Happy Tuesday, friends!
I have all the T words for us today 🙂 .
For this Travel Tuesday, I’m sharing EASY CARRY ON LUGGAGE!
You guys, I have so much enthusiasm about this post. So so much!
Make sure you pop over and check it out after you read today’s TRADER JOE’S MARCH HAUL!
You guys, right now, Trader Joe’s is EXPLODING with goodness.
I actually could not stop talking about it as I was checking out. I go to Trader Joe’s every week, and it’s always really good, but right now, it feels extra extra good.
I think it’s the perfect combination of St. Patrick’s Day + Easter + Spring.
I actually had to keep telling myself as I was walking through the store last time “you do not need that too, you do not need that too” because I wanted to put everything in my cart.
On top of my “normal” items, here are just a few of the extra fab finds I found…
These had Ashby Shull written all over them, so I grabbed a bag. She not only loved them, but I did too! They’re so unique and so good. If you love crunchy and you love seaweed and a little salty too, here you go.
I buy these every year when they come out. They taste like bite-sized Almond Joys. A few with a cup of coffee make me so happy.
Holy. Cow. This was my #1 favorite find. Wow! They are so so good annnnnnnnd…
…I bought this dressing for my salads (insane!) but dang, the pretzels are extra tasty dipped in a little bit of this dressing too. A really good combo!
Cookies, cookies, so many new cookies! I bought both of these, and they’re so good. This is going to sound strange, but the oat cookies kind of taste like the most delicious Shredded Wheat cereal with chocolate on top. Weird? Maybe, but they’re fabulous! And you know how much I love a butter cookie. Yum!
I did grab a few Easter goodies…
…delish (and cute!).
Plus…
And this was a new find…
…so I grabbed a bottle. It was less than $8!
You guys.
YOU. GUYS.
Every time I have blogged about a trip to Hawaii, I am positive that I’ve included something about guava juice in the post.
I love guava juice.
It’s a running joke in my family about how much I love guava juice.
I. love. it.
So needless to say…
…I was GIDDY when I saw this. G-I-D-D-Y.
I also found…
…this orange marmalade too. Yum!
These are new (a twist on the spicy ones they carry year around), and my kids loved them!
Easy lunch!
Speaking of easy…
…I was talking to Sheaffer on the way to Trader Joe’s, and she told me to grab their arugula (so good!) and…
…a spaghetti with meat sauce. Such an easy thing to heat up for quick meals.
Kensington and Ashby both love their Acai Bowls!
I especially love this salsa in the spring and summer! It’s so fresh and flavorful.
This soup was SO good! It’s seasonal, but I hope they keep it year around.
My family often has honey on waffles, pancakes, toast in the morning, and I love it on a charcuterie board. This one is extra delish!
These were Mades’ favorite this month! She ate these up (with honey) and asked me to get more. She said “they don’t even taste like protein”. 😉
And finally…
…if you haven’t grabbed a bag of these apricots, you are missing out. I can eat them like candy. They are SO AMAZING. Love, love, love!
And that’s my March Trader Joe’s Haul! Don’t forget, I’m sharing EASY CARRY ON LUGGAGE today too!
Happy Tuesday, friends! xx

Those Danish oat cookies are insanely good. Did you see the shortbread with strawberry jam cookies as well? Also insanely delicious
Mix and Match Mama says
I did!! I need to pick them up on my next trip!
Elspeth Mizner says
I did a Trader Joe’s haul last week! I picked up the salsa too and the salad! Plus so many dark chocolate items! And the garlic cubes are so helpful for cooking! I always ho off your lists for inspiration

Mix and Match Mama says
Those garlic cubes are game changers!
Emily says
That mango pineapple salsa would be so good on fish tacos! 🤤
Paula Hobbs says
Now we need a charcuterie board and a new Q&A video with Andrew & Shay!!! 🙂
Mix and Match Mama says
Oh we do, we do! 😉
Debbie K. says
Agree! I love those videos!
Sheaffer says
When I went yesterday afternoon, I picked up something I’ve never seen before… stuffed peppers! They look delicious, but I’ll report back!
Mix and Match Mama says
I will need a FULL report!
Emily says
The guava jam is such a fun addition to spring cocktails.
Mix and Match Mama says
MY. MIND. IS. BLOWN.
Susie says
So funny! I saw the Pacific salad and thought “oh! I haven’t seen that!” Read the ingredients and realized it is named something different in Texas than it is here in California! Here they call it the “Pasadena Salad” after a famous salad that is served in a restaurant in Pasadena.
Mix and Match Mama says
Really? That’s such a random, fun little tidbit!
Joanie says
Guava fruit spread & barbeque sauce mixed with shredded chicken or pork…thank me later 😋
Mix and Match Mama says
I am absolutely doing this!
Maria says
Highly recommend the salsa taqueria. I’ve been adding it to ground beef for added flavor.
Oh and the rolled ranch chips are good too. Very similar to a cool ranch dorito
Paula says
Hello Shay!!
I don’t comment too often, so I may not be a familiar voice around, but I read faithfully daily. And have for a decade and half.
I happened to be watching Island Life on the Discovery App. S1,E1… it was about a family buying in Nantucket. There names were Jason and Courtney Bridges. They were also opening a coffee shop called Handlebar Cafe. I just thought it would be fun for your family to watch and super cool if you know the cafe and family.
ENJOY 😊
Mix and Match Mama says
Wow! I know where Handlebar Cafe is! It’s by the bike shop. I need to find that episode and watch it. Thank YOU for commenting! Have the best day! xx
Kim Scott says
That guava jam is everything! I bought it the first time last year and was sad I didn’t buy a stock of it! Can’t wait to go get more!
Mix and Match Mama says
I’m going back to stock up! It is just THE BEST!
Bren says
I was so happy scrolling through this post and happily anticipating the candy coated dark chocolate almonds! Always a favorite here! One bag for work…one bag for my home office…perhaps a bag to share. I’m headed into town today where they have a Trader Joes so this was perfect timing. Have a great day, Shay!
