The 5 Best Holiday Dishes You Can Buy At Trader Joe's Right Now
Preparing a holiday dinner definitely takes a lot of time and patience, especially if you're cooking for a large party and making everything from scratch. Luckily for you if you're not much of a cook (or if you're just in the mood to save a little bit of time cooking dinner this year), Trader Joe's has your back. The grocery chain is slowly rolling out its holiday products, and a few of the selections are exactly what you need to get on your dinner table if you want to save yourself some time and energy.
1. Drizzled Triple Ginger Biscotti
It wouldn't be Christmas without a few gingerbread cookies. Though TJ's Ginger Biscotti cookies aren't of the human-shaped variety, they're here to give you an extra ginger-flavored option to get you into the holiday spirit. Trader Joe's is selling the cookies for $3.99 throughout the holiday season.
2. Sweet Potato Marshmallow & Pixie Pie Mix
It's not your mom's sweet potato pie, but this mix will allow you to make a dessert similar to it in less than an hour. The mix takes most of the stress out of the preparation by giving you everything you need to make a classic pie. All you'll need is melted butter for the crust and water and an egg for the pie filling. You'll find the mix in the baking mix aisle for $2.99.
3. Riced Cauliflower Stuffing
Carbs are so 2016. You've likely already tried cauliflower pizza crust, or even cauliflower rice stir fry, so it was only a matter of time that someone brought along riced cauliflower stuffing just in time for the holidays. Trader Joe's take on the Thanksgiving classic includes riced cauliflower, sweet carrots, and dried cranberries mixed with leeks, onions, celery, and "savory Thanksgiving herbs." You can find this timesaving dish in the freezer aisle for $2.99.
4. Fully Cooked Half Turkey
If you're hosting a small dinner this year, you can go ahead and save yourself some stress by serving a fully cooked and brined half-turkey, as opposed to the full bird. Each turkey is marinated in a brine of salt, sugar, black pepper, and garlic-herb butter before being slow-roasted. The birds are typically around 2.5 pounds, and can be found selling for $6.99 a pound in the refrigerated deli section.
5. Turkey & Stuffing en Croute
Thanksgiving dinner wouldn't be Thanksgiving dinner without the turkey. Or the stuffing. Or the cranberry sauce. That's why, if you're not exactly in the mood to go crazy in the kitchen this holiday, you can opt for this Turkey & Stuffing en Croute instead. It's similar to a beef wellington: A turkey tenderloin and cornbread stuffing both rolled into a puff pastry with gravy and cranberry sauce on the side. It's basically your entire holiday dinner rolled into one dish. The 40-ounce dish is located in the freezer aisle, where you can purchase it for $12.99.
