Trader Joe's - name your fav things

mma1029

I love love LOVE TJ's - we don't have one locally, the closest one is about an hour away which we go to every couple months for fun and I wanted to see what your fav things were to see if I'm missing out on anything before the next trip!

we don't have them either, so I have really only bought things that travel well. My absolute must get when i'm near one: Triple Ginger Snaps

krusin2gether

The Penne Pepperonata (not sure if I am spelling that correctly) -- it's amazing.

edamame rice crackers, popcorn, organic cheese sticks, peeled and cubed butternut squash, frozen ahi tuna, lump crab meat, whole wheat pizza dough, spinach pasta, roasted red pepper eggplant dip, bruschetta, sunflower seed butter and sweet tea wine are our staples!

katiekate1974

Eggplant cutlets, chili lime chicken patties, cinnamon cookies (cat shaped), Ezekiel bread, frozen mango chunks, pumpkin butter mmmmmmm, and the cereals--cheaper than in the grocery stores ETA: it's also the only place I've found gallons of organic milk

chocolate cat cookies for people

Steel cut oatmeal. It's frozen, which seems weird, but after heated up...SO good!  I don't live close to one either.  It's rarely convenient for me to get frozen foods and drive straight home before they thaw, so I don't get it often, but it's good!

JLS0320

Frozen bean and rice burritos, frozen cheese enchiladas, ice cream sandwiches, banana chocolate chip muffins, frozen orange chicken, garlic breadsticks, ......

I always make sure I have a bottle of the Thai Red Curry Sauce. DD goes crazy for chicken with this on it.

The vegetarian lasagna from the freezer section.  I also love their store-brand yogurts.

Yes!  Triple Ginger Snaps are my only must have, though I like other snacks there too.  DH and I can devour a tub of those cookies in a day, so it's a good thing there's no TJ's near us.

Casey loves : Potato pancakes, frozen fruit (mango, pineapple), freeze dried fruit (mango), greek yogurt, cheese blintz, cheese & crackers

I'm addicted to their chips and salsa, they also have popped chips that are outstanding.  I love their frozen veggies and also they have good easy frozen meals.  Their mac n cheese is pretty good for being frozen.  OH and their pretzel bread. 

ToledoDeux

Their frozen Chicken Tikka Masala is amazing - the best frozen Indian food I think I've had.  And their frozen microwavable brown rice is really good.

All their cookies/treats are awesome - I find that entire aisle way too tempting.

Cityplanner

I love their frozen steelcut oatmeal. And the less guilt (or no guilt, or something like that) corn chips. Oh and the maple flavored mini wheats. They also have a good organic, just-apples applesauce.

HA!! Must be a name thing - MY Casey freaks out over the freeze dried mango! 

blushingbrideoct07

Pretzel bread, cinnamon pita chips, those frozen tamales, and the mixed bag of frozen veggies.  (potatoes, broccoli and green beans, I think)

I think I need to go to TJ's!!  Everything sounds good.  They just opened one closer to my house and I've never been.
