I don’t know about you but we LOVE Trader Joe’s! I go weekly and when I walk inside I get a little giddy!! They have a talent of bring easy solutions to prepping dinner, highlighting seasonal ingredients, and meshing together yummy flavors with their sauces and dips. Their frozen food selection is the best and I adore how they bring FUN to food!
Instagram Post: Trader Joe’s Favorites Part 1 by Julie Gimeno
We don’t drink juice often but when we have breakfast for dinner nights, this is our go-to selection and it’s perfection!Tyler is obsessed with these mini peanut butter crackers and I’m equally obsessed with these sweet potato crackers!These frozen packs of minced garlic and ginger make preparing dinner so much easier!! You just pop out the cube when a recipe calls for minced garlic or ginger and easy peasy no fuss! I will add the garlic to so many things, eggs, veggie medleys, soups, meats, you name it! We are out by our pool a lot and I wanted to change things up from always having sandwiches and we tried these coconut shrimp and dipped them into this sweet chili sauce and it was SO tasty! I use this sweet chili sauce in Asian and Korean dishes too.These fruit wraps are a staple in my boy’s school lunches, easy to keep in your purse for an emergency snack option and they enjoy all the different flavors.We tried these delicious bites recently and they hit the spot! My boys were like, “where have you been hiding these??” they thought they were a brilliant idea on how to enjoy Mac and cheese.Easy dinner ALERT! We like the chicken spring rolls too! Make sure to follow the spring roll directions for the best way to enjoy them. This sauce is the bomb and you dip the spring rolls right into this sauce and feel like you are eating out. I love fried rice and this option does not disappoint for enjoying Asian dinner at home.These ice cream selections have been a staple in our home this Summer. They are the perfect size for an after swimming treat. The chocolate chip ice cream cone is seasonal so go get it now before they stop selling them.You will find this Tzatziki dip in my cart every week! Tyler loves dipping cucumbers in it at lunchtime. I love using the cucumber as a base then tearing up some turkey & cheese and dipping it into the dip….it’s the best!Another easy lunch option! Pop these babies into the oven and put some fresh pico do gallo into a dipping dish and enjoy!These are two of my favorite breakfast options from Trader Joe’s! These egg frittata’s are great with a little sour cream, melted cheese on top or to make an egg sandwich with an English muffin. When you want a fast healthy breakfast packed with nutrients go enjoy this Acai bowl!This Tomato and Roasted Red Pepper soup is so good alongside a grilled cheese for lunch. The Aioli Garlic Mustard sauce is great with so many things, on a burger, with pork chops, on a sandwich, with fish…the options are endless.Another easy dinner option! Cook up this turkey burger and enjoy this Mexican Style Roasted Corn on the side…dinner on the table in minutes!
