Couldn’t resist the Halloween plants
I cannot get over the skeleton in the succulent bathtub! So so adorable. Pictured is the “bare bones succulent garden” for $8.99 and 2 of the “brainiac water root plant” also $8.99 each.

These have no business being this good. There’s this marzipan/ almond extract flavor that hits so nicely despite being a VERY sweet dessert. Chewy/hard real cherry bits for cherry lovers. Extremely crumbly, somewhat snappy texture. Jeff Bridges Doppelgänger was saying something to his lady about these being perfect xmas cookies. I say don’t wait
As title says. They invited us over and are doing bbq meat and Mac & cheese, no clue what else because they don’t usually give a lot of details. They said to bring “vegetables or dessert or whatever you want”
I’m stumped, I’m tired, I don’t want to think too hard about this lol. Also don’t want to have to use their kitchen to heat anything up? Any ideas would be amazing and appreciated !!
Where have you been all my life. These grapes are out of this world
After seeing a post here about the autumnal harvest soup I wanted to try it and make a hearty meal out of it.
Their butternut squash raviolis have been a staple for me for years so I picked them up as well.
Comments said the soup wad sweet so I cut that with half a tube of their chorizo and garbanzo beans.
I browned some butter, set aside.
Boiled salted water for the raviolis.
Cooked half of the tube of chorizo in the butter pot.
Drained and saved the liquid from the garbanzo.
Used half of my brown butter to cook the garbanzos.
Seasoned with garlic salt, onion powder, rosemary & thyme.
Added the liquid from garbanzo beans and added the chorizo.
Added the rest of the browned butter.
Added the autumn soup and warmed that up.
Used a little bit of reserved ravioli water, about a half of cup to soup.
Added the raviolis at the end and enjoyed!!!!
If I had it, I would have added half a bag of fresh spinach!
Plated and topped with a cheese blend I had in my fridge!
Would definitely make this again!!!!
This mix was so easy to make, and the cookies are so good! The spice blend is very warm, the cinnamon sugar coating gets crisp in the oven, and the center of the cookie is soft and just dense enough for a good bite.
The instructions say to use two tablespoons of dough per cookie, but I used a scant tablespoon each and got 24 cookies.
I hope it's still on shelves next TJs trip, I need to get more!
Wanted a hearty snack and saw this in the cupboard. Was a great combo, 9/10.
Nothing else needed, put both into a bowl, including the olive oil. Warmed it up in the microwave (stovetop would probably be even better).
Eat and enjoy. 46 grams of protein. The hardwood smoke in the trout gives it a nice smoky barbeque flavor. if you break up the trout into smaller chunks you could probably have this as a hot dip for some crackers or bread.
Trader Joe’s snickerdoodle cookies are really good, so I went there last night to buy a box for a new mom. She hasn’t yet left the hospital but wanted some snickerdoodle cookies when she got home. They were out! 😱 They made a product hold tag for me and said I could pick them up this morning at the desk.
I went to the desk, asked for the cookies, shared that they were a special request from a new mom, and the crew member at the desk said they won’t change me for the cookies… that it would be their gift to the new mom. 🥰
The new Mini Pumpkin Ginger Scones are SO good! I bake them for 13 minutes, slightly less than the box states. They’re great on their own (pic 2), but even better with the new Pumpkin and Spice Caramel Sauce and the Apple Pie Spread (pic 3).
I bake two at a time in my countertop convection oven and they’re the perfect snack! I’ve already stocked a couple of extra boxes in my freezer lol.
Looking for TJs products that I could use for my 1 year old's meals (not just snacks). Criteria are:
- Finger-food friendly (since she can't yet use a fork)
- Relatively non-messy (nothing super wet or saucy that I'll have to scrub out of my couch when she flings it)
- Not extremely crunchy (no molars yet) or spicy (flavorful is fine, just not super hot)
For example, I am planning to pick up some of the fresh ravioli, and the frozen salmon burgers that I can cut up for her. Any other suggestions? For someone so tiny she can pack away a lot of food!
Any tips?
I made a cauliflower gnocchi skillet recipe that calls for tomato sauce, I used the autumnal harvest creamy pasta sauce for a seasonal variation and it was delightful! The cheese sprinkled on top gets so melty under the broiler. I used a full cup of cheese instead of half a cup and it was perfect but I also love things really cheesy.
