Trader Joes

Grocery Shopping

Things that help keep me successful often come from Trader Joes:

Organic brown rice (find it in the frozen section)
Reduced Guilt Pita Chips w/ sea salt - only 2 1/2 grams of fat per serving! Crunchy and yummy!
TJ's soy meatballs
Fat Free Kettle Corn - they have a package of 8 individual serving size bags which helps take the guess work out of how much to eat. And easy to sneak into the movie theater!!
Frozen gnocchi - not sure how this rates on calories, but I seem to recall that an entire bag was under 12 weight watcher points, which isn't bad for a meal.
Soycatash/Frozen veggies - a mix w/ soy beans, corn, and red bell pepper. I like to mix this with the organic brown rice, mashed up soy meatballs and an egg (or egg beaters)

Would love to hear from others who shop at TJ's for suggestions and recommendations.

I LOVE Trader Joes and do all my shopping there and at the local farmers markets. Some of my favorites include:

Honey whole wheat bread - so dense, full of protein, whole grain and fiber you only need one slice

Natural peanut butter/almond butter with flax seeds

Fresh shelled edamame beans in the cold case - toss in olive oil, season to taste (paprika, cajun, salt, pepper, whatever moves you) and roast at 400 degrees for 20 minutes, delicious!

Creamy yogurt cups in 6- packs - so rich and creamy, the banana flavor rocks!

Nonfat Greek yogurt

Soy/flaxseed tortilla chips in spicy and veggie flavors - great with hummus

Sparkling pomegranite juice

Roasted Red Pepper/Tomato Soup in the box - completes a meal with bread, salad
