It’s hard to pick what we love most about Trader Joe’s. Maybe it’s the unrivaled snack factor, or the try before you buy policy. It could be the instant gratification of all those lazy-girl prepared foods, or perhaps the affordable party and booze options. As if those aren’t enough reasons, TJ’s is also ripe with meal hacks. We’ve put together 10 fresh meal ideas for fall with four ingredients or less. Your midweek dinner game has never looked better.
1. Caribbean Fish Bowl
Make your midweek meal a tropical hiatus. Trader Joe’s sweet and spicy Island Salsa is made with pineapples and mangoes and is perfect on their Panko Breaded Tilapia Fillets and Cuban Style Black Beans.
2. Loaded Butternut Squash Soup
There’s nothing better on a chilly autumn night than a hot bowl of soup… well, except a loaded version. Thankfully, TJ’s has done most of the prep already. Simply chop up some of their Fully Cooked Uncured Bacon and fresh chives, and toss on top of Organic Butternut Squash Soup. Bonus points if you use a Soft Pretzel Stick for dipping.
3. Mediterranean Lentil Salad
This one’s as easy as getting out your salad bowl. Pick up a bag of pre-washed spinach and top with TJ’s Fully Cooked Lentils, Pitted Kalamata Olives, and Crumbled Feta Cheese. If you want a little extra protein, we recommend adding a can of Albacore Tuna in Olive Oil.
