Soy Creamy Mini Vanilla Sandwiches

OMG! I love these! They are so tasty and tiny and just like ice cream but with fewer calories! For those of you that can't have dairy or can these taste awesome! I would give it a 4.5/5 stars! The only thing is they melt pretty fast and the "cookie" part gets kind of sticky and soggy if you don't eat it fast. Each mini bar only has 90 calories and 8 grams of sugar. For those of you on a diet for New Year's what a great option to get your little sweet fix! I adore these things, but hey if you really don't like the taste of soy you may not like them. To me they taste just like Skinny Cow Bars. Go try these out!! :)

Grilled Eggplant and Zucchini Melange (Frozen)

So I picked this up on a whim just to try some more of there frozen veggies that Trader Joe's offers. Overall I would give it 3/5 stars! It's just okay nothing too fabulous about it. Flavor wise it tastes like marinera sauce and cheese. Texture wise it's pretty soggy and zucchini and eggplant when cooked are. Again if your children like parmesan chicken or marinera sauce I think this would be another great option for you to try. I would say kids may really enjoy these veggies because they are so flavorful. If you don't like your veggies tasting like marinera sauce I wouldn't recommend it but if you like eggplant parmesan it's worth a try!

Creamy Polenta With Spinach & Carrots (Frozen)

Let's again get to the bottom line 4/5! Yes I actually love this stuff. I really like the texture it's super creamy and mixes up really well. I know that it looks kind of gross on the picture but wow idk why this stuff is so addicting. I tried it once at Trader Joe's when it was the sample of the day. I think if you have children this is a GREAT way to get them to eat some veggies. Although there is a small amount it's better than nothing right? It's so easy to make as a side to any meal. It goes great with so much! I would recommend for at least you to try it!


Butter Chicken With Basmati Rice (Frozen)


Let's get right to the bottom line. I would give it a lackluster 2/5 stars. I LOVE Indian food and I go out a lot with my friends to the restaurants around where I live in Seattle. I think there are some that are pretty "authentic". First, the texture of butter chicken was just not there it was droopy and more "liquidy" then I would have liked. Also the rice became very soft in the microwave which I did not like either. The taste was okay I didn't think the chicken was all that special either. Overall if you are looking for a really quick Indian fix then go ahead and buy this but other than that pass and save your craving for some restaurant food or home cooking. I am going to have to pass on this one.

My Purpose


Hello everyone!
Today I start my new blog about trying a bunch of different Trader Joe's Foods and reviewing them for you! I know while I am walking along the aisle I am always hesitant to pick something up not knowing if it tastes good or not. But regardless I love Trader Joe's and shop their frequently!

Thank you all
