With all the ice cream and popsicles TJ's put out this summer, I've lagged on getting around to Trader Joe's Peanuts for Chocolate Ice Cream. And my freezer is pretty full. But, here we go! So, if you liked the Chocolate and Peanut Butter Dipped Joe-Joe's that came out earlier this summer, this ice cream…
I've got some good news and some bad news. Ok, bad news first. There are only 8 cookies in a box of Trader Joe's Chocolate Peanut Butter Joe-Joe's. The good news? Now you know you should buy two boxes on your next TJ's trip.
So, this is a Joe-Joe with a peanut butter filling, dipped…
I usually try to follow the directions the first time I make something. But I threw that out the window with Trader Joe's No Bake Nut Butter Bar Mix ($3.49 per box). It's already a Choose Your Own Adventure where you can pick your favorite nut butter and either maple syrup or honey as…
It always makes me laugh that instant ramen is (dis)regarded as college food. It’s the savior for the days when you’re so broke you drink Keystone Light and survive on a 33 cent pack of noodles. You couldn't possibly eat it because...you like it. But as with so many foods from my childhood, maybe initially…
After we’re back from a vacation, I always find myself trying to hold on to a piece of it, checking the weather, reading the local news from wherever we’ve just been. After our trip to Tofino in August, I’ve found myself checking the Long Beach Lodge Resort’s Web cam with a view of the beach and Cox Bay and trying to recreate the chocolate-topped protein bars they serve as part of their complimentary continental breakfast. But calling them protein bars really sells them short. Would you believe me if I told you they taste good and they're actually pretty healthy?
Back of the bag recipes have sustained us for ages. Our grandmothers clipped recipes from paper board cylinders of oatmeal, from the backs of chocolate chip bags, and ordered recipe booklets from Betty Crocker and Jello. Some of those recipes stand the test of time because manufacturers just keep putting them on the packages, like the Toll House chocolate chip cookie recipe. But others are lost to the ages because there was no where else to get them. It's in that spirit that I'm bringing you these cookies from the back of the Trader Joe's Rolled Oats bag. (And we all know how transitory products can be at Trader Joe’s.)
So, oatmeal cookies. But not just oatmeal, Gluten-Free Oatmeal Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip.

Is it wrong to be thinking about Christmas cookies in October? Every year holiday decorations seem to appear in stores earlier and earlier. I'm always that person who complains and shakes her head. Why can't we enjoy fall and give Halloween and Thanksgiving their due before Christmas barges in and takes over? But then again, I don't have kids yet, so Halloween passes by without much notice and for me Thanksgiving is more about the whole meal, so I'm giving myself a pass. It's ok to be thinking about Christmas cookies right now.
Jennifer Perillo, you and your family are in our thoughts and our hearts today. In celebration and remembrance of your husband Mikey, and because sometimes words just seem inadequate, here's a peanut butter pie partially (filling & ganache) based on Rose Levy Beranbaum's Chocolate Peanut Butter Mousse Tart.
