New stuff at Trader Joe's - 2nd post of the day (that's how important it is!)

I just went to Trader Joe's at lunch and they have a ton of new things out. I'm in Atlanta and not sure if it's exactly the same everywhere but it might be helpful for some!

Here's what I found:

Quick Cook Steel Cut Oats - it says they've perfected a process leaving the grain intact and are as healthful as the long cook variety. $2.99 24oz. canister

Chickenless Pulled "chicken" in BBQ Sauce. 2 grams of fat and 17 grams of protein! $3.49 16oz tub.

Mangolicious - fresh-frozen mangoes, raspberries and blueberries. I feel a smoothie coming on! $2.69 16oz

Reduced Fat Fish Sticks - not my thing but great if you have kids. $4.99 24 fish sticks

Organic Kiwi Fruit - $2.49 lb.

Shredded Lite Mozzarella - 50% less fat and 40% less calories. $3.99 12oz pouch

Just a Handful Raw Unsalted Almonds - packed in 13 small "handful size" bags. Only 50¢ more than a regular pound bag @ $4.99

Sun Dried Tomato and Basil Chicken Tenders - pre-marinated for cooking any way you like. I can see this in a salad with some fresh mozz. $4.49 pound

100% Whole Wheat Tuscan Pane - no preservatives or conditioners $2.79 26oz loaf

Marinated Wild White Salmon Fillets - this is dinner tonight! $7.99 pound

Crunchy Valencia Peanut Butter with Flaxseeds - bought it and can't wait to try it! $2.99 6oz. jar

There were a lot of healthier options than there have been recently so I wanted to share with anyone who worships Trader Joe as much as I do :)

  1. Tina,

    Thanks for all the great tips on Trader Joes. I just recently discovered TJ here in Cincinnati. I was there today and picked up orange chicken and the buffalo jerky. I also love the kettle cooked chips that have reduced salt. I am going to copy your list and do some shopping at Trader Joes tomorrow. I hope all is well in your world!!!
