What I got today!
This was one of the products I saw recommended over and over again and knew I HAD to get!
Butternut Squash Mac & Cheese
THIS is what made me get in the car and head to my nearest TJ's! I already tried a piece and it was SO good!
Pumpkin Brioche Twist
I have made these from scratch and love them so much. I've been thinking about making them but haven't had the motivation to pull out the baking gear. This will make it so much easier!
Pumpkin & Spice Snickerdoodle Cookie Mix
I admit it. I love all things pumpkin.
Pumpkin Butter
My youngest has been begging to try pretzel buns. At $2.99 this was hard to pass up.
Pretzel Buns
My husband is always looking for a new salsa to love. It never works out. I think this might be a winner though!
Salsa Autentica
My husband loves Spanakopita. It's an easy lunch while he's working.
Greek Spanakopita
Friday is our dedicated pizza day. I can't wait to try this with their pizza sauce!
Plain Pizza Dough
I am hopeful that the pizza sauce is good!
Pizza Sauce
Listen. I HATE seltzer/sparkling drinks. With the exception of Sparkling Ice drinks I hate them all. I couldn't resist trying this though and I was pleasantly surprised! It's so good and doesn't taste like static like other seltzers! (lol)
Sparkling Tea & Lemonade
I couldn't leave the pups out. They loved these!
Chicken & Apple Recipe Sausage Style Dog Treats
What I plan to get NEXT TIME!
I had to cut myself off at some point but left behind a handful of items I want to go back for.
This was tough because I wanted both the pumpkin Brioche and the apple sourdough. I decided to try pumpkin first. Next time I will be getting the apple!
Sliced Apple Cinnamon Sourdough Bread
I wanted to try the Mac & cheese first. Next up is risotto!
Butternut Squash Risotto
I was so torn on this.
Spaghetti Carbonara
I love scalloped potatoes but don't have the patience to make it from scratch.
Four Cheese Scalloped Potatoes
Gah. I love apple butter.
Apple Pie Spread
I had a sample in the store and it was to die for! Apparently this trip was for all things pumpkin and my next trip will be for all things apple!
Rustic Apple Tarte
My youngest is obsessed with “hot” anything. I should have gotten these.
Spicy Chicken Nuggets
Again, my youngest loves anything “hot” and especially ramen.
Spicy Squiggly Knife Cut Noodles
Remember? We’re a condiment family? I can’t believe I missed this!
Spicy Dynamite Sauce
I had these in my hand for a minute but put it down. Bad idea.
Panzerotti Pizza Bites
I have had several people tell me to get this. I’m hopeful!
Japanese Style Fried Rice
My husband loves coffee ice cream. He NEEDS to try these!
Brownie Crisp Coffee Ice Cream Sandwiches
This sounds so good! I love to put some granola in my Noosa yogurt (pumpkin, ofc)
Homestyle Cherry Pistachio Pecan Granola
These would be amazing on a Thanksgiving charcuterie board!
Fall Leaf Corn Tortilla Chips
These would be great on burgers!
Crispy Jalapeño Pieces
They would be great with goat cheese or alone. I almost grabbed a box but hesitated.
Pumpkin Cranberry Crisps
Trader Joe Recipe Rec's!
I need a new soup for this season and this sounds perfect.
Cozy Tortellini Soup
This is giving me warm & cozy comfort food vibes
Risotto-Stuffed Delicata Squash
Enchiladas are always a good idea!
Dutch Oven Veggie Enchiladas
These would be SO good as appetizers before Thanksgiving Dinner!
