Default Unbelievably Heavenly Veggie Tummy Warmer for Everyone

I know some of you are too far from Trader Joes (in MPLS) Welcome to Trader Joe's - Your Neighborhood Grocery Store
- but if you EVER get a chance to go near one, bring your cooler so you can pick up one of the best frozen veggie pouches i have ever had. It's Balsamic and Butter frozen Veggies. Orange pouch, I think. Mushrooms, red pepper, pearl onions, green pepper, green beans, all in a wonderful balsamic buttery sauce. To die for.

I slice a red potato almost potato chip thin. Sauté it in water till soft. Add any other veggies I like (green or red peppers, or zucchini. When that's all soft, I dump in half a bag of the Balsamic veggies and simmer till they are cooked. The whole shebang takes about 15 minutes. You don't need anything else with it except a beverage of choice.

I just had that and my tummy is soooooooo happy!

Cowgirl that sounds REALLY good! All I had tonight was Target brand Swift Mac N' Cheese. I didn't know Minneapolis had a Trader Joe's. I thought they were just a coastal store. I wonder if Denver will get some soon. Last time I visited a friend in Saint Paul we went to Whole Foods and it was the only one in the Twin Cities. Denver has tons of them.

Thanks! I go to the Cities quite a bit, so I'll keep that in mind, next time I head that way! That sounds really good... It sounds like Trader Joe's has some interesting things... Things we couldn't normally find in Hy-Vee or the other grocery stores.

Wow! I had heard they had gone to $4 a box in some areas...sad, considering you are getting less cookies than last year, too! Ours are still $3.50, but we are pretty much in the middle of the country, so not so pricey an area! That's a cool thing, about the way they raised money to send cookies. Our troops were collecting money to send boxes of cookies, too.

That's so great! Hopefully he'll get plenty!

I still have a can of Chocolate Covered Peanuts from my niece, who's a girl scout. I just don't have a sweet tooth though! Every once in a while, I'll munch on them.
