I love those artichoke hearts! I’ll chop them up with tomatoes and chick peas, add a tiny bit of olive oil, salt and pepper and toss with shredded lettuce and feta and serve with Naan or Pita bread 🙂

[@Atlantya]

Omg. I’m making that this weekend.

[@natashaslist]

thanks so much for this! I can't wait to try!

[@isagoldfield7393]

Natasha!! You mentioned you like sweet potatoes…me as well, have you tried TJ MURASAKI PURPLE SWEET POTATOES?..so goood💜🌼🌷

[@natashaslist]

I have! they are good!

[@dianevt2628]

Regarding reusing the pickle juice: when you pickle fresh cucumbers and can them you make a boiling hot liquid out of vinegar, water and pickling spices and salt. You put the cut cukes in a canning jar, pour in enough hot liquid to a little below the top. You then process the jars in boiling water for 20 minutes or so to kill the germs and make the lids seal. For the spices to work their way through the cukes, you let them sit for at least a month before eating. WIth that being said, I think you could reuse the pickle juice with fresh cukes, and leave them in your fridge for a month or so. You can also use the juice in other dishes like chili.

[@yvettewhitaker2653]

Hello Natasha. Yes, you can reuse pickle juice however you must boil it first. You can add more vinegar, water and spices before boiling so you have enough liquid to cover the pickles. You can put them in the same jar just pour boiling water into to sterilize it. Love your channel. Have fun and stay safe. Peace and Blessings.

[@natashaslist]

thank you so much for this!

[@susanmurten6178]

Natasha, yes, you can use the pickle brine to pickle cucumbers however, they won't taste exactly the same because the brine is considered "spent". Some of the salt has been absorbed by the pickles, so the subsequent cucumbers will be pickling in a less salty brine. You can also pickle hard boiled eggs in the brine (only let them sit in the brine a couple days otherwise the texture gets rubbery)

[@natashaslist]

thank you so much!

[@nancyfasolino7607]

Love that plant!!! My little Trader Joe’s plant I got 3 years ago is thriving ! I put it in a bigger pot and it’s getting huge! It’s a rubber plant it’s my baby my 1 st plant!

[@natashaslist]

aww love to hear this!

[@rebeccar4312]

I put cucumbers in jars of leftover pickle juice all the time! It started when I got the organic persian cukes and they went bad (grungy) fast, so I cut them up and put them in a jar with the spicy pickle juice. I too love the kosher spicy pickles, but my store is sporadic about having them in stock, so I add chopped garlic and jalapenos to regular pickle juice. Long story short, yes, put whatever you want in pickle juice or the other way around-for example, I also miss the dill mustard, so I mix some pickle juice in plain mustard. We pickle lovers have to be creative and find a way...enjoy

[@rayzer27tool]

As a cyclist, you should save that pickle juice! It's one of the best things for leg cramps. Put a little in one of those TJ juice shot bottles for rides, or you could drink some afterwards.

[@natashaslist]

love this so much!

[@karenpugh8492]

I remember you mentioning at one time that you would post your foil wrap cod filet recipe. I look forward to getting it, as it sounds incredibly delicious!! Your food hauls are so enjoyable, and I always look forward to each and every one of them.

[@netskey]

Keep rocking it Natasha! Love your channel, been following you for a long time!!!!

[@natashaslist]

Thank you so much!!

[@erinmallory2505]

I'm kinda missing Simon painting in the right hand corner! Thanks for another haul!

[@kellylermasprague5417]

It’s chips in a pickle season ! Love the grill chips. The ginger kale salad is amazing! I dried those little yellow floral accents last year and they still look great . Bachelor buttons ? I bought some more recently. Waiting for the Jalapeño lemonade to come back for Margaritas

[@natashaslist]

Love all the spring items!

[@christaberube154]

I'm no pickling expert but I have reused pickle juice and place fresh cukes in it, takes a few days to re pickle but they are delish. I only reuse once then toss. Give it a try!

[@natashaslist]

thank you!

[@marygrott8095]

Earth Balance I think is the butter spread you were referring to And I'm with you about making salad dressing. I've been making my own for over a year now, and I no longer buy salad dressing. I switch up the variety I make each week.

[@koreyb]

homemade salad dressing is so much better than anything I can find at the store.

[@natasha4643]

Awesome haul! Always love your videos & appreciate your gluten free recommendations ❤

[@natashaslist]

thanks so much for your support!

[@mariaTsounakis1521]

I always reuse the pickle juice. I put cucumbers,cauliflower, red peppers etc. so yummy.

[@natashaslist]

thank you!

[@lexgeroux9625]

oooh I wanna try the faux butter and the mango slices 😋

[@natashaslist]

hope you like them!

[@sandragreenberg6010]

Gwyneth Paltrow won her case today. I too picked up the gf cinnamon muffins last week. Delicious! TJ’s gf muffins are definitely better than regular, but that is not necessarily true for bakeries imho. That’s a wonderful thing your sister is doing for those horses.

[@natashaslist]

I heard about Gwyneth's trial, so wild! I love those muffins- so so good! And thank you for supporting my sister!

[@joanrusso7876]

Yes you can put small pickles in the same brine just refrigerate it

[@natashaslist]

thanks!

[@Ele-6800]

I need those wooden flowers. I didn't buy them when they first came out and now my TJ's doesn't have them. Hopefully they will return!

[@natashaslist]

hope you find them!

[@candyknutson4539]

Pickle juice works great for cramps and so does quinine which is in tonic water.I put fresh asparagus in my left over pickle juice.I use the pickled asparagus in bloody Marys.I live an hour away from the closest T.J.s so I haven't been in awhile . I'm really hoping they still have the cookies and cream pretzels, coffee hold the cones, Portuguese custard tarts and wooden flowers.Finally going tomorrow.

[@natashaslist]

love this idea so much! We will have to try this! and I hope you find all the things!

[@MRogers22]

I love your channel! I have to ask, what was the SHOCKING new item?

[@lindaturner5868]

I got the tiki sauce todsy it was a sample but it went so quick off the shelf. Its delish. I think i might use with chic or tuekey meatballs..delish..im not sure if new or just decided to sample it..

[@natashaslist]

yes it's new! Glad you liked it!

[@mtnlayde01]

I love Trader Joe’s ❤

[@natashaslist]

me too!

[@vanessalopez644]

Yes mixed gf muffins would be awesome! I can't ever choose!

[@dedemaycen9112]

Not an Expert...but I use the pickle juice to pickle more veggies! I especially love pickled carrots and jalapenos and onions!

[@natashaslist]

Sounds great!

[@LA-Purplicious]

I actually use left over olive and pickle juice in my dressings . Great base so I use less oil.

[@natashaslist]

Great tip!

[@simplymamads8413]

Maybe try adding the dill pickle seasoning to the mustard?

[@natashaslist]

love this idea!

[@heatherrhue7280]

I use my leftover pickle juice to help cure a hangover or brine chicken.

[@melodybias161]

Dill mustard summer only. I buy a bunch. The curry sauce is like one from a few years ago.

[@natashaslist]

I'm waiting for the dill mustard to come back! And I think the ingredients have changed between the sauces!

[@sharigiarraputo3914]

Always love your videos

[@natashaslist]

thanks for your support!

[@maremacd]

If the fish is vacuum sealed, be sure to open it and thaw it in a container in the fridge. Otherwise botulism.

[@risasklutteredkitchen1293]

I think the curry sauce has been there before. I think you are right - maybe they are re-branded. I think the vegan butter you are talking about is Plant Butter? Yes, also Earth Balance. There are several on the market in a square tub.

[@chihuahuasrule1175]

I've tried putting pickling cucumbers in the leftover kosher pickle juice and it doesn't work. There is not enough salt and sourness in the brine to properly pickle the new cucumbers.

[@marygrott8095]

Can you post a link to the sweet potato recipe?

[@natashaslist]

instagram.com/p/CqTm6vmPl4A/?igshid=ZjE2NGZiNDQ=

[@vickieharvey823]

OMG I am going to make this!

[@maryannsparelic553]

Love your checkered bag wonder if it comes in red 😊

[@natashaslist]

HomeGoods!

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

I purchased the pouch of tikka masala sauce about a month or 2 ago so it’s not brand new, but I can’t say if it is recently new or the same as a previous item but in new packaging. I love okra masala (bindi masala) but don’t like the hour long commute each way to buy it so I made a homemade version using this. I did have to add a little more spice to mine as it was too mild for me.

[@gladyschandler6724]

There's 3 trader Jose's in Austin. The Country Music Awards are taking place in downtown Austin. You might want to avoid the traffic.

[@natashaslist]

I wish we were going to be around Austin, but we are north of Ft Worth!

[@chelsearoo3]

Crew member! Tiki masala sauce is brand new. It is the replacement for the masala simmer sauce. New manufacturer, new product.

[@nicolechappell4334]

Hey Natasha! Great haul as usual - missed Simon's commentary lol. Also, the link on YT for your IG subscriptions doesn't work - it says intagram not instagram. See you at the next haul!! 😊

[@natashaslist]

Oh thank you! I’ll fix that!

[@pamscleanmachineinc.9130]

I believe the Marsala sauce use to be in a glass jar?? And UHMMM been watching you forever but now you got me hooked on Simon😂and he’s not there or in the back drop paintinng😮😅😂😂😂😂

[@natashaslist]

The ingredients changed from the glass jar to this one! And Simon missed being on this week too but he had some things to take care of!

[@LindaASJ]

Hard boil a couple eggs and store them in the pickle juice for a couple days…yum!

[@natashaslist]

great idea! I wish I didn't have an egg allergy but maybe Simon would like this!

[@christiyoung7232]

You can make a great vineagrette with the pickle juice😊

[@natashaslist]

great idea!

[@donna6186]

I love that gold checker reusable bag you have where did you get it; If you don't mind sharing, and by the way where's Simon?😊

[@natashaslist]

HOMEGOODS!

[@vickimarsh4107]

What is your sweet potatoes recipe? Sounds yummy!! I shop at traders in Boise weekly!!!

[@natashaslist]

just olive oil, salt, and pepper!

[@jessicaliflower]

I read that they discontinued the tikka masala simmer sauce (was in a glass jar) and this is a replacement…that’s also now vegan

[@natashaslist]

yes, the ingredients have changed!

[@Anne-V.]

Hope this isn’t a stupid question, but can you microwave that frozen fish or eat it cold, or do you have to bake it in the oven?

[@natashaslist]

I wouldn't eat it cold- it's frozen so you can prepare it any way you'd like!

[@carmenfurlong2845]

Have they had the tangerine mango candies out again?? I bought a ton last time I saw them and I’m out now 😬. I need more!!

[@natashaslist]

not yet! But I'm waiting too!

[@jbfygff7957]

I appreciate you sharing the high protein content of some items you purchase. I need to get 100grams per day and am always looking for ideas. Question about coconut water - do you feel it's one of the best things for hydrating and replenishing electrolytes? I can picture a very diverse onion family gathering - yellow onions, white onions, sweet onions, purple onions, scallions (I'm starting to sound like Forrest Gump with shrimp!) and the classier shaLLOT as Simon would say. Can't forget the leeks, chives, garlic and other distant relatives. Lots of tears shed and layers to peel away, not to mention all the accents. You've created a monster, Natasha. I love eating avocado slices with TJ's Balsamic Glaze. Hope your sister rescues as many horses as possible and people don't horse around bidding on Simon's painting of Fred-rick. Such a great cause!!!!

[@natashaslist]

wow, thanks for sharing all of this! I am loving your onion family gathering sooooo much! Maybe this should be Simon's next painting!

[@jbfygff7957]

@@natashaslist So many possibilities for a painting like that! I love it and believe Simon could pull it off well with his talent. I admire people who can paint what they envision. Even my stick people don't look right! My brother recently returned from a trip to Wales and mentioned how suprised he was at how big pitching horseshoes is there for a sport. I wondered if Simon's folks pitch horseshoes? If so, I can see him painting a picture for them of a comical horse pitching a pair of old farmer's boots! Is there anywhere I can see an upclose view of the painting he did a few weeks ago of the guy relaxing on the bench with his bicycle propped up nearby? I'd love to see the detail he put into it. It really struck a chord in my heart.

[@terraw3814]

Idk if it’s kosher (har har) but I stick the teeny tiny cucumbers in the remaining pickle juice & I have not yet perished from food poisoning as of today so I’m sure it’s fine 🥒🥒🥒

[@leisure057blank3]

Someday I will grow wooden flowers lol!

[@natashaslist]

LOL!

[@janelbuckley8332]

Hopefully your bathroom has a window for your plant. Just google the plant name and see the care it needs.

[@natashaslist]

thanks!

[@evelynhershkowitz3442]

What’s the difference between buttery spread and margarine?

[@natashaslist]

Margarine is a blend of oils that are mostly unsaturated fat. Butter is made from cream or milk

[@doloressloan5949]

Yes you can reuse pickle juice.

[@natashaslist]

thanks!

[@sharigiarraputo3914]

You can reuse the pickling juice

[@natashaslist]

thanks!

[@melodybias161]

Yes G Paltrow won the skiing incident today.

[@natashaslist]

I heard this!

[@masamidubin7490]

You look great in that dress 😍

[@entertainmentrealm]

this buttery spread reminds me of Melt

[@lynnm9138]

15 years!? Congratulations

[@natashaslist]

thanks!

[@kankan244]

Love the haul We tried the Chilean Hake it has a very fishy taste. I didn't like it at all. Kinda like a sardine but a softer texture and not as tasty. 😒

[@natashaslist]

Good to know!

[@fugdis94]

pickle juice is great in bloody mary’s

[@natashaslist]

you're not wrong!

[@helencalvert4688]

15 years? You don't look that old! Enjoy your videos and enjoy Simon also

[@natashaslist]

thanks!

[@lindaturner5868]

I always put buttr on my muffins. & i was at trader joes today & for the vegan buttr :( but will go back & get soon

[@natashaslist]

hope you find some soon!

[@PattisPurse]

Yes, you are correct - Gwenyth Paltrow - the skier ran into her and is suing her... but he definitely said some odd things after it happened, fun to watch. He's suing for millions. i dont think he'll win

[@natashaslist]

annnnd he lost!

[@barrli1]

Regular muffins for me. No gluten free anything.

[@natashaslist]

lucky you don't have a gluten intolerance!

[@user-lu5iy8hg7x]

I think you meant Chef Bai

[@natashaslist]

@chefbae

[@lunardesignstudiolinda1256]

Simon?

[@natashaslist]

taking care of some things!

[@sharoncloutier2131]

Where is Simon?

[@natashaslist]

he was taking care a of a few things!

[@PsychoCutieMe]

You are brave to go to the auction. Sending my love. I admit, I had to unfollow your sis' account because the images alone would haunt me.

[@marilynpelc5900]

The ingredients in that vegan spread sounds horrible. A bunch of highly processed low grade oils. Hard pass.

[@lorrainemarcone6912]

I agree. I used to use that spread all the time. It is so over processed and the ingredients are terrible. When I switched to real grass fed butter like Kerry Gold and Kirkland which were recommended to me by a dietician, my cholesterol numbers improved dramatically. I used to love that junk but now that I’ve had real good butter the margarine tastes like slimy grease, yuk!

[@suewilson683]

where's simon

[@natashaslist]

taking care of some things!

[@lindaturner5868]

Missing Simon????!!! Wow. 15yrs. Wow...do u get paid for your hauls?

[@natashaslist]

Simon was taking care of some things! And I am not sponsored, endorsed, or affiliated with TJs!

[@Claudi771]

You’re just a typical YOUNGSTER AMERICAN BUYING INTO AS MUCH AS YOU CAN! Pity. I imagine you end up throwing A LOT OF YOUR PURCHASE OUT CAUSE YOU FAIL TO USE THEM! 🤨

[@natashaslist]

First of all, thank you for calling me young. Second of all, all we entertain a lot, I shop for other people, and none of the food I buy goes to waste. You are very mistaken!
