Trader Joe’s is one of our favorite places to discover food. Sometimes it’s mashups like the Buffalo Style Hummus or reimaginations like the it is plain and simple genius culinary invention like the Everything but the Bagel Seasoning which we sprinkle on, well, everything.
We’ve shared where and how Trader Joe’s sources much of their fun food products and even dished out some of the brand’s deep dark secrets courtesy of this employee turned whistleblower. But in the spirit of summer and healthy eating, we’re dropping a list of our favorite vegan foods at Trader Joe’s. Whether you’re a full blown level 12 vegan master or just flirting with a meatless Monday, these vegan-friendly TJ’s items will keep you smiling all week.
Matcha Almond Beverage, $7.95 on Amazon
Amazon
Almond milk on its own can be kinda bland. It works in smoothies but doesn’t quite get it done on its own, according to me anyway. That’s why this matcha almond milk is so genius. All the protein of almond milk with a taste you actually want to drink. Turn your morning latte into a matcha almond latte in no time. Buy Now
Green Jackfruit in Brine (pack of 2), $13.72 on Amazon
Amazon
Unless you’re a vegan living under a rock, surely you’ve heard of jackfruit. The fibrous and meaty tropically grown fruit is used as a satiating meat replacement for tacos, stews, and much more. Raw jackfruit itself is not found often in grocery stores but this processed (not in a bad way) brined jackfruit is ready to use in your next recipe.Buy Now
Miyokos Vegan Cream Cheese, $7.38 on Instacart
Instacart
Cream cheese is another food that vegans in the dark ages simply had to go without. That’s no longer the case thanks to some mind-boggling advancements in vegan substitutery. Miyokos, which is sold at all Trader Joe’s locations, is a personal favorite and while nothing is as good as the real thing, Miyokos, made with cashew and coconut, comes close. It works well in recipes that call for cream cheese, too!Buy Now

Thai Lime and Chili Almonds, $12.24 on Amazon

If you’re anything like me, nuts (almonds, walnuts, peanuts) are your go-to snack to power through that 4 p.m. peckishness. The only problem is they can be redundant. But sprinkling in some zesty flavored nuts, like these Thai chili lime almonds, is a surefire way to beat your nut boredom.Buy Now

Amazon
Getting the right texture for a vegan baked good can be tricky but these clever spins on the brownie are crispy, kinda like a Tate’s cookie. They’re fully snackable, and a great, easy, no-hassle dessert to put out at a barbecue or take to the beach this summer.Buy Now
