Hot on the heels of its Al Pastor Diced Pork Shoulder, Trader Joe's rolled out a new Carne Asada ready for the grill. So I'm gonna give you a tip to save you from my mistake. The most important thing is to read the package. Note that it says "thin sliced sirloin."
Although the package…

Although I'm not usually a strawberries in baked goods girlie, this was a big time fave last year. You can check out the review here.

Taco Tuesday ended up being on Thursday last week after Trader Joe's rolled out their new Al Pastor (inspired) Diced Pork Shoulder. Real deal al pastor is of course cooked and shaved off a trompa, so we're considering this one "inspired." And it's pretty good.
The meat is indeed diced (it's hard to tell…
I wasn't even sure Trader Joe's Gözlemes needed a review. What's not to like about a Turkish flatbread stuffed with three cheeses? But it turns out, it doesn't need so much of a review as a couple tips on cooking them. So, the box tells you to preheat a dry pan over medium low and…

TJ's version comes as a 4-pack, individually wrapped. I threw them in…
Remember those awesome pumpkin ginger mini scones Trader Joe's had a couple years back? Well, Trader Joe's new Mini Blueberry Scones sure look like they're from the same producer. And that's good news for all of us. Well, all of us who like blueberries, too, I guess.
Because these are delicious. I didn't even…
Trader Joe's latest mochi ice cream flavor is Salted Caramel. And I gotta tell ya, after the abomination that was Caramel Apple, I came into this tasting cautiously optimistic. I mean, you can't screw up plain caramel, can you? Thankfully, the answer in this case is no.
Now, is it truly salted caramel?…
Look, ya'll. Between Girl Scout Cookies, Bridgerton x Jeni's Ice Cream, and now these Trader Joe's Red Velvet Cupcakes, March is just gonna be a cheat MONTH. The good thing is, at least we have a little portion control with these 4 cupcakes. I had lunch and then managed to just have half.…
Can we talk about Trader Joe's new Jambalaya in the frozen section ($5.49 for a 16 oz. bag)? I made it for a quick lunch today, just tossed one serving in the microwave after I quickly sauteed some kale with garlic and cajun seasoning. And you know what? I really liked it!
Now, this…
