We Tried Trader Joe’s Corn Cookie Mix

Nothing says summer like corn on the cob. But instead of just keeping it in the produce section, Trader Joe's Corn Cookie Mix is hitting shelves now. It's essentially a cross between cornbread and a sugar cookie. Trader Joe's Corn Cookie mix makes 24 cookies. TJ's isn't messing around. A batch of 24 cookies…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Cauliflower Thins

Trader Joe's just can't stop with the cauliflower. Joining the cauliflower gnocchi and the cauli pizza crust, TJ's now stocks Trader Joe's Cauliflower Thins. Low-carb fans who went through the cloud bread craze will recognize it as similar-ish. It's shredded cauliflower held together by eggs and parmesan cheese, and formed into a 4-inch round. Intended…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Jicama Wraps

Trader Joe's Jicama Wraps took their time showing up in our stores in the Pacific Northwest. But I actually think they're hitting at the right time because they're great for low carb summer tacos. They literally are just thin slices of jicama, so you could just sprinkle them with some chile lime seasoning and snack…

We Tried Trader Joe’s Harissa Chicken Thighs

It's a weird time to review Trader Joe's products, because well, it's just a weird time, period. We're in the throws of a pandemic, you're doing your part to socially distance yourself. And maybe you did or didn't pick up a package of these chicken thighs on your last TJ's run. All anyone is…

Trader Joe’s Roasted Cauliflower and Cheese Ravioli w/ Kale Pesto

I'm starting to think I've been missing out when it comes to Trader Joe's refrigerated pastas. I love the Ricotta and Lemon Zest one and I usually buy the cheese tortellini if I'm making soup, but I haven't really explored the rest. I can now tell you, the Roasted Cauliflower and Cheese ravioli is very…

Lemon Ricotta Ravioli with Peas and Mint

Yes, You Can Buy All the Ingredients at Trader Joe's Ricotta and Lemon Zest ravioli is one of my favorite Trader Joe's spring products ($3.49 for an 8.8 oz. package). But the question always is, what kind of sauce should we do? You don't want to drown out the delicate lemon flavor with a…
