I wanted to pop in to share some of my Costco and Trader Joes finds. They are yummy.

 

I love all things pumpkin - well, if it tastes good, lol, and everything bagel seasoning stuff. Trader Joes delivered on all fronts in that department.

 

So, let's hop in!

 

I'm kicking things off with protein. Protein is Queen. I always aim to build my meals around the protein, because it's so satisfying and keeps me full (satiated). It regulates blood sugar, and repairs/builds/maintains our hard to earn muscle.

 

 

First up, Sliced Grass-Fed Beef Sirloin! If you know me by now, I don't love cooking, and I can't cook a steak right if my life depended on it, lol.

 

Enter already cooked steak. I choose ease and convenience when I need to. I found this steak randomly a few weeks ago at Costco.

 

It's tasty and seasoned well, already cooked, so all you have to do is warm it up. Lightly grill it, throw it in a pan for a few minutes, and you are good to go! Both Jeff and I loved it.

 

We made sandwiches with it and put it on our salads!

 

 

Next up is a Roasted Garlic Cashew & Almond Dip. This was out for sampling at Costco. Darn sample stations, they get you almost every time.

 

It's delicious! If you love Garlic, garlic-flavored stuff, you are in for a treat. We grabbed some Naan Bread to go with it. It will make your mouth water.

 

Now, on to Trader Joe's finds. I so wish we had a Trader Joes here in Pensacola, FL. I stock up and freeze the items that I love if they are perishable.

 

Anywhoodle...

 

 

Trader Joe's Everything but the Bagel Greek Style Yogurt Dip. It's yummy too. I've used it with crackers, naan, and put it on a bagel. If you love the seasoning, you'll love the dip too.

 

 

Next up is Trader Joe's Pumpkins Bagel and Trader Joe's Pumpkin Creme Cheese. Both equally good, and the best pumpkin bagel I have found to date.

 

So, there ya have it, Friday Favorites Foodie Edition.

 

Let me know if you pick these up on your next shopping trip and if you enjoyed them as much as I have

 

Now, hit reply, and share any of your favorite fall foods! I love hearing from you!

 

Have a wonderful weekend!!
