I love shopping at Trader Joe’s because they have good prices, fun products and some really great items made from real ingredients. And really unique & delicious seasonal goodies! In the Spring, I have some favorites I love buying.

If you love Trader Joe’s too, I have a page HERE with all my favorite finds, like favorite plant-based healthy items HERE and favorite staple items HERE and freezer items HERE.

I thought it would be fun to share my favorite Trader Joe’s Spring items, the goodies I tried this year, and favorites I buy every March/April/May.

Favorite Trader Joe’s Spring items:

Flowers

This is a Spring must-buy at Trader Joe’s! 🙂 Their selection is large and their prices are great! Tulips and peonies (they usually come at the end of spring/early summer) are two of my all-time favorite flowers to buy at TJs.

Dark Chocolate Covered Strawberries

These are such a nice spring-time treat! I love that they’re small and the dark chocolate melts in your mouth. They’re delicious.

Teeny Tiny Avocados

These are a year-round favorite, but avocados are especially good in the springtime. These are the perfect size for avocado toast or really any time you want a smaller avocado.

Strawberry Cereal Bar

Not the healthiest, but they’re the Trader Joe’s version of a Nutrigrain bar. My girls love these and they’re easy to grab for a snack on the go.

English Peas

Peas are in season in the Spring and so delicious. Steam them for 4 minutes and they’re done! Add to pasta, as a side, or mash up for a dip!

Blood Orange Seltzer Water

Something about Spring and Summer and drinking sparkling water. This flavor is delicious!

Avocado’s Number Guacamole to Go

Perfect for an individual snack (with Plantain Chips!), or to bring along for a picnic.

Organic Acai Puree Packets

I love that these are unsweetened and perfect for a smoothie or smoothie bowl. Add in half a banana, frozen berries, peanut butter & almond milk and it’s a delicious breakfast or snack.

Plantain Chips

One of my favorite snacks: these Plantain Chips dipped in guacamole. It’s so good, especially for an outdoor snack by the pool or for a picnic.

Les Petites Carrots of Many Colors

My girls love the colors of these carrots. They’re pre-peeled too and easy to grab and eat!

TJs Staple Items: Trader Joe's Pineapple Juice

Pineapple Juice

I love adding a little of this juice to tropical smoothies, and drinking about 1/4 cup with 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar to promote a healthy gut!

Just Mango Slices

I love that these are unsweetened. They’re delicious year-round but especially good in the springtime as a snack outside.

Cauliflower Pizza Crust

Always a staple in our house, but it’s especially great to have on hand for making veggie pizzas with all the Spring produce: broccoli, mushrooms, arugula or spinach. Yum!
