One of my faves ways to eat carrots is to roast them with dill, red onion, chopped garlic then finish with crumbled feta or goat cheese 😋

🎉🎉 As always, great video & haul. 🛒 I wanted those turkey 🦃 patties, but my store said they can’t order them until sometime next week. They will be delicious with a thick slice of tomato, lettuce & avocado. 🥑 😋😋 I also love escarole & endive. Hard to find escarole here in the warmer months. In the colder months when it’s available, I like to add it to my chicken soup. 😋 Good culture cottage cheese is the only one I will buy. The Fairlife chocolate milk is delicious & creamy. My grandson loves it & so do I. 😊 Yay! Glad you were able to find the Amylu burgers. If you add some lettuce, tomato & avocado it might cut down on the saltiness. We always buy the sliced grass fed sirloin. It’s really delicious. I’m sure you know by now, it comes in 2 separate pkgs. so easy to prepare. Leftovers are good on a salad or a sandwich on ciabatta bread 🥖 That smoothie bowl looks really good. Yikes! 😬 That restaurant was beautiful, but sorry the food wasn’t up to par & so pricey. It’s one thing if the food is tasty……… then you don’t feel so bad about the pricing. Wishing you a great upcoming week. 🥰💖

I REALLY wanted to love the chicken burgers. I always add lettuce 🥬 tomato 🍅 and raw onion 🧅 to my burgers 🍔 but even still it was a little salty for me 😕 very flavorful though and I’ll definitely finish them over time. I saw another flavor they came out with - mushroom Gouda chicken burgers at Sam’s club but the sodium was 450 mg or 480 mg so I didn’t get it 😞 I love amylu chicken breakfast sausages though 😋 We have similar taste in pretty much everything else it seems 👯‍♀️ Have a great Sunday❣️

Love these hauls! What kind of nut butter do you put on your murasaki potatoes? I'm intrigued I want to try it since you get them every time!

@traderjoesgeek

Ай бұрын

Yay 😃 so I roast them at 400 degrees in my small countertop/toaster oven for 50 minutes to 1 hour until they become soft to touch. Then after it cools down and the skin wrinkles and separates from the potato a little which makes it easier to peel that way. Then I cut it in half and roast them up again until the edges brown up and caramelize. I have tried peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, & tahini. My favorite combination is peanut butter but they’re all delicious 😋 please let me know if you end up trying it 🍠🥜❣️

I have a medium to high tolerance spice level. For me, it’s just a mild kick. From what I recall, it might slightly build the more you eat it but very tolerable even for those who can’t handle spice. Are you going to try it?

I asked an employee about the mini insulated totes last week and when they looked them up they said the date showed release in August now, not sure if that's what it's going to be, but I'm hoping I don't miss out on getting one

May I ask… what is the reasoning behind your aversion to “natural flavors?” If someone can fill me in, I’d appreciate it. Thanks!

@traderjoesgeek

Ай бұрын

From my understanding, companies can get away with saying “natural flavors” because they start with a natural ingredient and then they can add whatever to that natural ingredient that can contain more than 100 chemicals including emulsifiers, flavor enhancers, preservatives etc and not have to disclose what they are 😕 Hope this explains it 🤓
