The pantry seems to be where all my cooking impulse-buys go to die. However, the exception to this case is anything I get from Trader Joe's. I don't know what it is about that magical beast of a place, but they have the most top-notch pantry products that actually get used up in my house. My Trader Joe's inventory is always in brisk circulation with these awesome (and essential) pantry goods, so do yourself a favour and stock up immediately. 1 Fire Roasted Diced Green Chiles ($1) Not as spicy as its red counterpart, these green chilis bring the perfect amount of kick for kid-friendly meals. 1 / 11 2 Grecian Style Eggplant with Tomatoes & Onions ($2) The Grecian Style Eggplant with Tomatoes & Onions is bursting with flavors, including parsley, curry powder, red pepper, and garlic. This is amazing on a pizza! 2 / 11 3 Unsalted Crushed Tomatoes ($2) These adorable cans of Unsalted Crushed Tomatoes contain olive oil, herbs, and garlic. It's the perfect accessory to any good soup or stew in my house. 3 / 11 4 Tuscano Marinara Sauce ($2) The California-grown tomatoes in the Tuscano Mariana Sauce are delightfully fresh and will complement any pasta dish you're cooking up. 4 / 11 5 Chicken Breast in Water ($3) The Premium Chicken Breast in Water is a staple for any pantry.
