08/17

I’m a huge fan of snacks! I try to keep my snacking on the healthy side most of the time, but then I have my moments when I indulge :). Here’s a list of my favorite snacks and desserts from Trader Joe’s, some are healthy and some are not so healthy ;). I especially love dipping raw veggies in the dips I’ve mentioned below. Feel free to share your own favorite snacks and desserts.

Quinoa and Black Bean Tortilla Chips

Mediterranean Hummus (great for dipping – crackers, chips, veggies). Best store bought hummus ever!!!

Edamame Hummus (great for dipping – crackers, chips, veggies)

Cilantro & Chive Yogurt Dip (great for dipping – crackers, chips, veggies)

I cant keep cashews in the house for very long, and dont get me started on blue corn tortilla chips with any type of hummus!! Instant SNACK ATTACK!!!

Trader joes does have the best snacks! I love their edamame hummus and dried mango and soy chorizo. The other day they brought back the edamame nuggets, I was so happy

  My thoughts EXACTLY…love those! My absolute favorite TJ snack though is the Roasted Plantain Chips. I was out there yesterday and they hadn’t gotten their shipment in. They told me to come back last night and I didn’t…I won’t be able to get out there until tomorrow by which time they may very well be GONE with the wind…
  
  Still, I’m grateful I’m back in a city with a TJ’s. My last house was two HOURS away from the nearest one. I would go once a month and load up!

    LBell…Lol…you sound like me when I go in TJ’s on a mission to find a certain product, when they don’t have it I’m all disappointed and trying to figure out when I’ll have the time to go back :).

  Angelina…OMG…I need to try those!!!!!! LOL!!!

I absolutely love the carmelized dip! Their dark chocolate power berries with acai, cranberries, pomegranate, and blue berries are amazing! Hmmm. Their sweet potato ruffle chips are the bomb too! As you can see I shop there too much. I just made a delicious homemade veggie pesto pizza with Trader Joe’s whole wheat pizza dough. Delicious!

  Mmmm…Nakia I need to some of those foods you mentioned :).

Those sublime ice cream sandwiches look DIVINE and I would love to trek to the journey of the center of those cookies, lol. Looks so yummy! On a healthier note I love edamame, cashews and dried fruit. I’ve been really big on sesame bars, I bought a bunch with me to Macedonia.

  Meant I “bought a bunch and brought them with me to Macedonia”

this is perfect timing! trader joe’s finally opened where I live and I’ve recently stopped by but was sort of confused as to what to buy since everything is pre-packaged. I just randomly picked up something and LOVED it which really encouraged me to do more research and try more things. Thanks for this list! Will be using the recs in comments also..
- Nikisha Brunson
  
  Awesome!!! I’m glad this was able to help you out for your next trip to TJ’s. I hope you enjoy roo08!!!
