Friday Favorites #201: June Trader Joe’s Finds
Hello all!
Happy Friday! I hope you have had an enjoyable first full week of June! I have a fun weekend planned with family visiting and spending time with friends. I am looking forward to loads of sunshine too!
There might even be some ice cream on the schedule too!
I have a fun and unexpected Friday Favorites post for you today as it's all about a recent Trader Joe's Haul as I link up with Erika and Andrea.
My mom made a visit to Trader Joe's and picked up some fun treats and snacks. I gave her some suggestions, but she did a lot of picking out things for herself. She did an excellent job. Here's a look at our haul and my thoughts on the products
Creamy Hummus and Vegetable Wrap- I love hummus and often enjoy it with veggies or fruit. This wrap is perfect for a lunch at work or on the go. Plus, I love all the veggies and protein that are packed inside. It was very filling too!
Chinese Inspired Salad with Chicken- I love different tastes when it comes to my food. This Chinese Inspired salad with Chicken hit the spot with flavor, crunch, protein, and veggies. It was a perfect lunch option.
Fiesta Salad with Shrimp- I enjoyed this salad in the past and wanted to get it again. I love seafood and this salad is so fresh and full of flavor. There's a great mix of crunch and dressings too. Perfect for summer, when I can’t get enough seafood. Yum!
Organic Chocolate Chip Granola Bars-These are such an easy grab and go snack for busy afternoons. Plus, bonus points are that they are organic. I enjoyed granola bars all the time as a kid, and these are a great call back to childhood.
Dark Chocolate Covered Raisins-I love anything chocolate covered, so this dark chocolate covered was the perfect snack to enjoy after lunch or dinner. The only problem is that they are a bit addicting, so once you start, it's hard to stop. I keep finding myself reaching for them throughout the day.
Dark Chocolate Covered Cashews- Another dark chocolate treat that combines sweet and salty. These were also addicting to enjoy at night and with some fruit to make it a bit healthier.
Cashew Butter Cashews- I had heard rave reviews about these and had to try them. They are more on the savory side of saltiness, so maybe consider pairing them with appetizers or cheese, meats, fruits, and veggies.
Trail Mix Crackers- These are a favorite for my mom. These crackers are packed with so much flavor. You only need a cracker or to fully enjoy these crackers. May I suggest pairing them with some cheese or a jam for some sweetness.
Seasoned Popcorn-These goes along with the trend of sweet and salty. This popcorn is so tasty and full of flavor. I love the seasonings. You only need to have a few pieces to full enjoy this snack.
Pineapple Salsa- We enjoy lots of Mexican food in our house, so this will be a fun salsa to bring into the rotation. This would also be great to enjoy with crackers or cheese as well.
We also got some toffee chocolate bars, almost like a health bar, but better. But we enjoyed them all before I got a chance to snap a photo, but they were worth it.
Whew! That's a lot of fun foods and finds. I always love popping into Trader Joe's to see what's new. That's a look into my latest haul. What are some things you have been enjoying at the grocery store? If you are a Trader Joe's fan, what are your favorite things to grab?
Let me know in the comments below and happy Friday!
