Trader Joe’s Yummies

By Bekah Banihashemi | August 6, 2014

On Saturday, we will be heading out with our loaded moving truck to move to our new home! Trader Joe’s is a 6 minute drive from our new place! This was one of the first places I checked once we received our placement and will be one of our first stops once settled in. I love Trader Joe’s, and after living out of the country without it, I love it even more! I feel like I fill my basket to the brim and am always so surprised with the affordability of the groceries! Here are a few of my favorites…

Breakfast: Rolled Oats

You wouldn’t think that a brand or style of oats would make that much of a difference, but it really does! And the rolled oats from TJ’s are definitely my favorite!

Cereal: Puffins

Great with milk or to just toss in a bag for a snack while you are out!

The Healthy Snack: Organic Apple Strawberry Fruit Wrap

An easy on-the-go snack to throw in your purse!

The Somewhat Healthy Snack: Peanut Butter Pretzels

These are delish, but be careful, it is very easy to eat too many (or half the bag)!

The Healthier Chip: Flaxseed Chips

A crunchy chip with a healthy twist!

The Side: Farro

Takes 10 minutes to make and has a variety of uses! Make as a side for Mediterranean or Mexican, or use it as your base for a salad

The Peanut Butter: Creamy Salted Peanut Butter from unblanched peanuts

My all-time favorite peanut butter! Made from roasted peanuts and salt, no added sugar, and delicious on anything and everything!

The Patty: Masala Burgers

A vegetarian patty with Indian spices!

The Dangerous Dessert: Dark Chocolate Covered Almonds with Sea Salt and Turbinado Sugar

If you have not tried these, you should stop reading this post and go to Trader Joe’s right now to try them! 🙂 But really, these are really good! You may be mad at me that I told you about them because they are that good! It is worth it though!
