Trader Joe’s Everything but the Elote Seasoning Blend

An unopened bottle of Trader Joe's Everything but the Elote Seasoning Blend

Since the release of Trader Joe’s Everything but the Bagel seasoning, there really isn’t much that I go through by the bottle regularly. Until now. While it was just recently released, this little jar packs a punch in the flavor department.

An unopened box of Trader Joe's 12 Classic Lemon Bars

It’s wintertime. And citrus is really at its best this time of year. But aside from eating fresh fruit, there is on perennial favorite sitting in the freezer section that is ready-made, sliced up, and available in bite-sized pieces: Trader Joe’s 12 Classic Lemon Bars.

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Organic Cheese and Tomato Family Size Pizza

Well, here is one of the few items at Trader Joe’s that I’ve ever seen as being labeled as “Family Size.” But I am here to assure you that if your family is over the size of 2, you might need more. Sorry, this is no Costco sized item.

Trader Joe’s Raspberry and White Chocolate Bundt Cake

9 · Feb 10, 2020 · 6 Comments

Confession time: I’m really not a white chocolate fan. I don’t know what it is about it, but there are very few brands that I actually like. When I do have good white chocolate I know it right away. White chocolate is like tequila to me: the cheap stuff gives me an instant headache.

An unopened loaf of Trader Joe's Honey Baguette

So one of the new items that have hit the February Fearless Flyer this month was a new bakery item: the honey baguette. For the most part, many of the bakery items are pretty good. They have short shelf lives, but that is the sign of fresher food.

An unopened package of Trader Joe's Supreme Hydrating Eye Cream

It’s been a good run so far in the health and beauty items. So far this year we’ve seen a whole bunch released: from a microdermabrasion scrub to new facial wipes to a new cleansing oil. And considering we are pretty early into the year, these are at least the items that won’t impact your diet one bit. And nor will Trader Joe’s Supreme Hydrating Eye Cream.

An unopened package of Trader Joe's Ginger Beef Sirloin

It’s been a while since Trader Joe’s has added anything new to the pre-marinated meat selection. But when they do it can be quite hit or miss. Since most Trader Joe’s customers do make meals in a hurry (from time to time at least) then it is only fair that they finally add a stir fry into the mix.

Trader Joe’s February 2020 Fearless Flyer Matchups

A collage of 4 different Trader Joe's products

Welcome to the first product specific Fearless Flyer of the year. My goal here with this Trader Joe’s February 2020 Fearless Flyer Matchups are to match the products featured with reviews from this blog and from around the web.

If there is a picture next to the product, it is matched with a review from this blog. If it is just a link, then it is a review on a different site. If there is neither, that means I couldn’t find a review to match up with that product.

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookie Baking Mix

In my experience, there have been a number of products where the directions are less than perfect. Some have been outright wrong. However, there are some products where the directions could have been written a bit clearer which includes this Trader Joe’s Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookie Baking Mix.

Well here is something I’m happy to say, while Trader Joe’s has been hitting us with quite a few snacks I am very happy to report that the health and beauty section keeps getting new items. Best of all there hasn’t been a dud in the ones I’ve tried so far. This week alone has brought us not one, but two new items: Trader Joe’s Microdermabrasion Scrub and Trader Joe’s Ultra Hydrating Eye Cream.

New products make me happy. Especially when those new products just happen to be in the health and beauty aisle of Trader Joe’s. This week Trader Joe’s hit us with not one, but two new items: this cleansing oil and a Cucumber and Citrus Face and Body Wipes. Since my skin needs a bit of hydrating this far into winter, I decided to start with the cleansing oil.

Trader Joe's Chicken Fried Rice bag

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 package of Trader Joe's Vanilla Overnight Oats

I love a no-effort breakfast. In the mornings I will always choose snooze over pretty much any morning activity that requires any form of effort. My Keurig has a timer so it is warmed up when I am up, I’ll shower the night before, I make my lunch the night before, and I will literally do anything to get as much sleep as I can before the morning eventuality sets in. I am sure that I am not alone on this one either.

Trader Joe’s Cuban Style Citrus Garlic Bowl

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.

An unopened box of Trader Joe's 8 Mini Croissants

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

91 · Dec 29, 2019 · 8 Comments

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….
