Trader Joe’s Branzino Fillets

Trader Joe's Branzino Fillets

On one particular trip to Atlantic City to visit my mother-in-law we stopped at one of the casino’s restaurants. On that menu that night was something that made both my husband and his mother laugh out loud: Sea Bass.

Trader Joe’s Beef en Croute

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Beef en Croute

This won’t be my usual introduction but here goes: I hope you are reading this review of Trader Joe’s Beef en Croute before you make this. Or at least before bake this fully according to the directions. A while back I reviewed the turkey en croute. But there is a key difference: the turkey is cooked, but this isn’t.

Trader Joe’s Fiochetti with Pink Sauce

An unopened bag of Trader Joe's Cheese Filled Fiocchetti with Pink Sauce

Since this blog was started back in 2016, I’ve posted more than 1200 recipes or items. Which means there is a bit of a food memory here. And somewhere back in 2016 there used to be a somewhat similar product on store shelves. It was Trader Joe’s Prosciutto Perline pasta. It was the same pouch shape, but it was in the refrigerated aisle.

There are some products that Trader Joe’s can do no wrong with. So many of them are in the dessert section too. Their macarons are solid, the key lime pie is just hitting shelves as is the seasonal macaron aux framboises, and don’t forget about Trader Joe’s Sublime Ice Cream Sandwiches live up to their name.

So let’s be honest. There are a lot of people out there who cannot have dairy for a variety of reasons: perhaps they are lactose intolerant or perhaps for ethical reasons. So why not add to the long list of nondairy dessert options at Trader Joe’s?

An unopened container of Trader Joe's Ube Ice Cream

For the last year, I’ve seen various people post videos and pictures of purple-hued desserts. It wasn’t subtly hued either. It was a very in-your-face type of purple. Those confections weren’t all artificially colored. Nope, they were made with from a tuber called Ube. Now Trader Joe’s has hopped on the Ube train with their new Ube Ice Cream.

Trader Joe’s Steamed Pork and Ginger Soup Dumplings

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Steamed Pork and Ginger Soup Dumplings

For the past few weeks, I’ve been living out of whatever can be microwaved and eaten relatively quickly. Hopefully, in a few more weeks I’ll have a bit more time to get back in the kitchen and get cooking for real. But for right now, there are certain go-to items that I pick up and stock up on pretty much every time I go to Trader Joe’s. Soup dumplings and the Indian entrees are my standbys when things are getting tough in terms of time.

Trader Joe’s Shrimp Tikka Masala

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Shrimp Tikka Masala

So one of my favorite items from Trader Joe’s has to be the vast selection of Indian entrees. I’m pretty sure I stock up just about every time I go. It’s single serve and far cheaper than visiting an Indian restaurant. And to be honest, I’ve liked some of the frozen entrees better than some of the restaurants that I’ve visited.

Trader Joe’s Spinach and Artichoke Dip

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Creamy Spinach and Artichoke Dip

I love a good dip. A dip is something that I usually order as an appetizer when I go out to eat. But sometimes there are quiet nights where we just watch TV, Netflix, or a movie on DVD. So we make ourselves a couple of drinks and enjoy snack food rather and a real meal. Of all the dips I’ve tried Trader Joe’s Spinach and Artichoke Dip is my favorite. …

Trader Joe’s Kung Pao Chicken Mochi Balls

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Kung Pao Chicken Mochi Balls

Sorry for the time off. I think it is fair to say that, I was glued to the news like so many of you. And for the last few weeks like seems less and less normal by the day. So on my most recent shopping trip, I picked up a few essentials (after waiting in line but walked into a fully stocked store) and brought home enough groceries to last a bit. I’d rather not be part of the problem. So, I usually go shopping at Trader Joe’s twice a week to do small shops. Now, I’m probably going to do one larger shop every other week.

Trader Joe’s Chicken Fried Rice

So you are craving Chinese, but for some reason you aren’t going out or ordering in. This is a good, but not a great answer to not getting it at your local Chinese food establishment. Why isn’t it great?

Well, the answer is simple: if it’s chicken fried rice, I expect there to be chicken with a healthy dose of veggies in there. Trader Joe’s Chicken Fried Rice was mostly brown colored rice with chucks of scrambled egg….

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Cuban Style Citrus Garlic Bowl

The quest for a quick and flavorful lunch is really what got this blog started. My love of Trader Joe’s did start in the frozen section. And with the Indian selections that I was eating for lunch. Trader Joe’s quietly added a new item: this Cuban Citrus Garlic Bowl. Now, if you’ve ever had good Cuban food you know it is deeply flavorful with the right amount of acidity. So with fingers crossed, I grabbed this one day for a quick meal.

Welcome to Trader Joe’s 8 Mini Croissants review 2.0. It should actually be considered 3.0 as I never got a chance to try the original mini croissants. But since publishing this more than a year ago, some very passionate fans of the old product have come out to share their thoughts. And I’m happy to report this product is back and improved from the ones in a bag.

Trader Joe’s Chocolate Croissants

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Chocolate Croissants

Right before I got married, a coworker and I took a Croissant making class at Sur la Table. Yes, I had a fluffy white dress that was tailored to my exact frame and I was making buttered treats. Sorry, not sorry. When I walked away from that class I realized something important: they are a TON OF WORK (and a lot of butter). Labor of love is fine, but even Betty Crocker acknowledged women have things to do most of the time. Why mess with perfection when you can buy Trader Joe’s Chocolate Croissants in the freezer section….

In tonight’s review of something you didn’t think you need in your life is Trader Joe’s Chocolate Lava Gnocchi. Now, I can honestly say I’ve never thought about pairing chocolate and potato before. Heck, I’ve seen a lot of hype via the internet. But would it be as strange as the Chocolate Hummus? Or would it need to be made crisp like the Outside in Gnocchi?

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Cheesecake in a Bite

If New Yorkers do three food items well it is bagels, pizza, and cheesecake. Most people know Junior’s cheesecake. I personally prefer a complete hole in the wall in the middle of nowhere called Cascon Cheesecake. Others in the neighborhood always raved about La Cheesecake. In either case, good cheesecake was never far away.

If I’ve had one complaint in 2019 about Trader Joe’s, it is that I’ve tried too many snack related items. Not that I mind, I just look forward to the healthier options more. And only recently have some of those healthier options been hitting shelves. Like the recent Acai Bowl. Now that the weather is cooler, Trader Joe’s Pappa al Pomodoro is a quick meal that keeps the calories in check.

Food fusion here. Now, if you are from Philly, let me apologize on behalf of Trader Joe’s. These do not do a good Philly Cheesesteak justice. But as far as bao go, the dough here is at least as good as the Pork Bao Buns. However, as a combination Trader Joe’s Philly Cheesesteak Bao Buns just don’t match the hype.
