Two Healthy and Delicious Trader Joe’s Finds

July 20, 2012 by Mom on the Make Leave a Comment

Trader Joe's Go Raw Trek Mix

Trader Joe’s Go Raw Trek Mix

It seems that I am always finding a new treat at Trader Joe’s.  And this past week was no different.

My two most recent finds are healthy and fabulously delicious.  One of the items is great for a snack and the other is great for dinner.

Love this Healthy Snack

The first is the “Trader Joe’s Just a Handful of Go Raw Trek Mix”.  I already love the “Just a Handful Trader Joe’s Almonds”, but this new trek mix, I like much better.  The variety packed into this one little bag is amazing and the whole handful of goodies is a very healthy snack to get you through the snacking hours.

What is included in the handful?

1. Raisins

2. Cashews

3. Walnuts

4. Almonds

5. Filberts

So yummy!!

Trader Joe’s Harvest Grains Blend

The Harvest Grains Blend can be a side dish or an entree if you add shrimp, chicken or lamb to the blend. It can also be a full meal with a tossed salad, as there is quinoa in the mixture which provides 6 grams of protein per 1/4 cup serving.

What’s in this special blend?

1. Israeli Style Cous Cous

2. Orzo

3. Baby Garbanzo Beans

4. Red Quinoa

This blend is such a nice alternative to boring old rice.  I like to make it with boiling chicken broth.  The broth really kicks up the flavor and makes the dish a treat.

Last night, I had this blend with a nice tossed salad (with red peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes and carrots).  Really quite delicious.  Highly recommend.  🙂

Enjoy healthy eating!
