New for Holiday 2022, Trader Joe's Date Royale is a deglet noor date stuffed with peanut butter and "enrobed" in dark chocolate. At $8 for a box of 10, it's a little spendy. But they come individually wrapped and you could easily put them out in a dish for a little sweet treat at a…
If you need a little break from pumpkin desserts, grab yourself a box of Trader Joe's Italian Custard Cream Puffs. The most important thing you need to know is THEY NEED TO THAW FOR 90 MINUTES. And at my house, they took the full hour and a half. I checked at an hour and the…
Officially it's Trader Joe's Spatchcocked Sweet and Savory Chicken
We're having Trader Joe's Spatchcocked Sweet and Savory Chicken for dinner tonight, so review will post tomorrow. I picked the smallest one I could find, it's just 2.88 lbs!, just in case I didn't like it. We'll see!
We're having it with Roasted Potatoes and…

You remember that old Tiffany song from the late 80s...."Could've been so beautiful, could've been so riiiiiight. Could've been my lover every day of my liiiiife." Remember? That's me trying Trader Joe's Salsa Verde Tortilla Chips. Man. The salsa verde seasoning on these is super tasty with a nice hit of lime. I was into…
Although Trader Joe's has been trotting out lots of non-dairy frozen dessert options over the last couple of years, it's interesting they went the standard dairy route for their Horchata Ice Cream. Sure, rice milk isn't necessarily known for rich creamy mouthfeel, but using regular dairy in this one and with a cinnamon forward…
When I first saw Trader Joe's Organic Chicken Nuggets on Reddit, I thought, hmh, could they beat my favorite Aoplegate? Now I know people swear the Just Bare ones at Costco are the way to go, but I'm the only one who eats them and I don't need a bag that huge.
First up,…
We finally had a nice couple of days this weekend, so we fired up the grill and cooked up Trader Joe's Jalapeño Mango Chicken sausage. I couldn't quite decide what to top it with, so I grabbed the jar of TJ's pineapple jam out of the fridge and added red onion and a little cilantro.…
I'm squeezing Trader Joe's Cheese Pastry Rolls in this week because you're gonna wanna grab two boxes for brunch this weekend. If a cream cheese danish is your favorite, but you'd love if it if the crust was a little crispier and flakier, these are for you.
The good news is, these require no…
