Store shelves are a bit scarcer these days as stay-at-home orders continue and people turn to their local grocers for essentials. But just because you might not be able to find everything on your list, that doesn’t mean you can’t still whip up some delicious new recipes. Even better, the main ingredients for these dishes are probably already sitting in the back of your pantry shelf.

So grab your canned tomatoes, veggies, chickpeas, and corn and try one of these 10 recipes.
