I'm an executive Costco member and cookbook author. I swear by these 10 ingredients for simple, delicious meals.

As a recipe developer and cookbook author, I use my Costco executive membership to stock up on quality ingredients. These are my favorite finds.

Alyse Whitney, a cookbook author and recipe developer, is an executive Costco member and swears by the store's food selection. She purchases staple ingredients, sauces, and other items using her executive membership and has found great deals on hummus, cheese, kimchi, and scallion noodles. As a cookbook author, Whitney has streamlined which cost-saving items are worth buying in bulk at Costco.

Some of her go-to ingredients include S&W Organic chickpeas, Ithaca Hummus, Kooshy Mambo Italiano's sourdough croutons, Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning powder, Meredith Dairy's marinated goat cheese, Fly by Jing's Sichuan chili crisp, Kewpie mayonnaise, Jongga cabbage kimchi, and Bachan's Japanese barbecue sauce. These ingredients are used to create quick, protein-packed meals, enhance salads, and add a gourmet touch to simple dishes.
