Buffalo Ranch Chopped Salad

The crisp, fresh nature of Trader Joe's Buffalo Ranch Chopped Salad makes it ideal for that hot summer day when you don’t want to cook, but still want interesting flavors to pique your palate. And, it’s enough for a couple people—or more if you’re enjoying it as a side. Top it with crispy chicken breast or grilled tofu for a satisfying lunch or quick dinner.

Honey Aleppo Shrimp

Trader Joe's Honey Aleppo Sauce is sweet, savory, tangy, and slightly spicy. It brings the kind of heat that’s subtle at first, with tangy overtones from red wine vinegar. That heat builds in the most nuanced of ways, and while this Sauce is never house-on-fire hot, it delivers robust flavor and a focused intensity that will give your grilled meats, your salad dressings, shrimp & rice, and even your crudités a new spin you’ll find yourself going back to again and again.

Easy Bolognese-y

In need of a comforting concoction to beat the dinner doldrums? Look no further than a warm bowl of al dente Trader Joe's pasta topped with savory meat sauce. This recipe relies on pantry fridge basics (namely, noodles, sauce, meat, and veggies), so feel free to substitute with whatever you’ve got on hand. Enjoy the finished dish as-is, or lean into the checkered tablecloth restaurant vibe and serve with garlic bread and a glass of Grifone Sangiovese.

Pantry Pasta

Think you don’t have enough ingredients on-hand for a delicious, make-it-in-minutes meal? Think again. If you’ve got pasta, a can of fish, garlic, olive oil some spices—then you’ve got Trader Joe's pantry pasta! We used farfalle tuna in ours, but virtually any version of each ingredient will do. Improvise, improvise, improvise!

Quinoa Veggie Burgers with Avocado Tzatziki

Tangy, creamy, and totally addictive, Trader Joe’s Avocado Tzatziki Dip is the ideal counterpoint to crunchy tortilla chips and carrot sticks, and begs to be slathered on burgers, sandwiches, and pita pockets. Freshly diced avocado accounts for 30% of the recipe, with diced jalapeños thrown in for a bit of heat. For a quick as a flash, fantastically filling meatless meal, try it on Trader Joe’s Quinoa Cowboy Veggie Burgers with wheat hamburger buns.

Pulled Jackfruit Sandwich

How does one use Trader Joe's Green Jackfruit in Brine, you ask? It takes on a “meaty” texture, and, much like tofu, absorbs the flavors of sauces. Our favorite preparation involves cooking jackfruit in barbecue sauce, where it eventually shreds like pulled pork, ready to be piled on a warm Honey Wheat Hamburger Bun and crowned with crunchy cabbage.

Sheet Pan Harissa Chicken Thighs

The bold, spicy flavor of Harissa plus boneless, skinless chicken thighs equals a package of pre-marinated poultry that’s perfectly suited for the center of your plate—or better yet, a full-fledged Trader Joe's Sheet Pan Dinner! Just place your ingredients on the pan, toss ’em in olive oil excess harissa marinade, arrange ’em in a single layer, bake, and—bam!—you’ve got yourself a meal. And a hearty one at that.

Corny Chicken Poblano Ravioli

Trader Joe’s Creamy Chicken Poblano Ravioli is made from chunks of breast meat that comes from chickens raised cage-free and fed an all-vegetarian diet, with no antibiotics ever. Rounded out with mild poblano peppers and four kinds of cheese (ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan & Romano), this pedigreed pasta pairs perfectly with Trader Joe’s Mexican Style Roasted Corn with Cotija Cheese—it’s a fresh-tasting, flavorful recipe that can be ready in about 20 minutes!

Soy Chorizo & Cauliflower Thins Tacos

Perfectly sized for a number of uses — including as a vehicle for avocado toast, a tortilla or pita, or even as a kind of savory, cheesy pancake, if you’re so inclined—Trader Joe’s Cauliflower Thins provide all the structure and texture of flatbread with a fraction of the carbs (only three grams of carbs per serving of two Thins, to be precise!). Taco night will never be the same…

Simple Strip Steak & Sautéed Veggies

Trader Joe’s Organic Green Vegetable Foursome is a verdant veggie blend of broccoli florets, shelled peas, trimmed French green beans, and tender zucchini quarters. The veggies are organically grown, blanched & gently cooked with organic garlic, onions, parsley, and savory spices, so they don’t require further fussing to make them taste phenomenal. Add a crisp baguette, a strip steak, and a drizzle of Trader Joe's Aioli Garlic Mustard Sauce, and you’ve got a satisfying steak dinner for two.
