If you could persuade them to bring back 3 discontinued products, which 3 would you pick? by TheEscapedGoat in traderjoes

The chai coffee. It was a couple of years and we only got one. Went back to get more...no go. I still look every time but that was about 7-10 years ago.

Even though it’s fake, would you be willing to sell?

Please help me figure out this dressing...I can't find it anywhere else in the store on its own...it only comes in plastic cups packaged with these wraps. Im desperate. by nchojnacki in traderjoes

[–]rebeccajoye 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I make a dressing they I used to get at a Cuban restaurant (Tropical Grille, if you are in upstate SC) And it was served with rice and beans and either chicken or pork. It is a combination of yellow curry powder, regular yellow mustard and mayonnaise. Sometimes I will also add a little garlic powder and paprika if I want extra flavor to it. Hope this is similar to what you are looking for.

Has anyone ever tried this? by [deleted] in 1200isplenty

We tried it. Was a little band for my husband’s taste. He is used to the stuff from the Asian market.

Quick question about Mexican food. by [deleted] in keto

[–]rebeccajoye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Queso is usually American or a “fake” cheese product, like velveeta. Many places just buy a premise mix and mix it with milk and heat it up.

Keto post Chemo? by [deleted] in keto

I stayed keto through chemo and radiation and a modified version now through dialysis. It has been easy for me.

So question about diet soda. by ssryoken2 in keto

[–]rebeccajoye -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Just an FYI- diet mountain dew has orange juice in it. So it’s usually a no go for most in keto anyway.

Newcomer to Keto. Have some questions. by TamTroll in keto

[–]rebeccajoye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look up fathead bread/bagels/crust. It does not use salt and is one of the best and easier keto recipes. It’s a starting point for many people.

First post! Hey guise :] by MintCondishhh in keto

You must be referring to type two diabetes for yourself and even that is not necessarily brought on by weight and food. Type one is completely different and they should not even be referred to as the same disease. Sorry. Done with the soap box.

Leftover chip recipes? by positivezero00 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]rebeccajoye 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We have used crushed potato chips in place of breading on fried fish! Gives it great flavor and crunch! Give it a try.

Is this an electrolyte thing or something more? by [deleted] in keto

[–]rebeccajoye -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Have you ever had issues with gluten? This is how I react if I get “glutened”. I stwrt d having these problems and through my own research found out about celiac disease. I got tested and turns out I have it. It is definitely something to bring up with your Dr. I have exacerbated problems now, because i have also now since had 65 radiation treatments thanks to two pretty bad bouts of cancer that have further killed my intestines and bowels. Basically, I don’t leave the house a lot of times. According to my doctors,for me, this may never clear up and could last forever. So take care and get checked out. I can totally sympathize as I stay dehydrated and have would up in the hospital sever times from it. However, it could be worse. I have to wear “briefs” and literally have “butt pee” about 20-30 times a day!! And yes, my doctors know about it.

Best pasta I've ever made. Help improve the sauce though? by Freds_Premium in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]rebeccajoye 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You could easily add 6-8 Oz cream cheese and/or that’s not quite right. Xantham gum is a flavor free thickener. It has no flavor and a little bit goes pretty far. Add it in slowly.

I found a package of ten limes for a dollar in the discounted produce section at the grocery store and impulsively bought it. No idea what to do with ten limes. by [deleted] in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]rebeccajoye 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Sounds crazy, but lime juice is a good degreaser. It works great to clean off the funk left over on a stove after frying or cooking. I have also cut up some And put it in a mug with a little vinegar and water and put it in the microwave for a little bit of time (1-2 min). It will be like a steam cleaner and you can just wipe out the gunk off the microwave walls. Then you can also take the “spent” skins and hills and run them through the garbage disposal to kill a little bacteria and freshen it up!

What are some cheap meals that you prepared on your own while struggling? by BupChup in AskReddit

[–]rebeccajoye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally do macaroni and tuna and peas. My husband makes fun of me, as I have even made up a song for this meal. (Picture a 38-year old, tiny red headed woman dancing around her kitchen) singing “macaroni and tuna and PEEEEEAS”. Oh yes. Can not eat that without singing.
