R. Pitts13 Trader Joe's holiday items to try this season!
If you haven't been to Trader Joe's lately, you need to go, like yesterday. They have so many items that scream "HOLIDAYS."
Some/most of the Trader Joe's holiday items are seasonal, so you have a very short window to get them.
In order to navigate Trader Joe's successfully, you need a strategy. It's always busy, so make a list and check it twice. Also, stick to the list if you make one. There are always so many tempting items that you want to just add to your cart. Here are some suggestions to help you narrow down what you need to purchase. These 13 items range from spices for your pantry to thoughtful gift ideas!
If you have never been to a Trader Joes there are a couple staple items you must check out. Like the Jicama Wraps - perfect for a low-carb lifestyle. I use mine as taco shells for Taco Tuesday! Cauliflower Gnocchi - I like to take them out of the bag (still frozen) and sauté them in some pesto with lots of pepper! The OG Everything But The Bagel Seasoning Blend - I put this on just about everything, avocado toast, sandwiches, in pasta and I have even tried it on ice cream. I would be remiss if I also didn't include Unexpected Cheddar - perfect for a charcuterie board or on top of anything really, this cheddar has crunchy bits of parmesan cheese and it's under $5! This cheese is so popular TJ has even made spin-offs of different items like a shredded version and an Unexpected Cheddar Broccoli Soup!

Truffles!
Truffles are delicious anytime of the year. If you don't want to shell out the money for actual truffles or use truffle salt, this Truffle Powder Seasoning is a great option. It's a seasonal item so it won't be around for long. I may have bought two on this trip to make it though the year. I like to add this to the crusts of my homemade pizza.
