Canned beans and cheese sticks are some of my favorite things to buy at Trader Joe's. Ashley Martens I'm a certified personal trainer who loves shopping at Trader Joe's. I pick up proteins like the store's cheese sticks, chili-lime chicken strips, and pork tenderloin. Trader Joe's cauliflower gnocchi and fresh broccoli make excellent side dishes. As a certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor, I try my best to prioritize protein-heavy and nutritious items while food shopping. Tha
