I have been obsessed with Trader Joe's for a couple of years now... I wish I went more but its a bit of a drive and finding the time to do that is hard. I always like to have a few things from them in my freezer for a quick side, or quick app when I have friends over to heat up! The prices are amazing and their food tastes great! ALSO WINE IS CHEAP!! I get get my Kim Crawford for $11.99 which is a GREAT price! But here are a few of my favorites I picked up from the store recently! What are your favorite Trader Joe Items??
Cauliflower Pancakes- These are SO GOOD! I
like them a tad better than the regular potato ones. They are a bit thicker and have
chive in them which make them have some good flavor. I usually dip mine in sour
cream and applesauce! They make a great appetizer or even side with dinner!
Riced- Cauliflower "stuffing" I
tried this and it wasn't bad! Has a stuffing taste! I don't think I would buy this again but I am glad I tried it.
Thai Vegetable Gyoza- These are fantastic! I love to steam
them or pan fry them!
Cranberry Chevre-Goat cheese hand-rolled in candied
cranberries!! Its amazing on a rice cracker or regular!
Tea Tree Tingle Shampoo and Conditioner- I read this was
good on someones blog so I had to try it for myself! ITS SO REFRESHING IN THE
MORNING AND ONLY 3.99 EACH!
Kale,
Cashew & Basil Pesto- If you like pesto get this! It's so good and tasted
homemade! Typically I make mine myself but this is the best store bought ever!
Don't let the cashew freak you out! You cannot even taste it! You can put this on top of chicken, shrimp or make it with pasta!
Tarte de Champignons- SOUNDS FANCY I KNOW, its basically a
mushroom pizza and the dough is flaky and light and so good! I usually make
this with a side salad with dinner!
Vegetable Fried Rice- Hands down the best fried rice! I like
to get the Veggie so I can add my own meat to it! I've added ground chicken,
had chicken on the side, I have also added shrimp and it was very good!
Reduced Guilt Chunky
Guacamole- This stuff is addicting and we can eat a whole container in one
sitting! It's made with Greek yogurt but you really cant tell the difference!
Best with tortilla chips or even tacos!
Everything But the Bagel Seasoning- This stuff is great! Lately we have been doing avocado toast with egg and sprinkle this on top! I need to figure out other ways to use this! But I bet I can make a dip of some sort!
Spanakopita- You can really get these anywhere but I do love these ones because they dont go cheap with the filling! These are great to have in the freezer for sure! Quick heat up and you have a nice little snack if your friends come over or you go somewhere!
