Quick and Easy Breakfast Burrito with Trader Joe’s Spicy Spuds

I had breakfast burritos on the brain. And when I saw the Spicy Spuds in Trader Joe's the other day, the first thing I thought of was a Hatch chile hash I used to make once in awhile. It's a riff on this Ellie Krieger recipe. The Spicy Spuds already have a bunch of…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Protein Pancakes

Trader Joe's Protein Pancakes basically provide a quick, high protein breakfast on the go. They're cottage cheese and eggs held together by oat flour, so they're thin, almost blini-like, and very very moist (sorry, but they are) when you eat them. As we all know, there are trade-offs you have to make to get that…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Strawberries & Creme Pancake and Waffle Mix

You know when a new pancake and waffle mix comes on the scene, I'm gonna make it as waffles. When Trader Joe's Strawberries & Creme Pancake & Waffle Mix landed, I wasn't super excited about the white chocolate chips. But that's just me forever not wanting things to be overly sweet. As I…

Hurry Up with My Damn Croissants aka We Tried Trader Joe’s Mini Croissant Swirls

The one downside of Trader Joe's frozen croissants is that you have to remember to proof them overnight. With Trader Joe's Mini Croissant Swirls, they're giving you a READY-TO-BAKE backup plan. While not exactly the same texture as a full size croissant, you still get the flakiness of croissant dough with good quality chocolate in…

Trader Joe’s Cocoa and Sea Salt Instant Oatmeal Ain’t Half Bad

I have to say, I was skeptical about Trader Joe's Cocoa and Sea Salt Instant Oatmeal. I'm more of an apple cinnamon gal, and to be totally honest, my favorite TJ's oats are the rolled oats in a bag. You can do them in the microwave, too, and they're way tastier with a better texture…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Bites

When I first saw Trader Joe's Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Bites I wondered if I could fool myself into believing they were really little donuts. I threw them in the air fryer, preheated to 400F and air fried them for 10 minutes. When they came out with a nice crackly crust dusted with cinnamon.sugar, I…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Ube Mochi Pancake & Waffle Mix

You can't have a blog called DailyWaffle without making Trader Joe's Ube Mochi and Pancake Mix into waffles. The great part about this mix is, a box makes 6 waffles (or 12 pancakes), and it gives you instructions for making just 2, if that's all you want. Trader Joe's Ube Mochi Pancake and Waffle…
