Hello everyone and welcome back to another blog post on ~Foodie with a Passion~! Happy Saturday everyone and I hope you’re having a great weekend so far. Today I’ll be sharing two separate Trader Joe’s hauls since I did this over last weekend and near the end of the week. So before we get started, remember to click subscribe so you don’t miss another Foodie Fun 🤩
Alrighty! Let’s check out haul #1:
- Cut White Corn – I always like to have this on hand when I don’t want to open a can of corn for salads
- Salted Edamame – a quick side dish when I make Japanese food
- Avocado – for the guac I made this week for my Copycat Chipotle Bowl. I also used some for my salad this week
- Organic Romaine Lettuce – for my salads
- Red Seedless Grapes – these couple of weeks grapes have been my best friend. It’s a 2lb container so hopefully I can finish without letting them go bad
- Sliced White Mushrooms – I used some of this for the Copycat Chipotle Bowl and I’ve saved some for the Spinach Mushroom Quiche I’m going to make over the weekend
- Strawberry Low Fat Kefir – I drank this just about every day; it’s my new favorite thing. You’ll see in the next haul that I ended up buying 2 more bottles 🤣
- Lime – to season the guac and Chipotle Bowl
- Laughing Cow Cheese – one of my snacks for the week with cucumber or crackers
- Whipped Cream Cheese – I used the last container for my Salmon Dip and Greek Yogurt Cheesecakes
- Heavy Cream – I attempted to make Alfredo sauce since I wanted to do chicken Alfredo. It didn’t happen. I can use this with the quiche
- Minced Garlic – Hubby will be here soon and he likes using this
- Black Beans – for the Chipotle Bowl and I also used them in salads this week
- Rainbow Peppercorn – this was the only grinder I was missing from when I moved so I replenished
- Fusilli Pasta – again my attempt at trying to make pasta. I ended up just eating Chicken with Rice and Veggies
- Eggs – for the week since I’ll be meal prepping some quiche
- Tofu – I’ve been going through 1 container of tofu every week
- Organic Romaine Lettuce – for next weeks salads
- Low Fat Strawberry Kefir (x2) – yup I’m addicted
- Wild Alaskan Pink Salmon – I might make another batch of salmon dip again for snacks
- Organic Spinach – for the quiche and whatever I don’t use, I’ll figure something out
- Organic Cumin – so I got a spice rack with prefilled containers of spices but they didn’t have cumin so I was missing this when I made my slow cooked beef for my Chipotle bowl this past week
- Organic Cinnamon – I’ll be making some banana bread for work
- Bananas – bananas for banana bread
- Tomato – and my tomato for the week
- Baby Carrots – Hubby will be here so I got this. I got hummus at another store
- Zucchini – a veggie for a dinner one night. Probably with salmon on Monday
- Haricot Verts – I like this thinner green beans; it gives it a nice crunch when you blanch or roast it
- Lemon – I’ll be doing salmon and also I wanted to do flavored water with frozen berries and lemon
And there we have it! Let me know in the comments below what you picked up at Trader Joe’s this week and until then…signing off!
