfast bin is filled with steel-cut oatmeal, regular oatmeal,
I have an instant pancake mix for the days that I'm feeling a little lazy and I don't want to make them from scratch
I have one grab and go and
Granola! In the corner of the pantry
I keep lazy susans so I can spin around and keep a bunch of stuff on there
These are all my cooking oils. I use a bunch of different oils when they bake and cook. So I keep coconut oil, olive oil
We've got some balsamic vinegar, distilled water, vegetable oil. Some sprays - coconut and olive and
grape seed oil. In these bins. I've got grains and pastas. I love these bins cuz they're see-through
And so you can see what's in them. The first bin has some
couscous
yum! Quinoa and brown rice
and *laughs*
I think it's like instant jambalaya. I love jambalaya. It is so good.
This may not be the healthiest thing out there
But I don't care. Some things you just need to have a food for the soul
And this is one of those things. This bin has a bunch of rice papers
I use these whenever I'm making spring rolls. I like to make fresh veggie spring rolls
Sometimes I put tofu in them sometimes chicken, but they are delicious. Dip it in a peanut sauce
YUM, then over here I have a bunch of box pastas
I made a video of my favorite vegan snacks and this was one of them because my sister is very sensitive to dairy
So I like to keep a few of these at the house
So she has something to grab and *gasps* I was at Whole Foods and they came out with a new one
So a new vegan creamy pasta by Annie's
this is a brand that I absolutely love. Another pasta brand that I love is Ancient Harvest. They make pasta out of corn and
quinoa, all of them are organic, non-gmo, gluten-free and
Kosher and get this you guys ready this two ingredients
Here we go. Here we go
Where is it? Every box is different. It's a fun game. Oh, there it is. You guys
organic corn flour and
organic quinoa flour. Two ingredients.
Also throwing this out there that this video is not sponsored by anything that I'm talking about today
But if you would like to sponsor me, let me know. Just reach out. I also keep some beverages stocked in my pantry
These are always changing but right now I have some water
I got a lot of questions about
the
beverages I had in my fridge tour. You were asking if they were in plastic bottles or glass bottles and they are all glass.
I also have some bubbly water. I love bubbly water
I do keep these stocked in my fridge and in the pantry. We have backups because I love Pellegrino. And lastly
I have some pink lemonade. In my freezer,
I have freshly squeezed lemon juice to make lemonade, but I don't have anything for pink lemonade
So I actually keep some stocked. On the third shelf, this snack area is really popping
We have some pop chips and some popcorn
That chips that I absolutely love and I always keep stocked because I have a lot of friends and family coming over all the time
We've got two flavors here. It's really loud
Two flavors of pop chips, I absolutely love barbecue and sea salt vinegar. I also like to keep tortilla chips
So I've got tortilla chips. And these are blue chips like love chips and salsa
And I love to have them on hand if friends come over
It's a really good snack. And this is a brand that is a feel-good brand
Sometimes when I'm shopping at the store and I see that a brand has partnered with a charity organization like World Wildlife Foundation
It makes me really happy and it makes me want to support them because they're doing good in the world
So why not support companies who are also doing good and they're like Fritos, but it's a - it's a Bear-ito
*giggles*
Then for tortilla chips, I like a very classic corn tortilla chip that goes good with salsa
*crinkle of bags* Okay, it's really loud.
Get over! Get back in there!
Girl nights are the best nights
They're just - you get your girl friends together, you hang out and have a bunch of snacks and the girls love popcorn
I think when we got together last weekend, we had a bunch of Skinny Pop
But the girls also love these so I keep them stocked. The two flavors that I love are the kettle corn
It's like a light kettle corn flavor. I can devour these. Probably, like, I can eat like three bags
of these, they're so good. And the sea salt. Cookie! and she's like "Salty snacks you rang?"
She's like "whatever mom do I get a popcorn or not?" I've shown these before but they have new packaging
It's a lightly salted pea crisp. It's a really good alternative to a potato chip and they're really really good
You've also seen these before, you know that I love my gently dried apples. They're by Peeled
They're non-gmo, organic, and delicious and I just - you guys ready for the new new? Ready for this?
I was flying back from Hawaii in the airport and I just saw that Peeled released mango
They have gently dried mangoes. And this is new to my pantry, new to my life. And I love them they are so good.
So if you love mangoes a great snack
YUM you
Continuing on! *laughs*
I have a bunch of nuts
I really like to snack on nuts because they provide protein, the good fat, lots of energy
We've got cashews, pumpkin seeds, pine nuts - so good to sprinkle on a salad or take a handful of or to make some pesto
Almonds, sliced almonds - I like to sprinkle these on a salad. Pecans,
pistachios, and walnuts. I have a bunch of these flip-top glass jars
I like to fill them with some of the baking ingredients that I use a lot. We have flour, organic sugar, some
cocoa powder
Mm-hmm. The jars are also next to another lazy susan
This is the second lazy susan and it's got a variety of all the things. This is almost empty
I need to buy another one. But this is
organic raw honey. So good!
I love adding this to Greek yogurt with a little bit of granola and berries in the morning
I make a bunch of things with this. Or that Kashi cereal, just a scoop of that, or if you're making a healthy
Smoothie in the morning, you can add a spoonful of honey. For jams these are my two
favorite. I love strawberry jam. This is one of my favorite brands. Then this second one is one that my sister got me
So thank you Molly. This is so sweet of you. She knows that I love huckleberry jam. I'm from the northwest in Seattle
And there's tons of huckleberries. They're very similar to blueberries, but better.
We've got huckleberry everything here. Thank you, Molly. Huckleberry syrup.
Huckleberry topping you just drizzle this on top of a freshly baked scone.
I am in brunch heaven. On the lazy susan, there are also some pasta sauces
I like to keep a couple jars of pasta sauce on the ready for all times because pasta is like the perfect dinner
This is one of my favorite marinara sauces. Monte Bene mm-mm-mmh!
Some vanilla extract and almond extract because these are the most common ingredients, extracts, that I use while I'm baking and
I know you're saying, "Ro what are you doing with a whole tub of molasses?"
I keep this on the ready because I can make a gingerbread cookie at a moment's notice at any time of day
I am armed and ready
This is the brand of salt and pepper that I use. These jars refill the salt and pepper grinders that I have in my kitchen
Last but not least the best peanut butter. I know a lot of you are busy
you don't have time to take 40 minutes to go to the store and find the
Absolute best peanut butter out there. Best for your body and best for the environment, so don't worry guys
I went out there and I did it for you. And here it is. It is CB's Nuts. It has one ingredient
Peanuts. That's it. Who would have thought? Last thing on this shelf are the spices. I like to organize them on this wood shelf
So I can see them very easily and these are all the spices that I use the most so I keep them
Refilled and ready to go at any time. Especially the cinnamon and what pumpkin spice?
Justine
Look what I have
A full bottle of pumpkin spice, girl, I am ready for fall.
Above the spices is the best bin in this entire pantry. This is the treat bin
It's the yummy yummy yummy in my tummy. These are so good, but macadamia nuts are really high in calories
So I just take a small handful and I enjoy every bite of them. They are so good
They come in different flavors, like sour cream and onion, but my favorite are the barbecue
Mmm, the treat then also has some chewy fruits. These are like organic
Starbursts
They're very similar and they're yummy they come in different flavors like orange and lemon and cherry. They are organic. They have no soy,
no gluten, no GMOs, they are not artificially flavored. There's no artificial colors
There's also no wheat or dairy
So they're sweets
But they're clean sweets. A bunch of these are cleaner sweets cuz I'm, you know, trying to be healthier
But still indulge in my sweet tooth
I think the only thing that isn't a clean sweet is Takis. But Takis gets a pass. So good!
I just had my first Taki like a couple weeks ago. Thank you
my friend Bethany Mota
We had a girls night at her place and she introduced me to Takis for the very first time. They are so good. So...
YUM So I have two chocolate fixes
They're both dark chocolate
This is dark chocolate covered goji berries, and it tastes very similar to chocolate-covered raisins, which I love. And again,
this is a feel-good brand
It is something that I like supporting. And then over here is by the same company
But these are dark chocolate chia seeds and they are delicious.
I can sprinkle them into a smoothie
So you don't even know that they're there or you can soak them in a liquid overnight like coconut milk
Or coconut water and in the morning
they kind of are jelly and a porridge and you can put
Granola or berries on top of them and have a chia seed porridge
Chia seeds do so many wonderful things for the body and one of the things - they help hair growth
Hey! *music plays*
The last yummy that I have in here are a bunch of these little all-natural
licorice. I love licorice one of my favorite are Red Vine
So I was trying to find a more healthier, like a clean sweet replacement, and I found these. It's called
Panda and these are so good. I absolutely love them. Next to the sweets
I have a basket of energy ball ingredients
These are a bunch of ingredients that I use to make these homemade energy balls
This recipe is so easy actually made it on television. I made it on Kelly and Ryan
They are gluten free, dairy free, all organic, and each little ball has five grams of protein
So if I'm running out the door
I usually just grab a few of them and put them in a little baggie and
I have little snacks wherever I'm going. The brand I use is Bob's Red Mill. Organic chia seeds, peanut butter, or almond butter
Whichever one you prefer. Organic maple syrup.
I use vegan protein powder so that my sister can have these energy balls too because she can't have dairy. And whatever dried fruit you'd
like. I really like cranberries with this recipe, but I've seen some people use raisins. Sometimes they sprinkle in chocolate chips as well
And if any of you are interested in making these energy balls
They are delicious and I will put the recipe in the description. The last things I have in here
They're so tall! They're all the way up there!
All of these white baskets are filled with a bunch of baking goodies. Frostings,
sugar, sprinkles everything that I used to decorate. Oh like in here, this is all extracts
pineapple extract
Pina Colada extract. Black cherry, pomegranate,
Pistachio. I have basically every extract that you can think of in here and I love it.
I kind of feel like a witch, like their little potions. That's kind of why I like baking.
Now, we have arrived to the pantry's penthouse. Up here I have some cake stands, a bunch of vases.
I really like mason jars and clear basic vases
Candy jars, and then over here
These are like little beverage dispensers. Whenever I'm having a get-together or a party at the house
I do like iced spa waters in these. A bunch of water infused with lemon and mint or a cucumber
Whatever you fancy. I love it up here. I feel like I'm a cheerleader again. Yeah
