Trader Joe’s has an amazing garlic spread/dip for $3. It’s right there in the cold section near the hummus spreads. When I was at the checkout line, buying 2 containers, I mentioned to the cashier that it was one of my favorite things. He said he loved it and thought it was their best product. He said it was a customer favorite, best seller, too. It’s great as a topping for a soup, added to hummus or salad dressing, as a sandwich spread, ect. It’s tasty with vegan plant meats like chickun or meatless balls, added to a taco and so on... Thanks for the inspiration & helpful content you share.

If you have an Aldis or Lidl store nearby, check them out. They have less selection than TJ's, but carry some of the same offbeat products, generally much cheaper than TJ's. I saw the Everything Bagel topping in one of them (Lidl, IIRC.).( I find both Trader Joe's & Whole foods somewhat expensive, but I live within a mile or two of 7 major grocery stores, so I have options.) Sprouts is also very good for offbeat products - they have bulk bins for some dry goods, which I like. I used to live in Canada and, boy, do I miss Bulk Barn. And smoked paprika is awesome!

Just got back from Trader Joe's and picked up the Riced Cauliflower Bowl...BECAUSE OF YOU! Oh my gosh. So good. I added some chopped mushrooms and put them in on the second go in the mic...and then I dumped the whole thing over chopped romaine, which I prepped yesterday. That was because of YOU, Jessica! Watched your prepping video. I am totally WFPB/Vegan...but I get lazy. YOU made get back to prepping those all so important salads. BTW, I love the Cauliflower Gnocchi from Trader Joe's. Frozen. Excellent in the air fryer...dipped SOS free ketchup. I got mine from Dillon Homes but Primal Kitchen sells one at Sprouts.

1) Soy creamer for coffee . 2) Balsamic Vinegar glaze is amazing on top of fresh tomatoes. 3) Canned stuffed grape leaves. 4) Blueberry vegan yogurt on top of fresh blueberries or fruit. 5) Another favorite is steamed lentils (mixed with #6) 6) bruschetta on top of a bed of lettuce. 7) frozen organic brown rice is great. 8) I get the coconut that is shredded in larger pieces so I could make bacon-like pieces for potato salad. 9) Tiny avocado is good because it is small and there are several inside the package. 10) Shredded broccoli stems are wonderful. I believe everything is Vegan, but please check ingredients to make sure.

Love that cashew queso dip too and just found it a few weeks ago. I buy organic whenever possible and love TJ's fat free refried beans, no salt peanut butter, miso broth, pickled beets, kosher dill slices, canned beans, and mushrooms. Most of their produce is great and cheaper than elsewhere! I get that mixed nut butter at Costco because its organic and a huge container!

Great list!! Will try a couple of these. For shelf items, I love the TJs bean pasta... so good, organic and reasonably priced, as well as their raw nuts, and 21 Seasoning Salute (salt free & great in veggie soup). For the fridge, TJs also has the best price on organic tempeh and they have a delish rainbow wrap sandwich (hummus and veggies). Frozen, their tri color cauliflower can't be beat!! I don't get to TJs that often because it is 1.5 hrs away, but when I am in the area, I stock up on the above and grab a wrap for the road. I will keep an eye out for the queso and tahini next time I swing by. Thanks Krocks!!
@KrocksInTheKitchen

pda Thanks for all of the great ideas! We actually have the 21 seasoning but haven’t really used it yet so we’ll have to try it out! I actually almost bought that cauliflower on Saturday.

My favorite Trader Joe's item is... Raw Almonds! I make homemade Almond Milk every 3-4 days and these are the best and the least expensive. Fresh almond milk is so superior to any store bought that you will never want to go back after you make it yourself. I've been making it for about ten years now. Trader Joe's Almonds, water, a nut milk bag (no snickers here) and a Vitamix are all you need.

Trader Joes uses QAI as their main "certifier" for "their "Organic" Trader Joe's store labels. QAI has very weak standards and uses grey areas to the max. Try asking Trader Joes any hard core questions.... regarding their eggs, frozen seafood, etc. Additionally Trader Joe's uses the same tricks as Walmart to hire your neighbors for as little pay and benefits as possible

Will definitely try that Riced Cauliflower bowl! Thank you! My top ten are: 1. Organic Spring Mix, pink bag, in fresh produce section 2. Butternut squash chunks in fresh produce section 3. Organic fresh strawberries, super good price $3.99 per box 4. Frozen organic wild blueberries 5. Frozen organic strawberries 6. Frozen quinoa duo with vegetable melange...numbers are pretty good and I add chickpeas and more veggies to it 7. Frozen organic spinach 8. Organic strawberry fruit spread (no sugar added, just fruit juice) near the nut butters 9. Organic green tea bags...I drink like 2-3 cups of it WITH fresh lemon every day 10. Fresh lemons...can't find them for 49 each anywhere else except maybe WalMart but not as good quality. YAY for Trader Joe's !

I'm about an hour from our TJs so I really love watching TJ vegan haul videos so I have a better idea of what to look for when I get to go! Lauren Toyota from Hot for Food recently did a TJ haul video and says the Fiesta Dip is really similar to her recipe except it has cashews and isn't quite as smooth. She said when she put it in the blender to smooth it out more it tasted the same as hers. I look forward to trying it! The Everything But the Bagel seasoning is definitely something I keep stocked at home. Next time I'm going to look for the umami seasoning, too. I don't get to go enough to really have a favorite outside the Everything seasoning.

We will have to try that queso recipe - thanks for the info! We haven't had time to try out making any queso ourselves but definitely have plans to in the future. One thing I am sad we never got to try is the Eggplant Hummus. We kept hearing about it, but they never had it at our local stores. I heard they discontinued it, but it was oil free which is nice!

Split the pita in half first, then put in griddler! Also, that bagel seasoning is better than an everything bagel to me because it doesn't have fennel or caraway seeds common on bagels (I hate both of those!).

I love the Trader Joe's already ground flax seed. YUM. I could grind it like you guys do...but I take that as a short cut b/c it is so good!

Trader Joes uses QAI as their main "certifier" for "their "Organic" Trader Joe's store labels. QAI has very weak standards and uses grey areas to the max. Try asking Trader Joes any hard core questions.... regarding their eggs, frozen seafood, etc. Additionally Trader Joe's uses the same tricks as Walmart to hire your neighbors for as little pay and benefits as possible

luke lucy , I’m not sure where you got your information about TJ’s employment practices. My understanding is that they treat their employees pretty well, especially when compared to other places. I have a friend that worked for decades in grocery store upper management. When he made a conscious decision to pull out of the rat race, he chose to work at Trader Joe’s. He repeatedly turned down promotions but they eventually introduced a different rating or employee designation to retain those like him who were great workers but not interested in management positions. It just gives him a little more money and a few more benefits but the point is that they retain their staff long term. That’s not at all the way Walmart works.

Their frozen edamame is great thawed in salads, fat free eggplant hummus, Japanese sweet potatoes, chipolte garlic salsa

I totally agree about their frozen edamame! 😀 We have not tried the others! They sound awesome! We will have to pick some of those up the next time we go! 😀 -Brian

I love Trader Joe's. I can't believe I only matched one item with your list ( Tahini sauce ) We love shopping there because they have a good selection of items without corn/wheat/soy which is hard to find thees days. My top 10 list is. #1 Mayonnaise ( because it's the only one I can find without corn or soy ) # 2 ketchup ( same reason ) #3 baked beans ( same reason ) #4 pickle relish ( same reason ) #5 red lentil pasta, #6 frozen beef cabbage rolls ( minimal ingredients ) #7 Frozen Chicken Tikka meal #8 yellow potatoes # 9 the trader joe's organic regular carrots ( I swear they are 10 x better than any other carrots - not sure why ) #10 a few things I used to love but no longer get due to food issues or my husbands favorites - trader joes thick honey yogurt, ciabbata bread for french toast, trader joe's organic blue corn chips, ... and my husbands favorite... bakery lemon stuffed cookies. ( he still gets those ) I am definitely going to look for the riced vegetable medley. That looks good. Thanks for the video. I love to know what other people buy at the store.

omg I forgot all about my latest favorite which is the tri colored frozen cauliflower. Even my dog goes crazy for it. He will eat 1/3 a bag of it and he's a chihuahua :)

Here are a few more of our favorites! - Peanuts Go On A Date Bars - Mushroom Umami Seasoning - 3 Seed Beet Crackers (These do have some oil in them, but they are a nice special occasion treat! Also like the Sweet Potato ones!) - Sprouted Extra Firm Tofu - Nutritional Yeast - Red Lentil Pasta (I like this, but Brian isn't a huge fan. He said it was too chewy, but I like the chewiness!) We also buy our frozen mango & cherries there. I wasn't a fan of their frozen pineapple, so I usually get that at Whole Foods instead. I prefer to get frozen blueberries & raspberries at Aldi. It's crazy how different they can be depending where you buy them!

You guys are so lucky to like the same veggies, and it seems like you like every veggie also. I have to hide veggies. If he eats them in something like a frozen meal i.e. Annie's brand then it's okay, but if I shop for an onion, garlic, broccoli, cauliflower, etc it's not okay. I can't even put them in my cart with out him getting upset. So I make recipes that people say they are good for kids. Mac and Cheese is a good example. I have tried many cheese sauces, but he hasn't liked them. Cauliflower based, potato based and he doesn't like them. It would be nice to find one that we can have in the fridge for noodles, veggies, beans etc. Do you know of any recipes? Thanks for your help. Love your videos. I am still catching up with watching them all.
