Trader Joe’s health finds

Trader Joe’s has actually been killing it in the clean eating department lately! I’ve been noticing that all the products I have been picking up from Whole Foods or my local health food store, Erewhon, have been appearing at trader joe’s for a fraction of the price! For a while I found I wasn’t able to find snacks free of processed ingredients or GMO oils, but good ol’ Traders has been stepping up there game, and I want to share all the best clean eats from our favorite neighborhood grocery store

•Gluten Free Norwegian Crisp bread- packed with seeds, oats, and the perfect base for avocado and everything but the bagel seasoning! (Also found out our beloved Traders)

•Sauerkraut -Fermented foods boost the good bacteria in our gut and aids in healthy digestion

•Wild Salmon-Traders has amazing wild salmon, when often I wasn’t able to even find salmon that wasn’t farmed at other shops

•Cassava tortilla chips-grain free and absolutely delicious with hummus or guac

•Organic riced cauliflower (frozen section)-perfect base for a grain free stir fry! Add in your fave protein, spices, and TJ’s Mirepoix (hello convenient already chopped carrot, onion, celery) and you’ve got a fast healthy bowl
