About a month ago, the freezer in our garage just decided to stop working and we had to throw everything out. The only things I keep in the freezer in the kitchen are things for the kids, frozen fruit and frozen vegetables. So, we basically have no frozen food, per se, grocery store. We went to the grocery store anyway. So, I went to Trader Joe’s to restock on some of our favorite frozen stuff. Let me show youall what I got. First things first, these dumplings. And I think the pork is actually better than the chicken. These mac and cheeses, they cook in like 2 and 1/2 minutes, and me and the kids love them. There’s no explanation needed here. None. Absolutely none. Not my favorite, but they’re easy and the kids love them. It’s perfect for a quick dinner. But this pasta, on the other hand, I love this pasta. This is actually really good. And for me to say that, it’s good. There are two dinner items from the freezer section at Trader Joe’s, and I never see anybody talking about them. Okay, can y’all keep them a secret? Because just please keep them a secret. I’m going to tell y’all, we’ll keep it a secret. Everyone talks about the orange chicken. Nobody talks about this one. Okay, thank you later. And this one, when I tell you it tastes like actual takeout. Yes, honey. It tastes like takeout. I always like to keep a box of these on hand. Not the best frozen pizza, but it’ll do. Oh, and then this pizza, too, which it’s not actually a pizza. It’s like a puff pastry pizza. I got to pop all these in my freezer. Let me know what’s your favorite frozen food item from Trader Joe’s. I’ll talk to you’all later. Bye.

  1. the mushroom and truffle flatbread! also the potstickers you got are always a must! and the pupusas are so yummy as well as the arepas!

  2. I love their hash browns and the pork dumplings. I can't keep them stocked in my house cause my kids fight over them. I also love their chicken fried rice on days where I need a quick meal

  3. Pork gyoza, yes. The teriyaki chicken is a staple for me to add cooked veg to, to toss into a salad, to eat with rice, etc.

  4. Finally somebody on social media who appreciates the superiority of the pork gyoza at trader Joe's the traditional way of cooking them is fantastic but you have to try them completely crispy all the way around they are to die for

  5. Karissa! The teriyaki pineapple meatballs that they sell are so delicious. Pop them in your air fryer and pop them in your mouth. They’re so yummy. Your kids are gonna love them.

  6. We love the pot stickers, garlic naan bread, asparagus risotto & jasmine rice. The Soyaki is a must with the pot stickers too! Every time I go there, I buy!

  7. I love their chicken fried rice, green chili and cheese tamales, and the chicken teriyaki. My sister's favorite is the spicy shrimp fried rice. These aren't frozen but now I'm craving the dark chocolate lacy cookies😅

  8. I buy the chicken pot sticker but I'll try tge pork n I cook them in vegetable broth w baby bok choy or spinach n ramen noodles everything in one pot n you get a great noodle soup

  9. I really like the roasted garlic pesto pizza like its not my favorite thing but its really good. Also really love the butternut squash mac and cheese. I think my favorite thing would have to be the beef bulgogi they have its so good that with the japchae super easy weeknight meal
