About The Stretch pantry

Real Meals,
Real Life, Learn, Stretch & Thrive

I’m Alice, a mom, nurse, and lifelong foodie raised in Ghana, where flavor and resourcefulness go hand in hand. Through The Stretch Pantry, I share how to make the most of what you have—because a little can go a long way with the right touch. From nourishing meals to smart food storage, I’m here to help you stretch every bite.
