Best Fall Items At Trader Joes!!

October 21, 2019 by Sharon

Run, don’t walk to Trader Joe’s and buy all of these items before they are gone!!
I was blown away recently when I tried these fall foods from Trader Joe’s. Why am I surprised that TJ’s has done it again with the taste and quality of items?

Every single one of these products is delicious!!
My son, daughter-in-law, daughter, and daughter’s boyfriend were here last weekend!! They all came here to celebrate my son’s 30th birthday. He isn’t much of a cake eater so I got all these mixes from TJ’s and had them ready to eat when everyone got here.
It was great to have a variety. My son even said it was really good for a bunch of  “pumpkin spice” stuff!!

First, the Butternut Squash Mac & Cheese- I didn’t get a picture of the finished product, but you can read about it here. The box shows that there are two servings in this package, but there are definitely more than two servings! Dr. T really liked this too. There is a definite taste of squash, but it isn’t overpowering and adds so much to the savory flavor.
The Pumpkin Chocolate Chunk Oatmeal Cookie Mix is heavenly. I would really watch the time on the cooking of this. I didn’t cook them for near as long as it called for. These are crisp cookies, and they were oh so good!!
The Maple Pecan Mix is unbelievable!! The size of the pecans is amazing!! I’ve never gotten a mix with the size and freshness of these pecans!! I didn’t make the cookies. I made a loaf!

The Pumpkin Bread & Muffin Mix was moist and delicious! The pumpkin taste was mild and wonderful!!

Sorry, I couldn’t get a photo before we demolished all this yummy food.

 I loved having this great variety for everyone to grab and try. All the kids really seemed to like it too!!

Don’t miss out!! These are great products!! If you have tried other products, let me know!!

As always, if you like what you see here, please share on your Facebook, Instagram, or Pinterest accounts!!
