Trader Joe's/Organic Products/Natural Products #1

I absolutely love Trader Joe's. It's the only organic foods store in town. I'm thankful for it and very glad I decided to make healthier choices with no chemicals/processed foods. I'm not 100% organic just yet, but close. There's so many new products and interesting foods to try. I'd strongly suggest trying it out. It's not as expensive as you might think! I've already lost 15 pounds eating whole foods.


If you don't have a Trader Joe's near you, some of the products/imitations you can find on Amazon.com. (Which will be in bigger quantities, as well. Still reasonably priced.) Or there are some organic products in your local grocery stores, depending on where you live. 


Here are some of my favorites/eat on plan:


Blue Diamond Almond Breeze® Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk, 32 Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12)- It's lactose-free, great vegan alternative. The almond taste is perfect. It comes in Vanilla, Chocolate, and Original. They are insanely low in calories. Less fat as well. I like using mine in my granola cereal, so good. Great for recipes, etc. (Trader Joe's or Whole Foods)






Cascadian Farm Cereal, Fruit & Nut Granola-This makes for a great snack anytime of the day and of course, your breakfast. It's so delicious and the best part-no HFCS! All Natural. My favorite kind is the Fruit & Nut, but there are several other flavors/products. I use the Almond Breeze Vanilla Vanilla with it. (found in local grocery store)

Kashi TLC Cookies Oatmeal Dark Chocolate-My favorite cookie. It has a kind of grain taste to it, but it's so delicious. Less fat than your regular brand cookies and won't feel guilty indulging in one...or two. Decent sized..bigger than Chips Ahoy. (You can find these pretty much any grocery store.)

Pacific Natural Foods Organic Soup, Creamy Butternut Squash- I usually get the Trader Joe's brand butternut squash, but this is just as good. The TJ's brand only has 90 calories, so this one should be around the same. Great taste. Almost like tomato soup with a sweet taste.(find at Whole Foods)

                                   

Trader Joe's Orange Peach Mango- My favorite TJ juice of all time. 100% juice. It has orange,apple, white grape, pineapple, peach, and mango. They also have the same flavor cold tea.

Trader Joe's Organic Brown Rice- Comes frozen already cooked. There's 3 bags with 2 servings per bag (2 cups) You just pop it in the microwave for 3 minutes and you're good to go. I like adding some organic green beans and peas. I will never make my own rice again! Eat this stuff everyday, very healthy!

Better'n Peanut Butter- Great peanut butter substitute. Has 85% less fat and only 100 calories per 2 tablespoons. That's HALF the calories of regular peanut butter. It definitely has a different taste to it. Took me awhile to get used to it, much sweeter. (found at Trader Joe's but other brands on Amazon.)

Trader Joe's Pizza Sauce - I find this sauce sweet and amazing. I use it to make tortilla pizzas and theres enough sauce in the jar for two pizzas! Love this stuff! Goes well with TJ's pizza dough.
