Lunch was courtesy of Trader Joe’s. Well, not courtesy as in they paid for it, but courtesy as in I keep plugging them on RER and get absolutely nothing in return.
Wait. I did recently get a form “thanks no thanks” email when I contacted them and suggested they build up their social media by employing me. Oh well…
Three ingredients: tempeh, peanut sauce and stir-fry veggies. I also suggest their frozen brown rice that takes 2 minutes in the microwave.
Throw it in a pan. Cook. Garnish with peanuts. Eat.
Today is National Margarita Day!
Plus it’s Taco Tuesday!!!

jessica @ the process of healing says
As at least 90% of my meals come from tjs, I’m pretty sure they should be paying me by this point.

tacolicious (hey, you said to.), that is an amazing stir fry. i must track down that veggie mix at my TJs.
Caitlin @ TPL says
TJ’s loss for sure girl, they should pay you for all the publicity you give! Lunch looks great and I am in love with all of the little cartoons you post!
Amber K says
There are no Trader Joe’s near me and the one that’s quite a drive away is suuuuuper tiny and has basically none of the “typical TJ” stuff I see online. Bummer!
Melissa (MelissaLikesToEat) says
I love easy meals like that. I hadn’t planned on a margarita tonight….do you think wine would be ok? 🙂
Kelly says
If it makes you feel any better, I plug TJ’s all the time to and get no thanks. I can’t even manage to win their raffle even though I fill out a ticket for having reusable bags every single week. They should employ us both because I think we’re their biggest fans…or at least give us some free stuff.
runeatrepeat says
Agreed!
Lauren says
Now who would make margarita day on a Tuesday???? Oh well, it’s Friday night somewhere! 😉
Maryann (The Balanced Bean) says
Tacos and TJs, two of my favorite things 🙂
Kate (What Kate is Cooking) says
I think TJ’s should pay me to promote their peanut flour- it would keep it from going out of business! I feel like I’m always telling strangers how much I love it 🙂
Marisa @ Loser for Life says
LOL!!! You crack me up! I also plug the bejesus out of TJ’s and after two years…yeah… nothing.
Amanda says
I want a margarita and tacos from Tacolicious right now!!!!
Lisa says
I know!! I keep waiting for Trader Joe’s (and Nike and Brooks) to want to sponsor me because I talk about them soooo much. 😀
runeatrepeat says
And Costco (at least for me)!
Erin (Travel, Eat, Repeat) says
And Thursday is National Tortilla Day so be prepared to celebrate that. My friends and I are already planning a Mexican meal.
Ashley says
Oh noo I just went to Trader Joes for the first time and couldn’t figure out what peanut sauce to buy..I was going to get that one but then decided against in..now Im sad because it must be good 🙁
runeatrepeat says
They have two kinds (I think) and they’re both good! Heck, all their stuff is good!
Elizabeth@The Sweet Life says
Tacos are so good–I always feel festive when I eat them!
Liz @ Tip Top Shape says
I love TJ’s tempeh!!! It’s actually the only type I’ve tried. It’s so good!!
Kristy @ KristyRuns says
I celebrated Meatless Mondays [I’m vegan, so that wasn’t hard] with tacos yesterday, but I’m pretty sure they’re on the menu for tonight, too. 🙂
Cait says
