This Trader Joe’s mirepoix is a traditional mix of onions, carrots and onions and is used as a base for sauces and dishes. You normally cook it in butter or oil to bring out all the flavors. This is found in the refrigerated section of Trader Joe’s and usually stays fresh for around a week. Obviously it’s a lot better to cut and dice the vegetables yourself if you want them to last longer, but this is a nice convenient option when you’re cooking but don’t want to do all the cutting and dicing prep work. Considering how much it costs to buy the individual veggies, this is actually a pretty economical price at under $3 for 14.5 ounces. And if you can’t make it out to TJs, give these items a shot………….

Trader Joe’s Frozen Broccoli review
My favorite way to use this is saute in olive oil with garlic, add italian seasoning, throw in some home-cooked navy beans, add vegetable stock and a can of diced tomatoes. Fry half a chicken sausage and break up into bits; add to the soup. Finish with a handful of baby kale. Salt and pepper to taste.
