Jamie Oliver has been trying to change America’s attitudes on food in his new ABC television series Jamie Oliver’s Food Resolution.

Jamie shared on Oprah.com some of what he considered kitchen essentials, and many, if not most items are vegetarian and vegan friendly.

Plant based proteins like garbanzo, kidney and cannellini beans are shelf stable and great in a salad, with crackers or vegetables or straight from the can.

Seeds, dried pasta, and couscous offer alternatives when you are tired of legumes.

And spices like cumin and curry offer a twist to foods when traditional salt and pepper doesn’t do the trick.

Visit the site for Jamie’s entire list of kitchen essentials, which you can download and print in PDF format to take on your next shopping trip.
