Trader Joe's Autumn Shopping List
Earlier this year, I said I would post my Trader Joe’s must-haves. I…have not done that quite yet.
So in the meantime, I came up with what I’ve been gravitating towards so far this season at TJ’s!
Also, no, there are no vegetables on here. Of course, I do eat and love my vegetables, but I don’t really feel like they have a place on an autumnal shopping list. Just eat your veggies. But for the record, my favorites to stock up on at TJ’s are Brussels Sprouts, their frozen stir-fry medley, and frozen peas!
Honey Pumpkin Ravioli
It’s cheesy and pumpkin-y and basically just tastes like fall in pasta form. I quickly cooked it up with some chicken, sautéed kale, and roasted some carrots and butternut squash for a side the other night, and it was so yummy! Tastes extra good with the Autumnal Harvest Alfredo Sauce.
Candy Corn Popcorn
The candy corn debate is one where there simply is no middle ground. This popcorn doesn’t scream candy corn flavor to me, so if you aren’t a fan, you may still like it. It’s just sweet and has more of a marshmallow taste, in my opinion.
Apple Cider Jam
Literally tastes exactly how it sounds. Not the easiest to spread, but it’s so good that I don’t even care.
Cut Butternut Squash
Grabbed this to make into soup, but wound up roasting it with the carrots to eat with the honey pumpkin ravioli. Definitely will be going back to get this again and try it for soup!
Butternut Squash Soup
Since I haven’t made my own yet, I’ll stick to the pre-made version for a quick meal. TJ’s boxed version is really tasty!
Fall Zucchette Pasta
Admittedly, I haven’t cooked this yet, but they’re pumpkin shaped and have butternut squash, so…adding it to the cart was a no brainer after it was recommended to me!
Mac and Cheese Bites
They’re BACK. Perfect comfort food, and they take no time to make. They tend to sell out quickly, so if you see them in your store, stock up!
Pumpkin Bread & Muffin Mix
I used this mix a few times last year, trying out both muffins and bread. The pumpkin chocolate chip muffins proved to be my favorite, and honestly, this is like…the easiest mix ever.
Maple Leaf Cookies
Perhaps the sweetest cookies to ever exist, but these cuties taste like syrup and happiness.
