53 · Sep 1, 2019 · 6 Comments

An unopened package of Trader Joe's Black Bean and Cheese Taquitos

It’s been a while since Trader Joe’s Black Bean and Cheese Taquitos have been found on store shelves. And that made me sad. And it made my readers sad because these were the more flavorful of two taquito options.

Trader Joe’s Mac and Cheese Bites

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Mac and Cheese Bites

Is there anything more comforting than Mac and Cheese? I didn’t think so until I ate Trader Joe’s Mac and Cheese Bites. How can Mac and Cheese be made better? Clearly, the answer is breading them and frying them. This is another item from the freezer section, but I would keep this to a crowd pleasing appetizer or snack.

Copycat Trader Joe’s Oven Baked Cheese Bites

101 · Feb 28, 2019 · Updated July 22, 2019 · 21 Comments

A glass bowl full of my copycat Trader Joe's Oven Baked Cheese bites.

Don’t you hate it when you go to the store and one of your favorite items is sold out? I do. Interestingly enough, the ingredients to make these delicious bites are commonly available at the store. With a couple quick steps you can make your own. These can be ready in about 15 minutes and are a great match to the customer favorite. My copycat Trader Joe’s Oven Baked Cheese Bites recipe is also gluten-free and keto friendly, so if that is why you pick those items up, then keep this recipe handy! Parmesan Crisps like this are truly easy to make.…

An unopened box of Trader Joe's Reduced Guilt Mac and Cheese on a blue background

Well, it wouldn’t be the beginning of the year without looking at the lighter options available at Trader Joe’s. Now, I’ve had my fair share of Mac and Cheese offerings from the Pepperoni Mac and Cheese, Truffle Mac and Cheese, Gluten Free Mac and Cheese, Butternut Squash Mac and Cheese, and Hatch Chile Mac and Cheese. And yes, they are mostly pretty good.

An unopened package of Trader Joe's Cream Cheese Brioche Pastries box

There are two kinds of breakfast people: carb people and protein people. I am the first and my husband is without a doubt the second. In the morning, my breakfast for the most part needs to be of the grab and go variety. My husband on the other hand is heavy-handed with the protein whether it is bacon, eggs, steak, or anything else.

Trader Joe’s Queso Cheese Dip

67 · Mar 4, 2018 · Updated October 29, 2018 · 6 Comments

Trader Joe's Queso Cheese Dip

The pros:  Trader Joe’s Queso Cheese Dip is a low-calorie dip that will partially satisfy your spicy cheese dip cravings.

The cons: While low in calories, this makes sacrifices in other areas like thickness. This is a thin dip that is in no danger of breaking any chip that is placed into it.

Trader Joe’s Brie en Croute

82 · Mar 1, 2018 · Updated October 29, 2018 · 2 Comments

Trader Joe's Brie En Croute box

The pros:  Trader Joe’s Brie En Croute makes for a pretty tasty and melty appetizer. This came out of the oven in a more attractive way that the mini brie en croute did.

The cons: Mine was not as melty as the package makes it appear. This is not a quick appetizer either.

Trader Joe’s Ghost Pepper Cheddar Cheese

27 · Feb 12, 2018 · Updated October 29, 2018 · 10 Comments

Trader Joe's Ghost Pepper Cheddar Cheese package

The pros: Trader Joe’s Ghost Pepper Cheddar Cheese is hot cheese, but nothing you’ll need to sign a waiver to consume.

The cons: I did not love the flavor pairing here. Spice junkies might be bummed out that this is only medium to hot. This is meant to give a rich pepper flavor without completely overwhelming the palate.

Trader Joe's Chipotle Toscano Cheese as found on shelves

The pros:  Trader Joe’s Chipotle Toscano Cheese is a cheese that I only noticed on my latest trip into Trader Joe’s. There was a lot to like about this cheese especially if you like your cheese on the spicier side.

The cons:  If you do not like your cheese with a bit of smokey flavor and heat, then pass this by.

Trader Joe's Chunky Blue Cheese Dressing and Dip package

The pros:  Trader Joe’s Chunky Blue Cheese Dressing and Dip is a very tangy blue cheese dressing. It can be used as both a dressing and a dip.

The cons: If you prefer a thinner consistency or don’t appreciate the tang of blue cheese, then skip this.

Trader Joe's Cheesy Trees

The pros: Trader Joe’s Cheesy Trees are new, delicious, and full of cheese flavor.

The cons: This is a seasonal item. If you see them, then grab one (or a bunch) because they are already hard to find. A lot of my trees were broken.

Trader Joe’s Ovoline Mozzarella

3 · Jun 25, 2017 · Updated October 29, 2018 · Leave a Comment

Trader Joe's Ovoline Mozzarella

The pros: Trader Joe’s Ovoline Mozzarella is super fresh mozzarella that cuts easily and sits in enough salt water to add flavor.

The cons:  Short shelf life, if you are going to only eat one cheese ball at a time then you’ll want to cut the other in half to ensure that it stays submerged in salt water.

An unopened package of Trader Joe's Burrata

The pros: Trader Joe’s Burrata is mozzarella with a thick ricotta like center that is creamy and delicious. This product is reasonably priced for burrata.

The cons:  If you eat one ball it’s just over 350 calories. Otherwise, if you are more portion controlled you’ll have to find another way to store your leftovers other than in the package.

The verdict:  …
