With Love & Best Dishes: Trader Joe’s

Did you know there is a Facebook page dedicated to kosher items at Trader Joe’s? It’s a great place to hear about new products and get some good ideas of what to cook. The page describes itself this way “Who doesn’t LOVE Trader Joe’s? Join the group to discuss new and old kosher products on the market!” It’s a private page, but you can request to be a member. Check it out: https://www.facebook.com/groups/490619204420535

And while we’re talking about Trader Joe’s, here are a few of our committee member’s favorite items from the store:

• Organic selection of fruits and veggies (fresh and frozen
• Olive packs
• NUTS!! Like Roasted & Unsalted Almonds, Roasted & Lightly Salted Cashews and Blistered Peanuts
• Macaroons (be on the lookout for a Raspberry Flavor around Valentine’s Day). MUCH less expensive than buying at a bakery
• King cone frozen ice cream cones
• Frozen mochi
• Spa shampoo and conditioner
• Trail mix with the almonds, cashews and cranberries
• Everything but the bagel seasoning 
• Cheese blintzes
• Spanakopita
• Chocolate chip cookie sandwiches
• And a special recommendation from Leora and Isaac in the ECC green threes: Trader Joe’s key lime pie  (Perhaps *without* the blue playdough a la mode – LOL)
