Tuesday will start on a cozy note — a croissant layered with Trader Joe’s Apple Pie Spread, one of those limited edition finds that deserves a spot on the breakfast table while it lasts. Sweet, buttery, and perfectly spiced, it will set the tone for a day that feels quietly indulgent.
Dinner will bring an easy Italian comfort: Trader Joe’s Four Cheese Ravioli tossed with Organic Vodka Sauce, served alongside sourdough bread and a chilled glass of Villa Alena Moscato D’Asti.
Cooking Tip: To keep ravioli from sticking, I’ll reserve a splash of pasta water to toss with a drizzle of olive oil before adding the sauce — it keeps the pasta glossy and helps the sauce cling just right.
Kitchen Tool: A microplane grater will make all the difference — fresh Parmigiano Reggiano shaved over the top adds that final touch of richness and salt.
And for dessert, I’ll revisit the Pumpkin Pie Spice Rolls with Maple Cream Cheese Icing, because sometimes the best treats are the ones you get to enjoy twice.
