So I love trying new restaurants/cafes/wine bars, etc. That's my version of being outdoorsy 😉 I just love the look and feel of a new place; the enthusiasm of everyone who is working hard to make sure your experience is perfect. What do I love even more than that? Grocery shopping 😋
I think it's because my mom used to do all the grocery shopping for us when I was younger, so nothing seems cooler or more "adult" to me. Or maybe it's the freedom and promise that comes with being able to select just about anything I want when I'm at the grocery store (nothing is too expensive, you know? Not picking up pounds of saffron over here 💰). Whatever it is, I always feel like I'm getting a fresh start at the grocery store. I get my old favorites, and I always pick out a few new things as well.
It'll be busy week for me at work, and also with moving into a new place, so I went to Trader Joe's with the intention of picking up mostly prepared foods. You can't beat Trader Joe's prices and I love that they always have new products. It's almost like they love being a grocery store as much as I love being a grocery shopper 😍 I've had the Tandoori Naan before (yum), but the cauliflower + broccoli and carrot + pea veggie patties are new finds. I'm excited to try the, and think the patties are an easy way to ensure that you'll always be able to fit vegetables into any meal.
I've also had the Vegan Tikka Masala before and I think it's amazing with the Tandoori Naan. I seriously rely on these meals because how else could I satisfy my cravings when most tikka masala is made with chicken?! These Vegetable Spring Rolls have healthier ingredients than most, and I plan on making them in an air fryer to ensure they come out crisp. The Quinoa Cowboy Veggie Burgers are delicious!
Do you guys have any must-haves from Trader Joe's? Do share!
xo, Glory
