Maple Glazed Krispy Kreme Donuts

For some donut treats, you can try this Krispy Kreme-style Maple Glazes Donuts. To make the dough, just add warm milk and a bit of sugar and mix all together. Add the yeast, eggs, and melted butter and blend it all up, then add flour little by little. Let the dough rise in the fridge to make it easier to work with. As for the glaze, add Trader Joe's Maple Butter, sugar, milk, and vanilla. Once you rolled the dough, cut out the donuts and the donut holes. And then fry the donuts. Once done, dip them into the hot glaze.

Put some cheese on a greased pan before placing a slice of bread over it. Then add more cheese and then top it with Trader Joe's Onion Salt which is a blend of onion, garlic, and chives. Flip the bread and then sprinkle again with cheese. Easy peasy, ain't it?

Trader Joe's Mac & Cheese with Italian Sausage and Spinach

Trader Joe's Mac & Cheese with Italian Sausage and Spinach courtesy of Delish. What you need: Two (2) boxes of Trader Joe's Frozen Mac & Cheese, 1/ lb Italian sausage links (sliced into rounds), and three (3) cups of baby spinach.

Cook the Trader Joe's Frozen Mac & Cheese. While waiting for it to cook, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned. Then add the spinach and let it cook for about two minutes.

Then heat the broilers and then transfer the macaroni to an ovenproof skillet. Add the sausage and spinach. Broil the mixture until golden for about three minutes.

Breakfast Egg Hash

Breakfast Egg Hash courtesy of Cup of Jo. For this recipe, you need TJ Frozen Shredded Hash Browns, cooking oil, TJ Citterio cubed pancetta, six (6) eggs, TJ shredded Mexican cheese, TJ pico de gallo salsa (mild), avocado (sliced), scallions, and salt and pepper.

Fry the frozen hash brown until brown and crispy. Then layer them on a big dish. After that, cook the cubed pancetta until crispy, and set aside the oil for later use. Put the pancetta on a plate with a paper towel to remove excess oil.

In the reserved pancetta oil, cook the eggs. Scramble them a bit and season with salt and pepper. Turn the heat off before sprinkling the eggs with grated cheese. Cover the pan for a few minutes to allow the cheese to melt.

Using a spatula, layer the eggs onto the hash browns before sprinkling the crispy pancetta on top. Lastly, layer with pico de gallo (liquid removed), avocado, and sliced scallions.
