Nori Komi Furikake: 7.5/10 This seasoning is a unique blend of sesame seeds, seaweed, salt, and kelp powder. It tastes delicious on popcorn, sweet potato fries, udon noodles, or roll your sushi in it for a nice crunch. I would reach for this seasoning for special meals where I know it would compliment the flavors … Read more
Fudge Sauce: 9.5/10 This fudge sauce is my absolute favorite chocolate fudge I’ve tried! It is thick and has a delicious, smooth chocolate flavor. It’s amazing melted in the microwave and poured over a sundae, cheesecake, or over chocolate gnocchi for an extra chocolatey dessert. You can also put it in a pot or crockpot … Read more
Coffee Bean Blast Ice Cream: 7/10 Trader Joe’s ice cream has a reputation for being very hit or miss. I found this one to fall more in the middle. It was a very decent coffee ice cream, but not comparable to other amazing coffee ice creams I’ve had before. It was lacking a rich and … Read more
Kale Gnocchi: 6.5/10 I was super excited to finally try kale gnocchi! Compared to cauliflower gnocchi, I much prefer the cauliflower. To cook, I pan fried in salted ghee until it was crispy on the outside. It was definitely not as mushy as cauliflower gnocchi can be sometimes, but I found the kale gnocchi to … Read more
Bruschetta: 8.5/10 This bruschetta tastes so fresh for being jarred! Wow! There are pieces of tomatoes mixed in that are so juicy and flavorful. I’m not the biggest tomato fan, but I find myself digging to get the biggest scoop full of these tomatoes! The fresh garlic, onions, and basil give this sauce the best … Read more
Mixed Nut Butter: 8.5/10 This nut butter is all my favorite nuts blended into a smooth and creamy spread 🤤 It’s a blend of almonds, cashews, Brazil nuts, hazelnuts, walnuts, and pecans so it is nutrient packed and filling. It’s been my ultimate #whole30 go to this month with apples, pears, drizzled on a banana, … Read more
Savory Banana and Nuts: 5/10 Humm I don’t know how I feel about bananas mixed with onion and garlic. This snack mix didn’t quite do it for me! The bananas weren’t overly sweet, but they were extremely hard so you had to be careful eating them. The garlic and onion powder was layered thick on … Read more
Japanese Style Fried Rice: 7.5/10 I liked this rice better than the chicken fried rice. It’s a delicious #friedrice that has deep fried #tofu , thin strips of seaweed, edamame, carrots, and a soy sauce/sake/rice wine sauce. It’s a great balance of savory with a little sweetness. I cooked this up with a fried egg … Read more
Freeze Dried Blueberries: 7/10 These are a great option for a quick snack, healthy snack. They taste like crunchy, ripe blueberries. The biggest drawback for these, is the dark blue #blueberries get stuck in your teeth easily and turn your mouth blue! Not an ideal #snack to be eaten in public or at work. Compared … Read more
Wasabi Roasted Seaweed: 4/10 Very disappointed with this snack 😭 First off, I love roasted #seaweed , and I love wasabi! I thought this was going to be delicious, but to me, it didn’t taste like #wasabi (though they are spicy), and whatever flavoring they put on it, masked the seaweed taste too much. I’m … Read more
