Beans and rice together are supposed to give you complete proteins. I stocked up with those first and then started adding powdered milk, cheese, eggs, and some grains and dried/canned veggies.

Dry beans and rice are probably the best staples, provided that you can keep them dry. Along with canned fruits and veggies.
I like the idea of planting a sustainable garden, but for some of us that live in neighborhoods or suburbs, an OUTSIDE garden may not be ideal.
\Finding a way of growing herbs and vegetables INSIDE or constructing a "hot house" or indoor greenhouse might be the best way?
My wife and I have several large troughs and barrells that have been filleted to hold large amounts of dirt so that we can grow veggies inside
