Trader Joe’s Fresh Cranberry Orange Relish and Kettle Cooked Turkey Gravy

7 · Nov 20, 2018 · Updated December 16, 2018 · 5 Comments

Unopened containers of Trader Joe's Fresh Cranberry Orange Relish and Kettle Cooked Turkey Gravy

If there is one good thing about going to a Trader Joe’s before the holiday, it’s that the people in there seem just a big more kind and jolly than most grocery stores. The other grocery stores near me, the customers are miserable. Worse, the employees are even more miserable. So I hope you’ve done your shopping or are only running out for an item or two. As for me, here is a rare double review in honor of Thanksgiving.

Trader Joe’s Carrot Spirals

10 · Oct 5, 2018 · Updated October 29, 2018 · 10 Comments

Trader Joe's Carrot Spirals

If you are wondering, yes, I’ve reviewed Carrot Spirals before. Previously it was in the freezer aisle. They were the first spiralized item that I had seen in the freezer item. Since then I’ve added Zucchini Spirals. But now the refrigerated aisle is getting a bit of a makeover with spirals of sweet potatoes, butternut squash, zucchini (at my store these aren’t Trader Joe’s branded), and even pre-cut Spaghetti Squash.

Trader Joe’s Spicy Shrimp Bowl with Riced Cauliflower

19 · Oct 1, 2018 · Updated October 29, 2018 · 7 Comments

Trader Joe's Spicy Shrimp Bowl with Riced Cauliflower

So as 2018 draws to a close, it seems that Trader Joe’s has committed to two food products: sugar and cauliflower. The vast majority of the items I’m writing about are super sweet. I was more than happy to give my palate a break. While I don’t mind cauliflower sneaking into more items, but for me, it needs to be done well.

Trader Joe's Stuffed Peppers

The pros: Trader Joe’s Stuffed Peppers make for an easy meal at a reasonable calorie count.

Trader Joe's Sweet and Spicy Mango Vinaigrette bottle

The pros: Trader Joe’s Sweet and Spicy Mango Vinaigrette is seasonal.

Trader Joe's Italian Style Wrap out of the package

The pros:  Trader Joe’s Italian Style Wrap is one of the better wraps in the refrigerated aisle.

The cons:  This has a lot of calories in it. The creamy Dijon is more mayo than mustard. Oh and it contains 74% of your recommended fat intake. You’ll want to look over the nutritional information before grabbing and going.

The verdict:  …
