Trader Joe’s Chicken Burrito Bowl

24 · Feb 3, 2017 · Updated October 29, 2018 · 8 Comments

Trader Joe's Chicken Burrito Bowl

The pros:  Trader Joe’s Chicken Burrito Bowl is a healthy portion of food ready in about 5 minutes from freezer to microwave. It’s very filling and I couldn’t finish it all. Good source of fiber.

The cons:  Flavor of Trader Joe’s Chicken Burrito Bowl. While the veggies came out well and had texture out of the microwave I was wishing for a packet of hot sauce or anything to brighten this up. Looks prettier than it tastes.

The verdict:  …

Trader Joe’s Oaxacan Inspired Chicken Thighs in Mole Sauce

4 · Jan 28, 2017 · Updated October 29, 2018 · 1 Comment

Trader Joes Oaxacan Inspired Chicken Thighs in Mole Sauce

The pros:  Right off of the grill pan Trader Joe’s Oaxacan Inspired Chicken Thighs in Mole Sauce made very tender chicken. Even served cold on it was still very tender. Made in the USA.

The cons:  The mole marinade was just ok and was difficult to visually tell if it was cooked through. A meat thermometer is recommended.

The verdict:  …

This Betty’s Crab Cake Recipe using Trader Joe’s Crab

Betty Crab Cake Recipe

I love crab cakes. They are expensive whether you buy them at the store or order them out. This is not your traditional Maryland style crab cake recipe. This is a very savory rendition that will allow you to add much flavor to canned crab, crab in the freezer case, or in the refrigerated case. I tend to use a lot of Penzey’s Spices. If you don’t have a location near you they take orders online. Their stuff is high quality and their stores are awesome. You can actually go into the store and sniff each and every spice they have. It’s also worth it to be on their mailing list. If you aren’t using Penzey’s, then by all means substitute what you can. I’ve included fresh and dry measurements so depending on what you have available so you can switch things out….

Trader Joe’s Sriracha Seafood Potstickers

6 · Jan 7, 2017 · Updated October 29, 2018 · Leave a Comment

Trader Joes Sriracha Seafood Potstickers

The pros:  Trader Joe’s Sriracha Seafood Potstickers are very tasty if you prepare these the way pot stickers should be prepared: in a pan.

The cons:  I microwaved half of the batch. Big mistake. They came out dry and rubbery.

The verdict:  …

Trader Joe’s Pizza Greco Roman

3 · Sep 30, 2016 · Updated December 28, 2019 · 2 Comments

Pizza used to be a cheap thing from the local pizzeria. Now, pizza in the surrounding area can now set you back close to $20 a pie. On the other end of the spectrum, if you catch a good sale at the supermarket you can get a personal sized pie for $1. Trader Joe’s Pizza Greco Roman is $3.99 and for that you get 2 pies. So we are looking at about $2 per pizza here. So here is the breakdown of what you get:

The Good:  A solid choice in the freezer section of Trader Joes, thin crust, good amount of toppings. Personal pie size.

The Bad: No microwave on this one, but maybe thats a good thing. Sitting down and eating 1 pizza is 3 servings so keep that in mind.

The Verdict:  …
