 Hey guys, welcome back to our channel. My name is Andrea with Food and Mentory Adventures in Food and I am here today with a Trader Joe's haul. It has been a while since I've been. I found a bunch of new stuff. I spent $126 in some change, so let me jump right in. So I'll start back here. This is a favorite in our household. We really like these soup dumplings. They are a quick lunch for us or dinner. But I got two boxes of the chicken dumplings and two boxes of the pork dumplings. And then this is a new item, this Spanish style rice. It's frozen and you get two microwavable pouches. Now I do have a recipe for my own rice, but sometimes you need a quick fix and I've heard that this is good. So I'm going to be trying that out. Another new item are these Jamaican style beef patties. For those of you that don't know, my husband is from Jamaica. This is a new item. I think it's been out for a couple of months, but like I said, I haven't been in a while. So you get two patties in the box. So hopefully he'll like them. This is also something new. I've never seen these Middle Eastern style kebabs seasoned ground beef and they are that shape. So they're kind of oblong. I was kind of throwing around in there, but they sounded pretty good. I wanted to give them a try. Let me flip them over so you can see the ingredients. So here's the ingredients. So I wanted to try those out. These are also new. These little mini mousse desserts and they were frozen as well. And they look pretty good. It says chocolate mousse and then it has a dark chocolate ganache and then that shortbread crust. And then I really like their mac and cheese. There are two servings in the box. And sometimes, you know, if I don't feel like cooking and need a quick side, I just pop this a microwave. Also grab some of their French green beans now. Several people have said that they were discontinued, but they had a bunch of them at my store. So I just grabbed a bag of the green beans. I really love their chicken fried rice as well. It does have peas and carrots in there. Don't care for the peas. I always take them out, but love them. And you can make it in the microwave, but I prefer mine on the stovetop. This is also a new item that I'm trying out. They're gluten-free breaded shrimp. Now I'm not gluten-free, but I have heard that these are really good, nice and crunchy. We flip it over on the back. And so it has tapioca starch and coconut flour and it sounds good. So again, just wanted to give it a try. These mini croissants are a staple for me. I always grab them every time I go to Trader Joe's. And you don't have to let them proof, but they taste so much better if you let them proof before you bake them in their light and fluffy and delicious. I always grab cheese tortellini, so many different recipes to use with these tortellinis. This is a new item for me as well. I've never seen it before. Cinnamon roll drizzled granola and it feels crunchy. So it doesn't feel like a soft granola. Now it could be, I don't know, but let me show you the back. Kind of tells you what's in there. So it looks pretty good. Excited to try that out. And then this is also a new item for me, this unexpected cheddar cheese bread. So they have an unexpected cheddar that they sell, and this is just a spread. And here it is right here. Shows you what's in there, cheddar cheese, water, etc. This is a new item. They're mini chocolate chip cookies. And this is just a small bag. It's just a tiny little bag. I think it was 99 cents in their mini little, feel like crunchy cookies. And then I am giving this a try. I don't think I've tried this before. I don't think. But a cookie, a wafer cookie, I think it might be like a Kit Kat, I'm not sure. And then, I can't remember if I mentioned chicken chow mein. I really like to have chicken chow mein on hand for quick weeknight dinners. My husband really likes it a lot. Normally I add some extra vegetables to it, like broccoli or cabbage or something, just to kind of bulk it up a little bit. Needed some milk for my toddler. And he also loves these smoothies. So I got him a strawberry and a wild berry smoothie. My husband and I, we like peanuts and these are low sodium peanuts. So they're 50% less sodium. He, my husband likes jerk, these jerk plantains as well. So I just grabbed a package for him. And then I really like these chocolate, these little mini moose presents. And they have them every Christmas at Trader Joe's. Some years are not that great, but hopefully this year it's, it's still good, but I really liked them a lot. And then I grabbed some of their unsalted, organic white corn tortilla chips. It kind of got crushed up a little bit in the bag. But I like getting unsalted because usually I'm using or the tortilla chips I'm using with like a dip or something like that. So I don't really need the extra sodium. And I don't miss it in these unsalted corn tortilla chips. Love them. Trying this out too. This is sparkling cranberry juice. It is 100% juice, but it's not all cranberry. So it shows you what's in there, white grape juice, cranberry juice. So it looked pretty good to me. And then this is a repeat purchase for me. They're sparkling pineapple juice. I really like it a lot. It's so good. Okay, I've got some more stuff that wouldn't fit on the table. So I will be right back. Okay. So I cleared off some space. Let me show you the rest of the groceries. So I grabbed a bag of these sweet mini peppers. Now normally I buy the peppers that come in at the repack like the large ones, but these were cheaper. And so I decided to go this route, grab some fresh basil for a recipe that I'm going to be trying out, needed some kale. I'm thinking about making soup or something. I don't know, but I just grabbed some kale, grabbed some green onions because I just like to have them on hand, mandarin oranges because I just love to snack on them. I grabbed some meat for my husband. He talked about making some soup. So I just grabbed some just in case he wants to use them. I also grabbed him some Fuji apples, two of them. And then I just grabbed some organic broccoli. So that is everything that I picked up on my Trader Joe's haul. I hope you all enjoyed it. If you did, please make sure to give us a thumbs up.
