Must have TJs beauty products plus snacks recommendations

Hi everyone! I live really far away from A Trader Joe’s (Puerto Rico) but I love when I travel to the states stocking up! My parents are going for a few weeks to visit my brother in Colorado so I want to give them a list of goodies to stock up including beauty products snacks and must haves. Thank you!

Will TJ’s still have Christmassy products a few days after January first?

I don’t leave close to one and was wondering if the start of January is a good moment to go to TJ’s.

Biscotti lovers, do not buy unless you want to stop yourself from eating the whole container in one sitting.

These mini almond biscottis are so so good. I loveee biscotti and these have such a good texture, hold up well dipping in coffee, and has such a lovely almond flavor. Don’t buy them, or do, but you might eat them all at once

Grabbed the last remaining box earlier tonight. Crew member said the Roast had been selling well, and they were expecting more shipments soon.

For anyone else who's interested, a heads up. It's back this year.

Pro tip: How I Prepare Beef Bulgogi!

I warm the container up in the microwave for 5minutes as indicated on the package, drain the excess liquid, then place meat in the air fryer for 5-7minutes, and serve over white rice. Super easy, super satisfying.

Lemon Pepper Chicken Oven Method

The lemon pepper chicken only has microwave instructions. I would like to use the oven. Does anyone have a tried and true oven temp and time they use?

When will the chocolate covered gummy bears be back!?

Does anyone know if they will bring back the chocolate covered gummy bears? I purchased one bag before they were pulled from the shelves due to the packaging having incorrect nutritional facts. They were so damn good I can’t stop thinking about them!

First time baking the almond croissants

First time trying the almond croissants and definitely won’t be my last! Was worried seeing a lot of posts saying the filling leaked, but thankfully that wasn’t the case for me. It does taste quite almond extract-y but that didn’t bother me.

Mildly Sweet&Spicy Beef&Broccoli, Sesame Oil and Hot&Sweet Jalapeños

My humble meal suggestions.

I kick up my plain ramen noodles by adding Trader Joe’s Mildly Sweet & Spicy Beef & Broccoli, which I cook up using Trader Joe’s Sesame Oil, and serve them with steamed veggies and Trader Joe’s Hot & Sweet Jalapeños. Yum!

Love the Red Leicester Cheese!

It's got a nice sharpness on the front end that fades to an yummy umami nuttiness on the back end. Texture is very creamy. It comes in this orange wax puck that my son loves presumably because it looked like a giant hard candy 😄

You guys, I’m so happy the Thanksgiving chips are back

You have no idea how excited I am to have these addictive chips back. Stuffing/dressing is one of my favorite Thanksgiving foods, and the flavor of the seasoning is so spot on.

Pizza dough past the date by almost a month

Hello TJ friends. I bought the pizza dough and forgot about it. Not sure how that happened. Life gets busy. But the dates say October 11th. Would you use it? I’m craving it but will go buy new if needed. I just don’t want to waste this if it’s fine. It’s currently proofing in the oven as we speak to be ready by tonight’s dinner. 🍕

Ideas for an easy Thanksgiving dinner for two?

I’m going to have a baby within the next week, so Thanksgiving this year is just going to be me, my husband, and our newborn.

I’ve heard that Trader Joe’s has a pretty decent precooked turkey breast. (If anyone feels the turkey isn’t worth it lmk.) So I’m planning on that, along with mashed potatoes, frozen rolls, stuffing, and sweet potato casserole.

Any other recommendations for favorite easy dishes from TJs? Or Thanksgiving products to avoid?

Ideas how to make the Hardwood Smoked pulled chicken less dry? I added water like it said, even a few sprays of EVOO. I’d prefer not to douse it with a sugar filled bbq or other high calorie sauce.

Is the Brazil nut body oil coming back soon?

Do we know when the Brazil but body oil is coming back? Or if Trader Joe’s has a body oil that is highly comparable? Honestly that body oil worked so well with my skin I’m so sad it’s gone 😔
