Trader Joe’s fan shares her easy shopping formula so she NEVER overbuys – and it works in any store

TRADER Joe's fans know grocery shopping can quickly become a massive spree, but you can stop that from happening with this simple formula.

Dietician Olivia Ashton shared her secret to conquering the aisles of Trader Joe's without going overboard.


"When you open your fridge and realize you have nothing in it, use this formula to restock," Ashton explained in a TikTok that's raked in over a million views.

She starts off by grabbing four proteins: greek yogurt, pork tenderloin, hard-boiled eggs, and frozen turkey burgers.

"One for breakfast, one for lunch and dinner, one for snacks, and a frozen option to keep on hand," she explained.

Then she said to grab three different colored vegetables and added that they can be either fresh or frozen. Ashton opted for Brussel sprouts, baby carrots, and cauliflower.

Next, she added two ready-to-eat meals, which thankfully Trader Joe's has a wide selection of.

She moved on to two sauces and dips and chose hummus and zhoug sauce. Ashton says to add the extra flavors "so you can mix things up and add variety."
