Default Top 10 fresh veggies?

We are big veggie eaters in this house. I keep canned ones as backup but I
try to buy fresh ones at least once a week. I don't personally care for
frozen ones but I will sometimes add them to a soup or stew. And now that my
gardener has eaten all of my frozen peas and carrots, I will for sure look
for good deals on frozen ones an keep some for him. I also keep some dried
veggies. Mainly onion, celery leaves and jalapeno but sometimes bell
peppers.

Our favorites are fresh veggies though. Do you have a top 10 list of fresh
veggies that you always or almost always keep on hand? I realize some are
seasonal. For instance, I love bell peppers but they can get expensive and
aren't always good looking this time of year. My top 10 would be:

1. Celery
2. Carrots
3. Onions (white and yellow, sometimes sweet or purple)
4. Tomatoes
5.Lettuce
6. Other greens such as spinach, Swiss chard or kale
7. Potatoes (different varieties)
8. Broccoli
9. Summer squash
10. Sweet Peppers

And this time of year I usually buy sweet potatoes and winter squash quite a
bit. I also love fresh green beans but I only buy them when they look good.
