Everyone is Morgan Yates
and today I'm doing a Trader Joe's haul because today I went cursed you're shopping for the first time and almost three weeks and it's
Probably the most exciting thing. I'm gonna be doing for the next three weeks again. So you guys always like these videos
so hopefully you get some new ideas of some new products to try or maybe some meal ideas or
Just a little something like that
I'm also going to be doing probably either my next video or the one after
Doing like an easy one person meal ideas video which I've done in the past as well
So I'm not gonna spoil
Everything and give away all of my meals as I go through these items by keeping out for that and you will get some more
Mail ideas zoom in this so if this is the first video you're seeing of mine
I would love if you would subscribe
we're gonna go ahead and hop in I'm gonna start with my frozen items because I think there's some I don't know I was like
seeing new froze and things cuz I'm really pay attention when I walked through the frozen section and I can say much about these but
These are just a constant repurchase for me the cauliflower gnocchi as well as this Japanese style fried rice
I haven't even tried just like the regular veggie fried rice. I treated you
So let me know if it's good or if it's better than this if you've had this
Really thought someone's breaking in I don't know how I was watching our vacuum just fell over no worries. Have you tried that one?
and this one let me know which ones better but I think the flavor is so good of this little
Japanese fried rice next that's something I've never tried but thought I would buy today is just this sweet and sour chicken
Because as I learned towards the tail end of my groceries of the past week
I've just been so lazy with cooking and I haven't dug too much into the frozen things that I bought in the past
But I thought I would pick up a couple fun things
Another you can purchase one of my favorite little desserts which are just the mini hold the cones or these tiny little like individual
Baby ice cream cones comes with eight in a box. These are so good
These are the ones with chocolate ice cream on the inside
They have vanilla as well and then during Christmas
They have like peppermint ones that are so good that I wish they would keep you around. But those are good little go-to
Sweet bite at the end of the night next up
I've never bought frozen cherries, but I don't know why I thought I wanted to spice up my smoothie game
I thought this would be good with maybe like like some chocolate protein powder some banana something another like a little chocolate cherry smoothie
I've also never bought frozen shrimp
But I'm going to try to recreate if you've ever been to Bonefish Grill the restaurant chain
They have these bang bang shrimp that my mom recreated at home
So in North Carolina where the rest of my family is quarantine a parent had a really bomb bang bang shrimp, dude
It's just like a good little like sriracha chili flavor. You'll see I'll show the other ingredients
I doubt for it later, but picked up frozen shrimp for that another frozen item. This is a little damaged in treatment
I've never tried this this is the orange tomato. Mozzarella
Little pizza orange it says organic
If you saw all around Instagram a week ago Adrian, and I basically like posted this little fake trip to Cabo
It was just like a taco night
We're making tacos
But I like tried to decorate like we were in the tropical location in whatever and it
Sparked the idea that now every weekend we're going to be traveling to a different international destination
So actually this weekend we're doing Greece when this video goes up
You can probably go. I'll have an Instagram highlight on my Instagram, but you can go check out what we did for Greece
I think next again. We're gonna do Italy and I have a bunch of different things for that
But I just thought I'd pick up a little baby Pizza is like an appetizer. I'm not really a big pizza person
I never crave it. It's fine. But I didn't want to have like a whole pizza for our Italian night
So I just got a little baby one another frozen item. I got are these chicken enchiladas?
I don't know anything about these didn't read anything about it. I just saw it and I thought
What could go wrong next up also in relation to our Italian night in I got this frozen fettuccine with mushrooms
I also never had this but I thought it'd be easier than making my own whole pasta dish
So yeah, that is for that next
I'll include this in my frozen section because I put these in the freezer
But I just got two little packs of fresh mint to have a new favorite smoothie recipe involving this I'm gonna show in that meal
ideas video coming up soon
So look back for that and you will get the full recipe there next just kind of like an exciting purchase
I already have acai packets in my freezers. I don't normally use it's probably the exact same little package in this box
That was just marked up in price. I don't know. I got an organic acai bowl that comes with some little toppings
There's granola coconut strawberries blueberries banana, and it just seems like something fun. I don't know
You know, I'm all about spicing up life these days next up. I got a couple little
crunchy
Breakfast tea egg dishes if you will just for like a fun weekend brunch
You guys know if you watched my vlogs, I have the same avocados host every single to my life for breakfast
But I thought maybe I want to spice things up sometime and maybe I don't want to put in a lot of work to do
It so I got mushroom and spinach quiche
That we'll see if it's good
And then I got some little egg frittata bites with Swiss cheese and cauliflower
What is cauliflower doing and that I am not sure?
I don't know that looks kind of like the Starbucks little bite things that are so good
I mean my friends we've formed this fake little brunch Club. It's literally just
Going to brunch and like taking photos of it
Here's this dream
If you won't follow it, but we're gonna do a little virtual brunch Club since obviously now we can't go to brunch
So I thought that could be fun for that next for when we go to go to France
I'm gonna look back on this like five years from now
Hopefully when we haven't been quarantined in a while and think I sound like I lost my mind
But for when we go to France from home here in a few weeks
I picked up this little this is also frozen item. It is a dozen
Mechelen macaroons, whatever, I don't know not not French that I've just thought would be fun
I think Adrienne's logic to these there
She is walking up right now at the thought of an allergy she runs so you get two of each of these flavors
There's fig lemon apricot apricot apricot coconut pistachio and salted caramel
Sasha was always my favorite kind so they'll hopefully be yummy Hey hi
I think that is it for my frozen stuff. So next up
Alright, actually, this is just kind of being gonna be a nanny order right now mother fresh herbs
I got I got some rosemary and I got some chives. This is just gonna go on a variety of things
I love having some fresh herbs
I just think it spices up life a little bit next if you in any way like tuna salad
And you have not picked up the Trader Joe's tuna salad
You need to it only lasts for a few days
From when you get it always so you gotta be snacking on it pretty quick, but I love this stuff
I eat it with these molten cream crackers that are just delicious something about these crackers. I don't know
They're so good. Great combo great little snack
Next I picked up actually two dozen of the organic free-range jumbo brown eggs because I put these on avocado toast every day
They don't expire until like May 6. So I thought I would pick up two dozen that way
Hopefully I can just not go to the store for a long time next a couple other little things first
I got their organic comments. Focus baby girl. This is my favorite hummus from Trader Joe's
I like it more than the plain one with like just the blue lid or whatever because there are fewer
Ingredients and I just come to prefer the taste of this one. I think it does taste
Substantially different and then secondly, I picked up the vegan kale cashew and basil pesto
So with the gnocchi or with any kind of little pasta, we have a bunch of options here
It's easy to just honest top saute like some broccoli and mushrooms or something
Get some veggies going dusting some gnocchi
Toss in some this and it is a good little very easy flavorful dish top with some parmesan usually next also for my avocado toast
I picked up a loaf of sourdough bread. I have another one in the freezer
That's just what I always do with them since I don't ever finish it by the time it expires
So that'll go in there. Once it is reaching its death date next for some tacos
I picked up some little corn tortillas and then I got a box of these fig and olive crisps
They look like this. They are super yummy. These are good for like a little cheese board
well
I've been making cheese boards
for a serving size of one but I'll show in a second some of the cheeses I got I think are good and easy for
Like a little one person situation next up if you saucy items first. I just got this sweet chili sauce
I plan to use this as well as I
Just got some sriracha of some of the staple ingredients in the sauce for that bang bang shrimp
Spoof recipe so we'll see if that's good
I plan to tweak the version my mom sent me to try to make it a little bit healthier
So if it turns out good in any way then it'll be in that
Meal ideas video and then next I just got some toasted sesame oil for no reason other than it just roped me in
I don't know. I saw it
I don't know what I'm gonna put this on out on me use apart
But I've been making a lot of like Asian e style dishes, especially like salmon and things like that. I don't know
We'll see if I tie this in at all next. I just got some more balsamic vinegar cuz this goes on my avocado toast
I put a blue dot on it because for things to Adrienne and I both buy
We each have colored little stickers that we put on so that we can tell who's this who's because we each have a color next
I just pick up some more chili flakes to cool all my avocado toast just for a fun little snack or dessert
I got some dark chocolate covered pretzels flynn's those probably be gone in no time next up a few beverages
I got I just picked up more of Trader Joe's oat milk. I do prefer the Oatley kind
I usually just get from Target
but they were out so I just got some more of this it goes in my coffee and in smoothies picked up a thing of
Sparkling water again for Italy or Greece or whatever for our little travels
I'm very excited about this you guys I have nothing else to do
So this is like my pride and joy right now is planting these little fake trips to over there
Let's wear out a little mark when I'm in Europe. I always love some sparkling water big sparkling water gals
So I thought that would be fun
And then I just picked up a thing of orange juice and I think of pineapple juice
This is for mimosas for our virtual brunch
And then this gonna go in I wasn't planning to say this
But I'm doing a video recreating Coachella at home
literally going so above and beyond please look out for that video because I'm I mean I've
Invested in this I just get these ideas and I've run with them and they are expensive
But I'm creating a little custom Coachella cocktail kind of how they do there and it's gonna have this in it
So next up a couple of protein things
I got some fresh Atlantic salmon, and then I got two little filet mignon steaks
Don't really normally ever buy steak. You're cooking at home occasionally
I buy salmon honestly the biggest challenge for me during quarantine and cooking and everything
like that is just cooking enough like meats and I feel like getting enough protein in general because typically
You know in a precoded world. I never really bought meat that much
I still I mean from getting weeks of groceries out of this
I still don't necessarily buy that much because I just don't enjoy cooking it
I don't know why I would just rather cook veggies and things like that. I don't like cooking raw things
But right now we're getting over that glass. So we just have a ton of produce options first up
I got a couple bags of spinach I put this in
Pastas, I put in smoothies also got some kale. I like putting this in like little veggie grain bowls
Maybe if I get really bored, I'll make some kale chips or something. I got some green onions
I like these on tacos
Sometimes I'm also gonna make a little baked potato soup recipe, but I normally make in like the fall when it's cold weather
But it's just something to spice up life. So I'm gonna make it now next
I got two little things of cremini mushrooms and two backs of broccoli because mushrooms and broccoli
My preferred vegetables I can put in anything. Oh, we still have our cheese's to help you didn't leave
There's some good cheese's next
I got back a little shredded Brussels sprouts my favorite or gonna make these is to roast these in the oven or saute Matapan
Whatever until they're crispy and in a bowl
I'll mix up some balsamic honey and lemon juice and then toss these in there and it tastes so good
It's inspired by a Brussels sprout dish at catch. I'm here in LA so about that. I got a red pepper
This is for some taco stuff. I'll just got a yellow onion for that as well
Or maybe I might even use the red pepper in the onion and a little like breakfast hash got one tomato
Don't know what my vision is for this really no idea. I have some like frozen veggie burgers in the freezer
That made me forget lazy
I'll whip one of those out and then I have like some different things to go on
It could be good to have it Tomatoes next. I got an orange. I'm not a big citrus
I'm not of an orange gal. Just terms like eating it playing not my fav
Not my go-to, but this is gonna make for a little garnish in some Aperol spritz
Drinks I'm gonna make for when we go to Italy next
I've I got a bunch of lemons and limes and then I also picked up quite literally ten
Avocados of varying degrees of ripeness to get me through all my avocados to the next few weeks
Hopefully as let's just to talk like Mexican II dishes with next I have a few dairy items and then I realized I missed some
meat items so so for a little cheese board party of one I recommend you get some kind of like
Hard cheese like a parmesan and then I love this little honey goat cheese with those the purple box of crackers the littles
They're kind of sweet. This is kind of sweet. I think that makes a really good combo
And then with this, I will actually I'm very good
I got a little pack up some sliced prosciutto and what I like doing for this is kind of creating like a little cheese prosciutto
roll up
So I kind of like cut the little pieces and then I'll cut some little pieces of parmesan and roll them up and it tastes
really good
I started like doing a little of this and then a little of the crackers and the honey goat cheese for an I'm feeling a
Little cheese board wine night to myself and the next I just picked up a couple of the plain Greek yogurt
It's actually gonna go into making the sauce for that shrimp recipe the version. My mom sent was made with mayo
I'm hoping this can be an okay swap
we're gonna see and then I just picked up I have bagels in the freezer as well that I got a while ago that I
Like cut and then froze, so just pop them in the toaster whenever I want a little bagel
I typically just get this like whipped cream cheese from Trader Joe's and I saw some of it in the fridge
So I thought I would spice things up try a new one and I saw this onion and chive cream cheese spread so we will
See if that is good
And then lastly for my tacos makes up this poyo
Asado that I have I bought this in college back when I just like didn't know how to cook I think
And I don't even remember it was good or not
This can be good in tacos as well as I picked up another little soy chorizo. But again, it's just so flavorful
I
Got to show you my favorite taco recipe how I whip these up in my easy recipes video coming up in a week or so
So that is actually I believe all I got I spent a grand total of two hundred and twelve dollars and nine cents
which is I mean more than double what I ever spend the cursory store typically while I'm stocking up for longer as well as like
35 of that was on just like the salmon and steak and you know, we're just stocking up that is it for this video
I hope all of you guys
Enjoyed it
