A few great finds so far this spring...
*Pomegranate Green Tea {make sure it's chilled) - refreshing!
*Fish Nuggets - sounds sketchy, but the kids (and papa!) LOVE them...and less waste since they're so little. Serve w/ sweet potato fries.
*TJ's lemon curd served with biscuits or scones. Yum!
*Tarte aux Champignons (frozen mushroom tarte/pizza) serve w/ fresh greens & vinaigrette & their divine shaved Parmesan.
*Fat-Free refried beans (great alternative for kids who don't like spice) & a quick bean & cheese burrito
Don't buy!
*Regular {frozen} brown rice that is microwaveable-soggy & gross. Pay the extra $1 and buy the organic brown jasmine.
*Frozen potato melody - all different colored potatoes - strange spices, horrible texture.
Wine Tasting:
1. Liberte, Cabernet {not to be confused with "Liberty"-also very good but pricier}. This is a terrific bottle for $10 - you'll be shocked at it's fullness & the beauty of the label!
2. TJ Reserve Label (boat on label) - 1996 - Cabernet, excellent! $10
3. TJ Petite Reserve (aloha flower on label), Pinot Noir - $5.99 - great buy. good wine. Do *not* by another red under this label though, they're terrible.
4. Darian, Rioja Spanish Wine - light, $5.99. A decent table wine, probably better for a tinto de verano (1/2 wine, 1/2 squirt/sprite over ice) or sangria.
