Are you surprised that I have more Trader Joe's Items to add to my essentials list? No? Me either! Let's get started!
1. Gluten Free Chicken Breast Nuggets
I'm not personally gluten free, but sometimes I like to try gluten free foods because I have heard that some gluten free options are better than the original, so I decided to try these chicken nuggets! These chicken nuggets are probably the closest you'll get to a real chicken nugget that's full of gluten. The breading crisps up like a normal nugget and the chicken is flavorful! I like to pair these with ketchup or ranch and even sometimes I cut them up over a salad!
2. Cowboy Caviar (Corn, Black Bean, and Pepper Salsa)
This salsa is addicting. Paired with tortilla chips, you could definitely finish it in one sitting. The corn, black beans, and peppers taste really fresh. There is a smoky flavor that almost tastes like barbecue. It is the perfect sweet and smoky salsa to pair with salty chips!
3. Quinoa Cowboy Veggie Burger with Black Beans and Roasted Corn
This veggie burger is full of flavor. I like to eat mine paired with some roasted veggies on the side or cut up over a salad. It is the perfect substitution for a beef burger. It also is filling like a normal beef burger would be!
4. Sour Cream & Onion Corn Puffs
These are just like "Pirate's Booty" but much cheaper. One bag is less than $3 and you get so much for your money. They are light and airy, but also full of flavor. They also come in white cheddar which is also delicious! They are so addicting that it is hard to put the bag down.
5. Mildly Sweet and Spicy Beef and Broccoli
This beef and broccoli dish is delicious. It's like having Chinese take-out available in your freezer whenever you're in the mood! It definitely has a little kick to it, which I love. I like to pair it with some white rice.
Let me know if you decide to try out any of these Trader Joe's items! Thanks for stopping by and stay tuned for more blog posts coming soon!
