I love to make a Trader Joe’s run every month or so to stock up on some of my favorite items. It’s not that convenient to do my every day grocery shopping there, but there are a few things that I really like that you can’t buy at other stores. I have listed some Trader Joe’s favorites in past posts and will continue to do so as I discover new finds.
- The Unexpected Cheddar Cheese is a family favorite. It tastes like white cheddar cheese, but with a hint of parmesan just like the package states. It’s a hard cheese and little crumbly, but delicious.
- The Raisin Rosemary Crisps go great with the unexpected cheddar cheese. They are crisp and savory with a hint of sweetness from the raisins. They are a nice specialty cracker for entertaining.
- Trader Joe’s Sea Salt Butterscotch Caramels are wonderful. Beware, it’s hard to eat just one. My friend Mary told me about them and I didn’t buy them for the longest time because I knew I wouldn’t be able to stop eating them.
- Trader Joe’s Healthy 8 Chopped Veggie Mix is great tossed in salads. It contains chopped carrots, red and green cabbages, broccoli, jicama, bell peppers, radishes and celery. The best part is you don’t have to chop the vegetables yourself.
If you shop at Trader Joe’s what are some of your favorite finds? Please leave a comment.

Oh my… so many things I love @ TJ’s! Probably my #1 FAV is the Bruschetta (tomato/basil/garlic) SO YUMMY! Great on everything! Also love the chicken potstickers (frozen section) and we love their hummus and the mango salsa. The one thing I wish I had NEVER tried is the dark chocolate covered thin little pretzel thingies…. OMGosh… to die for! Oh ya… and the dark chocolate covered pomegranates… or blueberries… or tart cherries… or – well; you get where I’m goin’ with this, right? Gotta go. Feel a TJ run coming…:)

You are too funny Cathy. I haven’t had the chicken potstickers. I’ll have to get them the next time I go. I think Trader Joe’s needs to hire us to do product reviews 🙂

And BTW… thought of about 12 more things for “my list” of favs… 🙂
