Trader Joe's Goodies

[Dina]

I love their coffee-- Love the Bay Blend (very strong)
They have the best Escarole Soup. I always go the day before Christmas Eve and get it, then I pass it off as my own on Christmas Day.
From the frozen section, we love the Chicken Enchiladas, Cod Sticks, Grilled chicken Strips, some of their Chinese Stir Fry Bags.
Just yesterday, my friend raved about their pumpkin butter, so I'm getting some on their next visit.
I love their Turkey chili
Barbecue Sauce
Soynut butter-- alot like peanut butter but nut free for my allergic kids
I love their Roasted chickens
They have the best Tortilla chips (perfect for dipping into the turkey chili)
Lemon Scented antibacterial handsoap-- just love the scent
I love their kitchen sponges
Their Orange Juice is good
My son loves their lemonade juice boxes

My very favorite things at Trader Joe's...

Garlic stuffed olives
Ponti Vermouth - cheap but OH so good in a martini or to cook with!
Purple Moon Shiraz @3.99, much better than the price implies
Frozen fire roasted corn
habenero coated pistachios
organic chicken stock
mushroom stuffed phyllo dough appetizers

Actually, the vermouth is the only thing I make a special trip for, everything else I pick up when I'm there.

DH also loves their canned clam chowder and beef stew and their artisan breads and lunch meats. Since the season is approaching, he likes to get the caviar they carry too.

Unfortunatley, you will not see the banana crisps for a while. Apparently the factory could not keep up with the demand. So, they closed the factory and are rebuilding I love those crisps.

Awwwwww...
I have two bags left and have had those for weeks...need more nanner crisps
Glad they are rebuilding, though

OT...but when did the nanners stop dancing...or was that a figment...
Anyhoozel...

Having TJ's sock-eye salmon and gorgonzola filled ravioli for dinner...they have some of the best frozen items at this place--makes me appear as if I have some fierce kitchen skills...great illusion

I love to run in and get their 7 layer dip as dinner sometimes! they also have a sun dried tomatoe chicken dish that is really good.

On a regular basis I buy feta, joe-joes(I'll have to try the candy cane ones), frozen fish, shrimp, pita chips, french onion soup, and enchiladas. I like to try a difference sauce every time I go in also.

Tasty lil things!
They are basically oreos but with crushed up bits of candy cane mixed into the creme...I think they are new for the holidays

I'm now pondering how good those would be as oreo truffles.

I forget what you call them, but I love the snap-peas (the crispy fried ones) that you can eat like a potato chip. I think you are supposed to put them on salads, but mine never last that long. I like the regular flavor, but haven't tried the ranch. They are so addictive!!
