I LOVE Trader Joe's. That requires emphasis. There is one right down the street from my office, but not near my house (I know a tragedy!), so I haven't been since the Shelter in Place order went into effect (and a week or so before). Today I had to go into my office for a few hours and so I took advantage of that fact and did my grocery shopping at TJ's this week! You can head over to YouTube to see everything I bought, but I thought I would show you all some of my absolute favorite Trader Joe's items!
1. Trader Giotto's Fat Free Pizza Sauce
I love making pizzas at home and this sauce is so good and only one MyWW smartpoint for what I use on my pizzas! This is a newer discovery for me but has quickly become a staple!
2. Everything But the Bagel Seasoning Blend
Y'all... if you haven't tried this you must live under a rock! I put it on everything. It is a key ingredient in my quarantine favorite breakfast (Sausage Toaster Scramble with two fried eggs, Chipotle Tabasco sauce and this!)
3. Chocolate Chip Cocoa Merengues
I can't describe how wonderful these taste. You just will have to try them for yourself.
4. Organic Shredded Green & Red Cabbage with Orange Carrots
AKA - Coleslaw blend. I don't know why I love the one from Trader Joe's more than any other coleslaw blend, but it is just always fresh and stays that way longer than any other store!
5. Chicken Sausages (any flavor!)
These are the Sweet Italian Style, but they have so many other flavors and they are all super delicious and really quick and easy to heat up for any meal! This flavor I even eat for breakfast!
6. Fat Free Crumbled Feta Cheese
Is there a reason I like this one better than any other fat free feta? Yes. Could I tell you what it is? No. Could it possibly just be the spell of Trader Joe's taking over me? Probably.
7. Chicken Burrito Bowl
I don't buy a lot of single serve meals at Trader Joe's but this one is a favorite! It's packed with protein and veggies and tastes really good! It almost makes up for not going to Chipotle and Qdoba very often... almost...
8. Carrot Spirals
Y'all I fought the veggie noodle trend for so long I really did, and then I tried these. I would so much rather eat a pasta dish made with these than any pasta I have ever eaten ever. You have to try them!
9. Grilled White Meat Chicken Strips
I know how to cook chicken, I swear! But these are just so convenient! I'll throw them into salads, quesadilla, sandwiches and pastas when I'm feeling a little lazy!
10. Caramelized Onion Dip
This dip changed my life. I'm not joking. It seems so simple but it is now a staple! I eat it with chips, use it to flavor meats, use it instead of butter or mayonnaise, pretty much I put it everywhere! I grabbed it on a whim because I didn't want to make onion dip one day before a party and I haven't made homemade onion dip since.
