Trader Jaques Beef Bourguignonne
This is a prepared meal that is as good as any I’ve had. The beef was tender and the sauce was really flavorful. I bought this in Hanover MA.

Chicken Chow Mein
How I love the Chicken Chow Mein. For $3.69 I get a huge portion. The cover says serves 3, but the entire portion serves me just fine @ 720 kcals total and it’s a very complete dinner… I’m always hungry after the gym. This is very lowfat (6 grams total), but …
Sutters Formula Cookies
The cookies at TJs can be hit or miss to me. I avoided these for a while, afraid of a miss. I was very wrong, as they turned out to be maybe the best of TJs cookie selections. Sutters Formula are peanut butter cookies with chocolate chips. They were soft and …
Trader Joses Carne Asada Autentica
It’s thinly sliced sirloin of beef. It’s pre-marinated in a blend of citrus juice (I believe lemon, never paid that much attention to the ingredients), pepper, onions and garlic and probably some other spices. It’s THE best carne asada i’ve ever had and i’ve tried everything from regular grocery store variety …
Asian Stir Fry Vegetable Mix
This is a 1 lb. plastic container of fresh stir fry veggies for $3.99. It has green and red peppers, broccoli, red and white onions, snap peas, snow pea pods, bamboo shoots, bok choy (though not a lot), baby corn, mushrooms, carrots, and water chestnuts. This mix is really convenient for …
Hawaiian Red Sea Salt
I don’t know why this salt is red, but once you get over the strangeness, it adds a nice aesthetic touch as well as great taste. They also had Hawaiian Black Sea salt, but that was too strange. A very powerful addition to your food. Just a few crystals are all …
Ginger Scallion Thai Stir Fry Sauce
This sauce is really excellent. It has a nice bite to it with great ginger flavor. We made a really quick and healthy stir fry with cooked Chinese egg noodles and Trader Joe’s Asian Stir Fry Mix (found with the salads and veggies.) It has no fat, no cholesterol, is low …
Avocados Number Guacamole
My husband makes his own guacamole which is great! He also orders it at our favorite Mexican restaurant all the time. This product I found at Trader Joes is exactly like the one my husband makes without the work. It is fantastic served with TJ tortilla chips or mango torilla chips.
Creamy Spinach and Artichoke Dip
This is the best we have ever tasted. Better than any restaurant. From freezer to microwave to table. Serve with the mango torilla chips. Easy and flavorful.
