So Tasty!




So excited that a Trader Joes was just built in RI! Before that, I had forgotten how to cook w/o my TJ staples. There was none in the state, and 1 opened about 2 weeks ago. And yes, I did go to the opening day. Crazy, the parking lot was slammed, there were no more shopping carts. For all you other TJ fans, here is a list of my favorites that you NEED to get:

Gorgonzola Gnocchi (Michaels favorite!)
Quesadillas with vegges
Vanilla and Almond Clusters cereal
Vanana Yogurt
Michaels whole milk yogurts (I sneak a bite or two of his yummy, thick, fatty yogurt)
Chocolate orange sticks
Truly handmade tortilla
Par-baked rolls (put them in the freezer and pull out a few when ever you want fresh bread)
Mandarin Orange Chicken
Chicken Shu Mai
Corn Bread
Basil plant for 3.99 (the same price as a little package)
Mozzarella Log
Mediterranean Hummus
Sweet Potato Fries
Sublime Ice cream sandwiches (don't look at the calories, just eat em)
Spinach Artichoke dip

Ok, so this ended up looking more like a shopping list than a quick note of my favorites. But i need to have them all, they are all so good.

Do you have any favorites I need to try?

I second the vanilla and almond clusters cereal. I was so sad to find out that Colorado has so Trader Joe's, so I've already been online to request one. That place is awesome! I love their Ginger Mango Chutney.

oh you know I have an equally crazy obsession with TJ's too... Ok, so don't forget to stock up on the Joe-Joe's before they go out of season (as does the artichoke spinache dip, I learned).
And then there's the TJ's kettle corn-- to die for. And...
Puffin's Peanut Butter puff cereal
TJ's yogurts in the tiny cups (so creamy, so rich-- way better than yoplait)
Rainbow ice cream
TJ's chocolate macaroons
Cranberry oatmeal cookie dough
Ultimate berry pie
Pretzel thins- everything flavor
And pretty much anything else you find because TRADER JOES RULES.
But seriously, the kettle corn. Go get a bag today.
