Testifying
Trader Joe's has a lot of really good options. So does Costco honestly. But we still love Schwan's.
TJs has bomb frozen meals.
Orange chicken.
Lasagna.
Tons of gnocchi/risotto.

It had also broadened my horizons with trying some Indian, vegan, and southwest foods.

I highly recommend trying their Indian foods. It's an affordable test run for those of us who never grew up with it.

Yup. Their Indian food is great.

May I suggest the microwaveable meals from KwikStar? The turkey and the meatloaf are favorites in this household.

Went to Trader Joe’s once. Needed bread, it tasted like 2 week old bread, nasty nasty nasty. Not been back.

I would agree their bread is worst thing they have. I have one four blocks away so I go a lot out of convenience. I have found 10-20 items that are best value and stick up on those…in my area TJ is actually the way to save $ sadly.

Not healthy but the area they crush everything is actually chocolate and candy, I’d probably pay $4 for a bag of the 99cent peanut butter cups, they taste like real pb, way better than Reece’s and way more in a bag.

The Amy’s Mexican meals are really good but hard to imagine they are healthy with so much cheese.

Those are severely underrated. Haven’t had a bad one yet. Although one did a serious number on my stomach one time
