Every 148 and today I am doing a little Trader Joe's haul and just go back from the grocery store
And just walked in the door. I'm starving already
Looks like our outside patio like right by me, but I don't think he saw me I don't think you know about you
Okay, that was alarming. I'm currently starving
I woke up this morning to go get groceries pretty early because I'm kind of jet lag coming back from North Carolina
Which side down little promo if you have not seen my blog from Greece, I'm gonna have those links below
I recently watched my friend Rickman
She owes Trader Joe's haul and it gave me a couple ideas of things to buy Trader Joe's where I've always first
We shopped in college and now they're I don't know pretty much just where I go
Because when I go to regular grocery stores, I don't know where to find anything a because I'm used to Trader Joe's and B
They're just too many options of everything and see I just like the packaging and the branding of everything
It's just really cohesive. If you enjoyed this video, please make sure that you subscribe
It'd be awesome if you guys will let me know in the comments
What are your favorite things from Trader Joe's that you recommend I try so let's go ahead and get into the video
This is in no particular order. Um, the person who bags my groceries is really in control of the call
So first of all, I just got some eggs
Yeah, I get the organic Jumbo well
Great a brown eggs a while ago for a really long time
given
Still really I don't buy me you'll see I don't have like chicken or fish or anything this video which I go through like faces
On and off but it's been a while that I have not bought that at home, you know when I'm out
I don't eat it here necessarily just cuz I don't like cooking it and it goes bad and
blah blah blah and I went through a while not really getting any dairy also, but in this video
I have a few dairy things, but I went back to eggs because they are such a good source of protein
I eat these every like couple days like every three days or so for breakfast
That's just one little animal product that I did get. I know it's got a couple of things of lettuce for salad
so I have spit ever made and I spinach also whenever I'm sauteing veggies will usually at the very end like
Saute up a little bit of spinach and just make second as well or put it in smoothies or whatever
so this isn't necessarily for salads, but the romaine is
My salad go-to lettuce step up next
I'm just got some banana
And I'll probably add up these for how it always goes is I end up eating
Probably like one of these actually while it's like a fresh banana and the rest of these I wait until they get pretty ripe sit
There on the sweeter side and then I will cut these up and put them in a bag in the freezer
I have like just a
ongoing banana bag that I have in there
Because I love taking frozen bananas and putting them into my smoothies next up
I just got their non-dairy cultured coconut milk vanilla yogurt
I usually get the blueberry ones of these they make for really good like quick snack like on the go or whatever
It's just kind of an item. I have that I keep on hand for like rush situations
So I got the vanilla they were out of blueberry, but um definitely recommend trying out the blueberry
I don't know if I've actually ever even tried the vanilla so we will see so I'm sippin on some trader
Just he I'm hooked on the Moroccan mint green tea
I've never really been a tea person at all
but I saw that one day and I was like
You know what? I will give it a swing says he's gonna go to most nights
I would say like when I'm home with my roommates just watching TV
I will make a little cup of this next I've got some hummus and pita chips
These are just their regular ones again a very sad day
what I've learned today is that
Wednesdays might not be the opportune day to grocery shop because they did not have the cream bags of pita chips
Which you're like a herb garlic kind and I love those
with just their classic hummus because then the chips give it a little bit of like
Mister in flavor because I don't really like flavored hummus. I just only like original like I don't like red pepper
I don't like spicy. I don't like the cilantro on both hate cilantro comment below if you need cilantro only get classic comments
Love this I could I go through this often and I have to like have self-control next time
I just picked up a few lemons. Um, I really only use these in water just like cut up
I have a lemon day or so and I just got a couple of avocados
Survivor than I wanted, but it's final eat this in the next couple days. Thanks
I just got some zucchini for cutting up and sauteing or spiralizing to turn into some little zucchini noodles
also
I've not said this is definitely what you're about to see a bigger grocery day
Than usual for me because I've been out of town for so long
So pretty much like towards the end of when I was leaving. I had gone through like most all of my groceries
So this is definitely more than I pick up as well as I was trying new items. So two dairy islands
I got this time or just a little tiny thing of just playing goat cheese
I just like getting a small one of these for when I make this guac recipe that I've talked about before
That's just avocado mango and goat cheese. It's so good
You don't realize how good that combination is until you've tried it. You guys tweet me pictures and Thai Ministry of stories
I'd be making and trying it and saying how good it is, and it's so good
So definitely recommend that and then something I've actually never bought before but that I thought I would give a swing because tonight some friends
Are coming over for a little movie night here. So I got one of these
The double cream. Brie cheese little wedge. There were a lot of options for Bree. I didn't know anything. I'm not educated on
Brie, cheese, so if anyone is let me know the best time yet
But this is a double cream breathe and you'll see in a second
I got some honey and walnuts to do this little like baked brie recipe as well as some dried cranberries
I found a few recipes online
I'm not sure what I'm gonna go with it feel like you throw a bunch of things together and be fine
Yeah, I got that for this evening. So we'll see if that ends up being good next up a couple of frozen items first
I saw it. I've never tried these before these meatless breakfast patties
They look kind of sausage II I thought those would be good for breakfast
Just like on my own or whatever this one patties 80 calories 7 grams of protein. It's pretty good for me. Let's item it
So I'm excited to try those and then I also got these high protein at veggie burgers where each one of them has
26 grams of protein so I'll probably do for this is probably just slap like some avocado on top and eat that up with like
Side items maybe something I like doing with these corn and black bean veggie burgers
I have from Trader Joe's they're extremely flavorful
Is clicking on the stovetop and kind of crumbling it up and using that in a way
It's like a taco meat or even just like for this
Who knows maybe I would just whip up some quinoa and put this in there with some sauteed vegetables
I don't know. I don't need to give you guys the recipe for everything I'm talking about, but that's what I got
We will see if those are good next up. I don't know how I feel about cauliflower
But Brooke spoke really highly of this cauliflower. No Keith
I thought that I would just get it and move it see so it's apparent this
I just got this little thing of vodka sauce. I'm not make tomato sauce gal. I don't like tomato sauce on fauces
I don't like tomato sauce like heavily on pizzas. I prefer a white base pizza
So I got this vodka sauce because it's a good like intermedia it
basically
I just like it cause it's kind of cheesy a little creamy and we will see how this combo is together next
I thought I'd go fallout with cauliflower and I got this rice cauliflower stir-fry
I've been a big fan of Trader Joe's like rice dishes and stir fries in the past
I find them to always have a really good flavor combination. So we will see how this is next up
I just got some broccoli florets
Don't love broccoli
But it'll do
So I just got a bag of Brussels sprouts and a bag of white mushrooms and I like all three of those together next recruit
I got these pre sliced mangoes. I got this big thing of red seedless grapes just to snack on and lastly for fruit
I just got a thing of organic strawberries some salads
I got the Korean goddess salad dressing which I've never tried before and hear people talk about this
I believe Brooke might have talked about this in her video
But I've been hearing this for so long and I've never tried it for whatever reason so it says and this is avocado green onion
Cold-pressed lemon juice one even has cold-pressed mean does anyone know I don't think so
I don't know why that's such an advertising buzzword chives basil and garlic. So yeah, we will see how this is. I'm excited
I like all those ingredients so together. I assume it'll taste good next
I just got one Cardon of the non-dairy coconut beverage I get the original unsweetened one because I like putting this in smoothies
I also make ice in the want a sip easy. I love this. I just firstly preferred the
Original not a vanilla one and then next up. I move this is my last frozen item, which is this frozen quinoa veggie mixture
Remember back in college I would get this when I was in a dorm actually and just cook this in our microwave
It was good thing. I remember the flavor was good. So this will be a good side dish with something else next
I just got some organic fresh rosemary
We don't really like to do with this is cook sweet potatoes with this you have some like little rosemary potatoes
I just got this ginger tea, since I'm not liking tea and I love ginger
I know a lot of people don't like ginger but I am a fan next something. I'm quite excited to try that
I have never even seen before because it's so teeny and this isn't that like milk
Like the milk yogurt section. It's this Trader Joe's brown sugar and cinnamon butter spread. This is what it looks like again
It's really teeny, but I saw it and I was like, that's lunch quite good
So what I forgot to get to go with this was to pick up some gluten-free bagels
You're like gluten free cinnamon raisin bagels and also have those but I'm not a gluten free individual
I just like found a lot of items that are non dairy or gluten free that I like and don't necessarily
Prefer the original over them that much if that makes sense
So then I kind of feel like why not just opt for the non or gluten-free version of it
Yeah, not vegan not gluten-free
And I think that point has been conveyed
But I just want to say that I just kind of I like opting for
Those options when I can when I like them. So I will let you guys know how this is
I'm very excited
I
Alright, we're onto the last bag and it's the least empty you so don't worry or this is the most empty, so don't worry
So not gonna be that much longer, but I just got some organic coconut oil for cooking
I could eat Trader Joe's cross the snacks all day long. There are little pops BBQ chips amazing
however, I only picked up these inner peas which are just like
dehydrated peas
Basically, I don't even want to say they're really really good this really satisfies like a salty crunchy craving for me
I recommend giving those a try next a couple more fresh produce options
I've got a big yellow onion and quite a large sweet potato extra that free dish
I got some raw California walnut baking pieces and Reliance called that it's just like crumbled up walnuts
So I guess baking pieces just means they're like the stumbles which I'm completely fine with
Don't care and also to eat with every dish. I got these big and olive crisps, which I'm not
Oh, yeah
But I'm hoping that's gonna be fine when I got my Fuji like wine and cheese situation for maybe like The Bachelor
I need a reason that people over make like a fancy cheese burger
So all I want to do that and I feel like now could be the time next
I've got some dried cranberries for again the brie thing potentially or also on salad next up
My favorite cereal I love raisin bran. I don't care what anyone says it's the best cereal in the market
It's so good super crunchy super yummy find that despite
That's not being a to scoop raisin situation like with regular raisin bran, though
There are a lot of reasons in this so I love this
It's a great lazy breakfast or snack or whatever with some coconut milk
Alright, we have 5 more items. So next. I just got one of these jumbo sparkling mixed berry flavored waters
This is a good little just like fun drink next. I just got some organic ketchup for hashbrowns next
We just got some honey and then I got some almond butter because I've got yeah, I don't think I've ever bought almond butter
But recently the acai bowl there was almond butter on top and it was so good
So I thought this would be really good on smoothie bowls
And lastly the final item in this video is another TIA that I've never tried is the red Refresh herbal tea. Um,
Looks like this and it says a zesty blend of hibiscus lemongrass ever met orange peel and wild cherry bark
so I just thought that would be fun to try because I wanted a little more of like a
Sweet fruity option that is there for this video. I hope this wasn't too too long starving
So now I'm gonna put these groceries away
That is all let me know if you guys love any of these items and let me know if you have any other video requests
And I will see all of you guys in my next video
