Whole, chopped, crushed, plum...whatever type of tinned tomatoes you have on hand you can make so many different recipes with this pantry staple! These recipes are all simple, healthy and delicious.

The key to pantry recipes is being flexible and using what you have. All of the recipes below can easily be altered to fit what you've got on hand, if you've got any questions about substitutions then do comment below or send me a message on social media!

I normally keep plenty of tins of chopped tomatoes in the cupboard so that's what's used in most of the recipes below but if you can only get whole then you can use a wooden spoon (or your hands!) to break them down.
