Hi!
Is anyone else in love with Trader Joe's? When I began using MFP, I also switched the grocery store that I would do the majority of my food shopping in. If you also shop there, what are your favorite things? I would like some new things to try that are healthy as well! Thanks!

    I LOVE Trader Joe's! What I love the most about it is that even if the food isn't all organic, it is all GMO-free!!! :heart:

    I love many of their frozen meals. The fettuccine with mushrooms is amazing, the multigrain waffles, and the different varieties of their risotto. Yum!

    I love Trader Joe's, too!! I like their organic olive oil, tabouleh and spreads and their sushi veggie rolls. I also like that I can get organic produce there, and it doesn't break the bank.:smile:

    Love their stuff. The Grilled Chicken Pasta Salad with Spicy Mango Vinaigrette....super good for 380 cals. The reduced guilt mac n cheese is pretty decent too :) Oh and the pomagranite cherry flavor sticks (like Crystal Light sort of)....so good, no weird taste like Crystal Light can have.

    Sugar snap peas because you don't have to wash them since they are packaged for microwaving, but I eat them raw, they are so good. For when you want the quick and easy of fast food, but don't want to be unhealthy. The carrots, too.

    Trader joes is the best! My favs are their raw almonds, sea salt choco almonds, low fat yougurts that come w/granola or almonds, low fat parmesean ranch dressing, coconut waters, & just about everything there..

    Love Trader Joe's but unfortunately they are not in Colorado. When I go home to Arizona or travel down to New Mexico always stop at the Trader Joe's to stock up.

    I would say Whole Foods, but it is way more expensive. Ironically, right across the street from my Trader Joe's is a Whole Foods. Talk about competition...
