Sometimes I bulk out my shakshuka with another great pantry staple - lentils. And a little more involved for this thread but mujadara is another great dish that's primarily pantry ingredients plus onions. But I almost always have onions on hand and they keep so I give them a pass

Onions could also be pressure canned, if the world is ending. They keep well enough they're not usually an issue for me, though, unlike literally all other produce except common tubers and maybe cabbages.

Lentils in shakshuka is a neat idea! I'll have to try that if I ever have to feed more than two with it. Do you use canned or dried? Funny enough, I have tried to make mujadara, although I don't think I "nailed it", and found it kind of bland. Any tips on seasoning?
