My Trader Joe's post
Trader Joe's is one of my favorite places to shop. I love the food and feel good about feeding it to my family. I haven't explored everything there, but here are a few of my favorites:
Mushroom Turnovers - you can find these in the frozen food section and they are yummy! I make these from scratch at home (dough and all) and these taste as good as the one's I make - with a lot less effort!
Chocolate Chip Cookies in the bread aisle. Need I say more?
Shrimp Stir Fry - also in frozen foods. You cook the shrimp for 3 minutes in a skillet, add the stir fry veggies for a few more and voila! Dinner is served. Add this with:
Egg Rolls and Vegetable Fried Rice - this stuff is better than any Chinese take out place - and it's better for you.
Guacamole starter kit - My friend Sandy told me about this one. It's where you find the tomatoes - it comes with all you need to make your own guacamole - and cheap too!
Frozen Fish and Fish sticks - These fish are so good I even eat them!
Chicken Tempura - I seriously am thinking about substituting the chicken nuggets my kids eat with these. They are so good and the sauce is separate so you can use as much or little as you want.
Charles Shaw Chardonnay - $2.99 - good stuff
