 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 haul from Trader Joe's. I spent $122 in some change so I will jump right in. Gonna start off with the produce. I got a bag of organic Tuscan kale and I plan on stir frying that with this green cabbage. I've never done that before but I've just been craving green vegetables and that combo sounded good to me so I'm gonna saute the cabbage and kale together. I got some lettuce and lettuce with slim pickings. A lot of it did not look good at all but I've been trying to eat a little bit healthier and have salads during the week so that's why I grabbed that. Grab some broccoli and I have never tried these kosher dill pickle spears. I usually like the clossons. I'm hoping these are very similar because I've been craving pickles so wanted some of that and then I know I've tried this a long time ago. I can't remember how I felt about it so I grabbed a box today and I grabbed some freeze dried blueberries as well. Haven't tried those before either but wanted to give them a try. Last time I got these fish sticks. Howard and I really liked them a lot. I made them in the air fryer. We are not big fish people but like I said I'm trying to do better. Trying to stay away from so much meat so I grabbed these fish sticks and we both liked them and then I've never tried this before either and wanted to give it a try and it says it's seasoned batter so that sounded good. Seasoned batter. Alaskan cod filets and then I've heard really good things about this coconut shrimp. Never bought it before so I'm excited to give this a try. Let me go back up here. I grabbed a couple of bags of frozen sweet corn. I grabbed this for Harrison that's our one year old it's I don't know if it's bamboo or bomba but they're little peanut snacks. I'm not sure if he likes peanut butter. I've tried it in other forms so I'll see if he likes this or not. I also got these smoothies for Harrison as well so I got the strawberry and I got the peach for him. I've never tried Trader Joe's. I've tried other brands and he likes them so we'll see. Grabbed some cheese tortellini for our for this tortellini carbonara I make and it's really good. Normally I get the carbonara I mean this tortellini from Aldi and actually Aldi was cheaper than this but anyway got that for that and then I have been wanting to try this. I'm excited I grabbed some. I love seasoning so I'm gonna try this citrusy garlic out and then I always grab a package of their taco seasoning mix. It is so good. The best taco seasoning on the market. I hope they never stop making it and this one package actually seasons two pounds of ground beef so there's that. I used to buy this non all the time and then I stopped it's frozen it is so good so grab that. I got these for Harrison to try out. I tried the mini peanut butter and he doesn't like them like I said I'm not sure if it's peanut better that he doesn't like or what so decided to give the cheese a try. I got these plantain chips for Howard. Normally I get the jerk seasoned plantain chips they were completely out so I just got him the regular ones. I thought Howard would like this pizza. I'm not a huge barbecue pizza person. Normally I don't like the barbecue sauce on the pizza but decided to give this a try as chicken mozzarella gunda cheese and red onions. Grabbed a couple of boxes of this mac and cheese there's actually two servings in the box and we both like this mac and cheese so it's a quick side for something like fish sticks or something like that. Got these bars for Harrison. Normally he likes cereal bars but he's kind of funny so got one box to try to try them out and then I just got a can of these Cuban style black beans. Tried them a long time ago. They're seasoned already but I usually end up doctoring them up anyway but as you can see it has bell pepper, garlic, onions, etc. red wine vinegar in there and then I love these bars and I usually get them when I go to Trader Joe's. They sell them other places but I think they're the cheapest at Trader Joe's and they were it was $1.99 and basically it's a Twix bar without the caramel so it has that crunchy cookie in it and the milk chocolate and it is so good. This was new to me I haven't been to Trader Joe's in a while. I don't know how long this has been out but this sounds like Howard my husband spicy and creamy alfredo sauce bursting with Cajun style flavors. Sounds good and I'm probably gonna serve it with chicken and pasta. There are no instructions or I guess recipes on here so it doesn't really tell you how to use it but anyway it sounds good. Wanted to give it a try. I grabbed these mini croissants and you do not have to let these proof. They go straight from the freezer to the oven and we both like croissants so I'm going to give that a try. Now these I tried a long time ago I mean like years ago because I think they're kind of expensive to me. Maybe they're not but one pound four ounces I think this was 10.99 and they are short ribs Korean style marinated short ribs so grab that and then oh I'm sorry I'm reaching here. Wanted to give this a try country peach juice and it has peach apple and apple puree and five other juices from concentrate so that sounded pretty good to me and then I don't think I've ever tried these bread and mozzarella sticks but I wanted to give them a try. I hope they're lightly breaded and not really thick like thickly breaded but anyway it sounded good wanted to try it. I got these from Harris and I used to buy these a long time ago too so hoping that he'll try them and eat them and then I just needed some more of their olive oil spray. Howard and I both really like peanuts a lot and these are the blistered peanuts so they're really really crunchy and I love these things so I grabbed that. I have never tried these before they've been around forever every time I go I always come up with a reason not to try them but today I decided hey I'm gonna give them a try so they look really good to me so excited to try these out and then lastly Howard needed some coffee he's been out for a while so I've never I don't drink coffee and that if I didn't buy it for my know he hasn't tried it either so hopefully he'll like this coffee. So anyway this is everything that I picked up on our Trader Joe's haul I hope you guys enjoyed it.
