Trader Joe's GF Products- Round up of Faves

Trader Joe's is probably one of my favorite places to shop. This is for a number of reasons. Yes, there's the fun "tropical", friendly atmosphere. But, what really pulls me in is the exciting feeling of the GF scavenger hunt. Each time I go I find a new delicious option! Here are a few of my favorite GF Trader Joe offerings.

Everything Bagels- Not only does Trader Joe's have some of the best GF bread I've found, they also carry GF bagels! Their GF Everything bagels, in particular, are fantastic! Load them up with some cream cheese and you've got yourself a real treat!

Cauliflower Gnocchi- Ok, this is probably one of my favorite finds in the store! A. it's super healthy and B. you can prepare it so many different ways! Ignore the directions on the back of the bag though and try pan-frying it with some coconut oil and some other favorite sauces/seasonings. Add some veggies and you've got yourself a nutritious and delicious meal.

Tamales- These are a great easy lunch option. There's a range of offerings- cheese and pepper, beef, chicken and cheese etc. Grab a few, stick them in the freezer and then just heat in the microwave for a few minutes when you're ready to eat. Delicioso!

Grecian Style Eggplant with Tomatoes & Onions and Dolmas- These are amazing!! Not only are they super convenient, they taste great! I load up on these and eat them for lunch with some crackers. I love that they come with the pull tab for opening so I can even toss them in my bag to bring for lunch at work.

3 Seed Beet Crackers and 3 Seed Sweet Potato Crackers- I'm always looking for crackers that have a more nutritious punch rather than just empty calories. These are great because they have a full serving of vegetables as well as being made with filling ingredients like chia, flax and sesame seeds. The best part? They still taste great! My kids even eat them!

Joe-Joe's and the Crispy Crunchy Cookies- Omg!!! Amazing!! Even non-GF eaters will devour these cookies! I love that they also have a range of flavors. There's the classic chocolate chip, but also more unique options like Ginger Chunk. They also offer their holiday flavors like Candy Cane Joe-Joe's! The only danger is eating too many!

Overall, the best advice I can give is to have fun exploring. As I said, I still find something new to try each time I go. I've been happy with the quality of the everything Trader Joe's offers (by far some of the best GF tasting products on the market) as well as the price (definitely more reasonable than some other brands). Enjoy!
