You really must try all of these 20 things. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
1. Picollo Paninis– Bite size grilled cheese sandwiches with pesto & red pepper spread. You won’t be able to eat just one. Make sure you make these only in the oven. Better results!
2. Nourish Lotion– This is great! Oil free and antioxidant. It goes on very light and your skin will feel so smooth after.
3. Shortcake Biscuits– These are unreal with some fresh berries and topped with whipped cream!
4. Sweet Apple Chicken Sausage– All natural. My kids and husband love these. They like them for breakfast or dinner.
5. British Style Crumpets– Fat free and have no cholesterol. I could eat 3 of these for breakfast everyday. I like them best slightly toasted with some butter and honey.
6. Mini Pumpkin Pies– These are adorable and a perfect size. Enough to satisfy your craving without going overboard. Top with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
7. Creamy Spinach and Artichoke Dip– I can eat this stuff plain with a spoon. No sugar and no carbs. Is great with chips (pita or regular) but we love to dip our veggies in this.
8. Belgium Chocolate Pudding– Use the Trader Joe’s whipped cream on top of this and you may die and go to heaven. Warning: it’s super rich.
9. Cinnamon Apple Snack Sticks– This is one of those kid snacks that moms like too. Think Taco Bell Cinnamon Twists. They are awesome!
10. Fat Free French Toast– Made with four grain bread. We have been eating these for years and none of us are sick of them. Best in the toaster.
11. Ice Cream Bon Bons– Better than regular Bon Bons. These have a bottom that taste like a brownie. They come in chocolate and vanilla. I am more of a chocolate person but I prefer the vanilla.
12. Steelcut Oatmeal– This is my breakfast many mornings. The hint of maple syrup in it makes it just enough sweet to not have to add anything. It is a good way to start the day and it fills you up.
13. Roasted Gorgonzola crackers– I don’t like Gorgonzola cheese very much but I love these crackers. They are flavorful, crisp and crunchy and just delicious.
14. Spinach & Kale GreekYogurt Dip– Perfect for dipping veggies. Low fat, low carb, low sugar and the kale and spinach give your body some good nutrients.
15. Artichoke and hearts of palm salad– This is not necessarily my favorite salad at TJ’s but I do really like it. It is one of their healthiest with the least amount of carbs and sugar.
16. Brownie Truffle Mix- These are so fudgy and rich. A really amazing brownie!
17. Organic Lowfat Yogurt– The best flavor… vanana. Obviously a mix of vanilla and bananas. It’s great! Always a hit with kids.
18. Chocolate Croissants– We like to treat ourselves to these guys on sunday mornings. When they come out of the oven fluffy and warm there is really nothing better. In my top 5 favorites from Traders.
19. Coconut Cranberry Granola– This is really good over the vanana yogurt. I also love it over Greek yogurt or just as cereal with milk. It’s a new product and it’s a good one!
20. Bool Kogi boneless beef ribs- A perfect crock pot meat. Already marinated and makes an easy dinner. The maui short ribs right next to these in the meat section are just as good! I usually serve this with the TJ’s sweet potato fries and a green salad.
