I'm planning my next trip. What are your Costco must haves?

I always buy the grilled chicken strips. They're so easy to put in a sandwich or add to any meal. 110 calories for 3 oz.
I also like the whole wheat tortillas, 100 calories each.

    OK, this is my favorite product from Cotsco...ready? Here it is;

    "All natural Vegan Garden Burgers"

    They are inexpensive, and around 100 calories a piece.

    Seriously buy them...you will looovee them.

    Best.

    I always get raw almonds and the new Jamba Juice freezer packs. I like the Jamba Juice freezer packs, but only if I add my own protein and I use coconut water instead of the apple juice they recommend because that has too much sugar!

    Tilapia filets - They thaw quickly when you forget to prepare ahead and are a low fat, easy to make protein.

    Individually wrapped frozen chicken breasts. nonstick spray in glass pan, sprinkle lemon pepper (or any other favorite seasoning) on both sides of frozen chicken...bake at 350 for about 35 minutes...easy!

    I also love Costco's individually wrapped Tilapia/Salmon/Cod filets...

    Oh, they just came out with Low Carb Tortillas there too!

    Kirkland Real Egg - I keep these in the freezer at work for quick protein breakfast at work.
    Kirkland Frozen Veggies - I keep a bag at work for some quick veggies.

    I heard they have some great fish burger patties. I haven't tried them yet but they are on my list.

    My Costco favorites are Fiber One Bars and Fiber One Brownies (90 cal); a double pack of Thomas' Light English Muffins (100 cal); their Red Delicious apples (I was never an apple fan until these!); and Kirkland boneless skinless chicken breasts. :)

    Omg these are great ideas. Keep them coming. I'm fairly new to Costco so I'm still learning about their products.
