How to be an adult at Trader Joe’s

We’re at @TraderJoes and I’m gonna show you how to be an adult and get fruit and/or vegetables with every single meal:

1️⃣ Frozen berries – this is such an easy way to get fruit in the morning. You can do this by making a smoothie or adding to your nonfat Greek yogurt.

2️⃣ Oranges – if you can take fruit on-the-go, that’s a major bonus. Oranges are a great way to do so because of the peel.

3️⃣ Frozen veggie mix – one of the most convenient ways to incorporate veggies into lunchtime. Trader Joe’s has a ton of options, I love the Fancy Vegetable Medley and Pepper and Onion mixes.

4️⃣ Carrots – love keeping baby carrots on hand as a snack. These can be dipped in a bunch of different things like a nonfat Greek yogurt dip or a pre-portioned container of guacamole.

5️⃣ Shelled edamame – high in fiber, high in protein, and a simple way to snack during the day.

6️⃣ Leafy vegetables – love this option as a high volume food which means you can eat a lot of it for very little calories.

7️⃣ Potatoes, broccoli, asparagus, brussels sprouts – all great options for dinner.
