Vegan Trader Joe's Haul | Our Favorite Healthy Products

- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- We don't shop at Trader Joe's super often.. but when we do we stock up on our favorite vegan, oil-free items. We definitely have some must-have favorites that we pick up when we go there, but there are also some little random things that are just special treats to get here and there. While Trader Joe's has a multitude of vegan products, not all of them are healthy. All of the items we chose were at the very least oil-free. We even gave some new ones a shot and threw a bunch together to make lunch at the end! Let us know what your favorites are in the comments below.

I have leaned towards junk food vegan but I have to say that you two make whole food, plant based, oil-free vegan seem super approachable and even kinda joyful and I feel inspired.
My daughter told me to heat non stick skillet and place the jicama wraps on it then flip when very slightly browned... DELICIOUS!! Made ALL the difference with the jicama wraps for me. I eat 3-4 for a lunch!! Thanks for the video!! LOVED your ideas!!
The lavash is great for vegan pizza. It gets really crispy in the oven. I love Trader Joe’s.
We were talking about that, I cannot wait to try that!
Thanks! I will try that. I use pita bread in my air fryer for vegan pizza. Mushrooms and olives are my favorite toppings. Don't forget the nooch.
Agreed! I tried it after watching this when they mentioned it and it was a HUGE hit in our house!
@lionsheart26 Hi! What temp and time do you bake the lavash and do you bake it at all prior to putting toppings on? TIA!
@@nadines7175 I bake it at 375 F for about 10 mins with all raw toppings on. That said, we have not used toppings like broccoli or carrots that could take longer. Olives, mushrooms, peppers, onions we have used. I also added a little hot sauce to the pizza sauce and it was really good!
Love how you didn’t just taste test, but combined into a sandwich. Wonderful! Looks so good! I would layer the jicama inside the lavash & hummus then add the greens and roll it up.
Just ordered 5 of your sauces! Can I suggest you sell a sample pack to try before having to order full bottles not knowing the taste? It's worth paying the price for full size health products, but it's a big waste if we don't like them. Just a suggestion. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
I think a sample pack of your products is an excellent idea as well.
That wrap looked delicious. A Costco or Whole Foods haul would be awesome for the next one.
Spread the filling in a thin layer across the whole lavosh rectangle, then roll it. Easier to roll and it will be like pinwheels when you cut it. Also good for quick, crispy stovetop (or toaster oven) pizza.
I love the chemistry you two have, so fun to watch
Was the duo rice “meet up” rehearsed? Lord, Dillon you truly have met your soul mate! REEBS ❤️ is just as goofy as you! Love all the ideas you gave us with lots of my favorites! Big TJ shopper here! HEAT THE CASHEW Queso DIP! THE best! Best with the air fried corn tortilla chips. NACHOS ANYONE? It’s my weekend ...making the wraps tomorrow with the LAVASH! ❤️ you two!
I will heat the dip! Also, Reebs is 2x goofier than I am. ahhahahah
Cashew Fiesta Dip is wonderful on top of a microwaved potato for a quick meal or snack.
I know you make your own pasta sauce but for people in a hurry TJ's has an oil free Spaghetti Sauce with Mushrooms that is really good and oil free is so hard to find....I just add some crushed red pepper for extra spice. I absolutely love the Eggplant Hummus so much that I can just eat it alone with a spoon.
Yesss! I used to love TJs but have struggled since going oil free. I would love a Costco food haul too!!!
Warm lavish in damp paper towels
By far the best TJ's video on RUclips!
Love the lavash bread for wraps. I warm the lavash bread in the microwave for a few seconds. I use my homemade (very easy in the blender or food processor) roasted red pepper hummus. I have used to buy frozen diced green bell peppers quite often. I know that some markets still carry them. I did a search and Kroger carries them. Check Smith's if you have one in your area.
Whatever you two are doing, keep doing it because it is working. You two look fabulous and full of happiness.
Love all the ideas! I use the Lavash bread for homemade pizzas all the time. Pizza sauce, onions, peppers, garlic powder, a few olives. So good!
I have been liking On the Border Organic Salsa as it has minimal ingredients and tastes good. I found it at Grocery Outlet Bargain Market on discount, so the only option was medium. The spice level could be higher, but I appreciate the good flavors.
I love watching the both of you! You crack me up ! Plus as always, good information. Thank you!
Try warming the queso dip!! It’s great !! I prefer over cold
Trader Joe's is a go to for my family. The queso I dilute with some water very little and add nooch. Heat it up and oh oh my 👍🏾
For those folks who don't like cilantro, try Frog Ranch salsa. It's available at Kroger's in our area.
Always looking for more oil free products. I definitely vote Costco next!
I always stock up on their frozen oil-free large hashbrown potatoes, great for veggie filled hash breakfasts on the weekends! They also have oil free pizza sauce, tamari crackers, bulk cheap maple syrup, and oil free chipotle black bean dip.
I make lavash crackers in my air fryer. Cut into pieces. Arrange for maximum air flow. 400 degrees F for 2 minutes, then rearrange to enhance air flow, and then 2 more minutes.
I love TJ's, I shop there for the majority of my groceries as they are one and half blocks away from my home. In any case, I was disappointed in the Watermelon Jerky, I purchased two bags thinking I would love it but I didn't so I gave it away. Of course, everyone's tastes are different so you may enjoy it.
Do more of these. And can you do a what I eat in a week or in a day video? I really liked the other one you guys did
i love the lavish bread..so good
I wish there was a love button
aw thank you!
I have snuck the cheeze and salsa into my son's (non-vegan) salad and he loved it!
The cashew cheese is really good heated. Put in the burrito!
Other favorites-unsweetened, unsulfered dark sweet dried cherries. Very hard to find. Also the Everything but the Bagel seasoning - good on every type of veggie!!
I love the soy milk and use it all the time. But I find I need to shake it up a lot. It tends to separate and sometimes solid material settles to the bottom. Not a big deal, but I think a good thing to be aware of....shake it up! I also really like the Cashew Fiesta Dip, though I like it best warm...I love it on hot steamed or baked potatoes (or other veggies), which melts and heats it nicely. I cook the Cruciferous Crunch in the Instant pot using the steamer basket for a couple minutes, often adding shredded carrots and chopped apples. Yum! I got the idea from Chef AJ... she cooks it for her husband for his breakfast and then she drinks the warm “pot liquor.” Just a few ideas. Great video, guys!
We had friends who would make enchiladas with those lavash breads - fill with anything you like, and they would fit in the big 9x13 pan really well, then cover with sauce of choice! Thanks for the showcase of items - there are some I’ll be checking out, for sure. :)
Good ones!! My favs are the Romesco Dip, the Zhoug sauce, and the quinoa stuffed grape leaves (but they're a little too high in fat). The black garlic salsa is THE BEST SALSA!
That eggplant hummus is my TJ favorite!
Love this video. Would love to see other store hauls also. We only have Wal-Mart and Aldis here but another town about 1 1/2 hours away has Costco, Whole Foods, Sprouts and Trader Joe's and we go once in awhile and is nice to already know of items to get. Also like how you whipped up an easy recipe.
❤ Trader Joe's! I haven't gone lately but I have a stock pile of their canned beans. I gotta check these things out! Thanks 😊
The two of you are so cute together!!😊I just discovered this channel and am definitely subscribing! I love the light hearted humor you bring to your video’s:)
LOL...you both are so funny. The lavash bread is perforated so you can make two wraps from one sheet! Roll horizontally and you can cut at the perf to share :-)
Those products look amazing! I wish we had Trader Joe's in Canada!
I am voting for Costco! Thanks for the info on the artichokes.
The cashew fiesta makes a good grilled "cheese" sandwich.
Thank you for the heads up on the hemp milk and the cruciferous crunch salad mix! If you haven't tried it yet, I recommend Trader Joe's organic mushroom spaghetti sauce which is oil-free and awesome.
Since you like Trader Joe's frozen roasted items, you might want to check out their frozen grilled asparagus. Yum! I also like their frozen Brussel Sprouts.
how do you like to do the asparagus? I bought frozen asparagus from costco but just didn't like the result when I tried to bring it back to life.
@@WellYourWorld Given we are talking about frozen asparagus and not fresh, it actually is pretty good - especially when dipped in a mustard sauce or a garlic hummus
Yes, I forgot about the asparagus. I served it to my adult family members and they complimented me and thought it was fresh asparagus.
MY GOD YOU GUYS ARE HILARIOUS! I love you both lol
The eggplant hummus is def my favorite. I’ll go there just to pick that up.
I love it too! So good!
They don't have it in NYC 😫
They make an edamame hummus too - delush.
You guys are the best! This video is full of useful information and soooooo funny too! Love you guys!
Dillion and Reebs. You lightly moisten the lavosh wrap.Like putting a damp cloth on it to keep it moist.
Trader Joe’s Hatch Chile green salsa has only 65 mg of sodium per serving and is my definite favorite. It’s delicious 😋
I'm making wraps next time I go grocery shopping!
I would recommend Trader Joe's organic frozen spinach. Sometimes it just says pesticide free. It's a 1 pound bag for less than $3. It's great to put a chunk in soups or stews, anything you're cooking for some greens. Plus think about how much you pay for those plastic containers of organic baby spinach, and they are not even 1/2 of pound!......Also, like their liquid stevia for a sweetener and their fennel and myrrh toothpaste.
The watermelon jerky is the bomb. You will finish the entire bag in 10 seconds. ✌
haha we have since tried it, it was actually pretty good. Not sure if I would keep buying it since it is just a little package but it was a cool experience.
Loved this video! I’ve been making your wrap recipe everyday for lunch. Instead of the wrap I’ll do a bowl and add red onion and pinto beans. Great easy recipe! Would love to see more fast recipes like this.
The TJ Sala Especial is the best...and spicy...
Rob Z 😋 I have some in my fridge now..you find it in the FRESH section for anyone who does not know.!
Lulu’s Mom true...my favorite anywhere!
Jicama is round just like the slice. You could think about using two at a time instead of one if it’s fragile. Jicama is great in sliced pieces too it’s a little bit like eating a sugarbeet only a little bit less sweet.
You two are so funny ! Cute cute couple . Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching Brenda!!
Thank you guys so much for the wrap recipe! ❤️ We’re not vegan or even vegetarian but a couple days a week, we love eating meals free of animal products. We played your video as we built our wrap, using identical products (except the grain medley, which is discontinued). How fun! They were delicious!! I added a slice of roasted red bell pepper to mine but hubby had his exactly like yours. We both loved them and we were stuffed after eating them. So happy we discovered your channel! ☮️❤️😊
Have you tried their frozen grilled asparagus? Love! Chef AJ taught me to put cruciferous crunch in instant pot with water for 3 min. Drain. Add balsamic, can add walnuts. Yum. Easy greens! I’m going to try your wrap! Looks delish!
that's a great idea!
Great video....Trader Joe's fan here too....for the artichoke hearts try Chef AJ's Mediterranean Kale which she does in the Instant Pot....OMG...SO delish! It's here on youtube! Yah, the almond butter is something I cannot keep in the house....SO dang delish!
Brilliant video. I’ll make it. I have about 5 trader Jo’s within 3 miles. I’m always in the go coming late, and I need ideas of meals of few minutes preparation. This is perfect. Thanks for sharing. Love this video & the channel. Bless. 💛👍
That's awesome! We love quick and easy meals here. Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for the support and kind words!
Warm up that cheese dip...give it a try. so lovely!
Thanks for all the shopping tips ! Good idea about sample pack of products. Thx you !
Thanks for watching, Brenda!
I'm on my way to Trader Joe's right now and getting everything to make that wrap! Glad to have found your channel, love the AZ Shirt, I have that sticker on my car.
Hope you enjoy! Thank you!
Lime juice! Great for your wraps
I'm getting this tomorrow! Loved this video.
So happy that I watched this because I am heading to TJ’s this afternoon. Now I know what to get to make some yummy wraps.
That's awesome! Enjoy Mary!
@@WellYourWorld I was so mad, they discontinued the Lavash. I can’t find oil free Lavash anywhere else.
You should try the jicama sticks. Yum, they're so good. A great snack. I can't wait to try the eggplant hummus.
HI new subbie here. Not sure if you meant diced frozen peppers at Trader Joe's only. But here in my little ol' part of Michigan our Kroger stores has frozen diced green bell peppers ($1/10oz bag) and Meijer stores has fresh diced green bell peppers (pricey but convenient, $3 per small container).
You guys are so cute together ❤
Why am I just now finding you two. One video and I'm hooked. I don't shop at TJ's much either. Only because it's so far away. Love that roasted corn. I would love that wrap too. You make me want to make a special trip just to get those square bread wrap thingy's.
these two are freaking cute! glad i found your page!
YUM--I buy a lot of those items already. I am definitely tying the jicama wraps.
definitely worth the try!
You can find the whole wheat bread and the lavash at any Middle Eastern grocery store much cheaper
good to know!
I am so sad I don't live near a Trader Joes.... I guess I need to chill the yeti cooler and take a trip to madison (2 hours away) and stock what I can fit in the cooler... We have an Aldi but it is hit or miss with what they carry and I dont eat the processed frozen burgers ...I usually buy ingredients to make awesome sos meals instead of processed food. Great video !!!
The wrap part of the video was hilarious!! Costco or Whole Foods food haul would be good ones I think ☺️
I've been doing those microwave rice bags for like 10 years.... lol. They are in any grocery store frozen isle in the Asian section.
Glad you both found it :) FINALLY.... LOL
Thanks for the tips 🥳😊👍🌷
I bought the watermelon jerky. The first bite was great. Second bite, good. After that I found it to be sickenly sweet. I like eating the black seeds in it though! They’re kinda cool. I probably won’t buy it again but you should definitely try it!
Awesome video guys
Oh thank you so much for this video. And couldn’t agree more about finding a tortilla without junk or oil.
Thanks Dylan and Reebs I have three Trader Joe's near me and I will descend on them like a vegan wolf.
BTW, you look great with a beard, but then I'm prejudiced.
I"m so glad you guys tried the jicama wraps. I check them out every time I'm at TJs but I've never bought them. I think they might be really good made into a sort of Vietnamese-style spring roll. I'm totally buying them now!
Oh, you and Chef AJ are simpatico today - she had a guest on her show who made Mushroom Artichoke Bourguignon. That's another thing to do with artichokes. Coincidence? I don't think so. Also, I wonder if the square shape of the lavash would work better as a temaki style wrap?
Yeah, try the watermelon jerky! It's pretty good
I bought those lavash wraps this weekend. Game changer. I got a Salad and Go BYO (AZ only for now), chopped it up with scissors, and added half to wrap with Sweet Mustard. Oh my....delish! Thanks for all of your tips today!
Oh great idea!
Really good idea to show good TJ’s products that are good enough to buy.
Thank you for sharing this wrap. I was looking for a replacement for the subway veggie delight. That looks like the same bread that subway uses. I can fill the wraps with veggies instead of the tiny amount that subway gives you. Some of the staff give you the amount of veggies that they would put in a meat sandwich but just veggies.
Thank you Reebs and Dillon! I literally just watched Chef AJ and Nutmeg Notebook’s Trader Joe hauls. I plan to visit one for the first time tomorrow and wanted to make a list of “must haves” to purchase. Your video couldn’t have come at a better time!!😃
enjoy!
San Pedro Valley salsa (local AZ based) is VERY good and low sodium with no added sugars. Natural Grocers carries it.
I’m writing this all down, so when I leave the Wyoming wilderness back to the Arizona desert, I’m stopping at Trader Joe’s in SLC and getting all that stuff.
Are fighting the wild fires?
@cheddar bug no but been breathing the smoke. It rained and snowed here last night and the air is clear now.
I live in Uzbekistan and miss TJ's! So jealous right now. That wrap filling looks sooooo good!
Make a guacamole and put into jicama for a taco. So fresh and tasty!
Very entertaining! I like when you toss the items aside!
My favorite TJ's salsa is, Organic Tomatillo Roasted yellow corn.
Yum, you're making me hungry! You two are adorable together,!
Dang! I just got home from TJ's and this video is up. Looks like another trip is needed. I got the Watermelon Jerky and my teenagers inhaled it. Costco's please I always wonder around like a lost puppy and it takes me forever reading every label.
I love the costco wander hahah
Great show. The Krocks recently tested the dried watermelon. Said were good but very sweet.
Please more Aldi or Walmart shopping like this one. I do not have trader joes,winco,sprouts. I have aldi,walmart,foodlion and a far away harris teeter ❤
Thank you for this...just made it and it was delicious! Yummy...and I might not have ever tried this combination.
