Top Ten Trader Joe's Sweet Treats
You know we love Trader Joe’s because they help make healthy eating so practical & convenient.
But you probably also know that Trader Joe’s is a treasure trove of yummy sweet treats.
And while we wouldn’t want to overindulge in sweets every day, we do encourage you to plan a couple of treats each week.
That’s because enjoying treats in moderation helps you avoid feelings of deprivation and makes it easier to stick with your plan.
Because most treats are dense in calories, portions should be small. The simplest way to keep your treat moderate is to limit it to approximately 100 calories.
Below are ten of our favorite Trader Joe’s treats that can easily be divided into portions that are about 100 calories.
