"Trader Joe's precooked beef and lamb gyro slices take less than a minute to heat on a griddle or in a frying pan. We like to take a few slices of the meat and layer them on a piece of pita bread with spinach, tomato, and onion. I prefer the original pita bread, and my wife likes the whole-wheat kind. Then, we top off the gyros with Trader Joe's tzatziki, which also makes an excellent dip for crunchy pita chips."
"For an easy lunch we can prep the night before, we each add a Trader Joe's carne-asada burrito and some rice from Trader Joe's Cuban-style citrus-garlic bowl to a microwavable glass container. Then, we add roasted corn. It pairs well with the spicy carne asada - the roasted poblano chiles give it a slick kick - and the sweetness of the rice. The best part of this meal is that all three items can be prepared using only a microwave oven."
A married couple who are nurses drive about 35 miles at least once a month to shop at Trader Joe's for ingredients that make quick, easy meals. They prioritize ready-made and globally inspired items that reduce preparation time and suit a family of eight, including picky children. Favorite meals include pesto chicken, Italian orzo, and Greek-style gyros made with precooked beef and lamb gyro slices, pita, spinach, tomato, onion, and tzatziki. The gyro slices heat in under a minute. Another go-to is a prep-ahead lunch of a carne-asada burrito, Cuban-style citrus-garlic rice, and roasted corn; all components reheat in a microwave.
