Tasty Trader Joes Tips

1. Orange Chicken Salad
   I use a 1/2 bag of Trader Joes orange chicken and a 1/2 bag of coleslaw mix in the fridge. I cooked the chicken as directed. Heated the sauce for 30 seconds in the microwave with fresh minced garlic and ginger (to your tase preference) and a splash of soy sauce. I tossed half the coleslaw mix in the sauce, topped with chicken and some peanuts and it was delicious.
2. Goat Cheese and Dried Cherry Nice cream — fold in 1/2 a log of goat cheese with a 1/3 cup of chopped dried cherries and a splash of vanilla into a cup of frozen blended bananas. Amazing (inspired by Jeni’s in Atlanta)
3. Add Trader Joes Dolmas to level up your next Greek Salad
4. Add Trader Joes Fontina to your next quick mac and cheese for some next level awesomeness
5. Use Trader Joes eggs and potatoes for an affordable and versatile Frittata
