Let's talk Aguachile Alley

As a very hungry boy, none of the frozen entrees are individually enough for me. For dinner, I like to do an Indian entree + half a box of chicken tikka samosas + garlic naan. With lamb vindaloo it comes out to 830 calories with a reasonable protein/fat/carb ratio, which for a big ass meal of frozen food is... pretty reasonable I think? 800 calories is kind of the sweet spot for me.

yeah i also have a baseline large appetite, unfortunately. mixing cottage cheese into the indian entrees is my usual move and even then it's never enough to sustain me like as an actual meal. i love those naan. i've been letting them warm up in the oven while i make some scrambled eggs with the everything but the bagel spice blend. they're also good with the eggplant/red pepper spread (which i guess is just the tj's version of ajvar)--i had that for dinner with some of the hummus the other night

Pancake Bread, $4 for 15 ounces
If you really want to indulge for breakfast but don't have time to make pancakes, might I suggest this pancake bread? A slice of this will transport you straight to Sunday brunch. Kitchn's Audience Development Associate, Emma Glubiak, helped me devour this and she said this: "The first bite reminded me of a traditional pound cake with a little extra sugar on top for pizazz. The aftertaste, however, is exactly like pancakes — right down to the buttery maple syrup flavor. I'm shocked, impressed, and will use this as an excuse to eat cake for breakfast." I concur!

the cauliflower gnocchi is pretty great. cooked it frozen, right into the pan with a bit of olive oil, and topped with baby tomatoes, garlic, and carmelized onions that i'd cooked down for a bit. way better than cauliflower rice.

Mostly all of their products are just other brands they paid to put their name over.
They don't sell it as is as part of the agreement because then those brands wouldn't get bought elsewhere with their higher price tags
Some brands, typically smaller ones allow to be sold as is because it gives them exposure

They're not actually Takis, look at the ingredients on a bag sometime, TJ doesn't carry shit with preservatives and artificial flavors/colors
