Trader Joe's favorites

I have a new obsession- apple cinnamon goats milk cheese log with pumpkin cranberry crisps. So good.

I also recently found their sweet plantain chips. Yum!

Re: Trader Joe's favorites

the chicken and vegetable dumpling/gyozas are my favorite!

and all the chocolates and sweets. lol

plus organic berries when they have them.

and organic cheese sticks for DD. they are the only ones that actually resemble polly-o and taste good.

also the organic chicken wings during the summer months when we grill a lot.

i always stock up on dried fruit.

someone just told me about these almond croissants. I need to go find those!!!

Oh yeah. The almond croissants are so good!

I forgot to add their pork buns are great too.

THEY HAVE IT FRESH AND FROZEN!!

you have to ask for the frozen cauliflower. Theres fresh in the produce but you have to use it right away or just freeze it. go 1st thing int he AM or at the end of the day, otherwise they sell out. limit 2 per person.


chicken cilantro wontons smell like fart but are so yummy! i buy the miso broth. 2 cups of broth, 1 cup of water then add the wontons once it boils for a suuuuper low cal/fat meal. VERY filling

Seriously it is sold as soon as it comes in! Vultures swoop in and grab the bags... I've called ahead of time and asked them if they have any out before I go to the store

I really wish I had the time in my life to wait around a Trader Joe's to buy up all the bags of riced cauliflower.

Yes the riced cauliflower is the best! SO much easier than ricing it yourself which is a god awful job. I haven't been to TJ in months! I need to hit one up soon!

I don't go to TJ's as often as I used to, but when I do make it there I always pick up things for the kids- cereal bars, yogurt tubes, applesauce pouches, waffles, cheese sticks, mini ravioli, and mini ice cream cones. I also like the taco shells & taco seasoning, frozen gnocchi, dark chocolate peanut butter cups, french onion soup, and the frozen veggies.
