Sometimes We Just Want a Pair of Comfy Shoes

Happy Friday, gang! We are marching through February at a record pace. Before you know it Spring will be here. And there’s nothing better than Spring in the South. It’s a feast for sore eyes that have become accustomed to gray skies and rain, snow and slush.

Kelly and I are wrapping up our time on the American Queen chugging our way from New Orleans to Memphis. We’ve seen temps range from the 70s down to the 30s. Now that’s quite the range when you’re planning your wardrobe! We’ll have all the details soon!

Being single has its challenges, one being cooking for one on a daily basis. That’s when Trader Joe’s comes in handy. They have some delicious meals available that serve just one! Some can be found in the frozen food section whereas others are fresh. I like to keep frozen meals on hand in case I’m in a pinch for time. Today, I rounded up a few of my favorite Trader Joe’s frozen food.

TL;DR

  Today, I’m sharing some of my favorite Trader Joe’s frozen food—perfect for when you’re single and in a pinch

  I’ve also got a comfy cozy outfit with a pair of comfort shoes I’m just absolutely loving

Sometimes We Just Want a Pair of Comfy Shoes

1. Relaxed Rollneck Sweater

(J.Crew)

It’s been a mixed bag as far as weather this month so I’m keeping it easy with a black cotton sweater (limited sizes, similar here and here)  from J.Crew, white denim that’s perfect for these transition month, and a pair of sneakers that have received so many compliments when I’m out and about. And they’re so darn comfy! They’re slip-ons with the laces on the outside. But what I love best is the sole that adds a one-two  punch to a simple outfit!

2. Trader Joe’s Frozen Food

Hold the Cone

I try to limit my sweets but every now and then I indulge. Hold the Cone is perfect when I’m craving something sweet. And it’s the perfect size! 3 cones 260 calories and 19 grams sugar

Steamed Dumplings.

For a quick, easy and satisfying meal I simply pop these dumplings in the microwave and heat them up. Add soy sauce and grab your chopsticks. Dinner is served. 250 calories and 3 grams of sugar

Butter Chicken with Basmati Rice

According to Trader Joe’s they gave all-star status to the ever-popular Mandarin Orange Chicken to make way for other entrees to become all-stars in their own right. Butter Chicken with Basmati Rice is the perfect meal for one that’s a filling meal for dinner. 270 calories and 2 grams of sugar.

Lamb Vindaloo

Just like the Butter Chicken with Basmati Rice the Lamb Vindaloo is a satisfying meal for one. It’s a spicy curry dish but not as spicy as some Indian dishes. I love to mix the sauce with the basmati rice and lamb. 390 calories and 5 grams of sugar.

3. Kinetic Impact Sneaker
