Cooking with Trader Joe's
Deliciously fun & easy!
Frequently Asked Questions
How many cookbooks do you have? 
We now have 5 Trader Joe's cookbooks, all featuring easy gourmet recipes using shortcuts from Trader Joe's.

Are your cookbooks available in stores?
Yes! In addition to Amazon, brick and mortar stores such as Barnes & Noble or your local independent bookstore carry our books. Chances are that your local bookstore carries them, or can order them quickly. Gift shops are starting to carry our books too.

Are you sponsored by Trader Joe's?
No, we are not affiliated with or sponsored by Trader Joe's.  This is an independent work without any corporate sponsorship.

What makes these cookbooks unique?
All the ingredients for every recipe can be found at Trader Joe's - so you can make these easy recipes with just one stop to your favorite grocer.  Of course, you can substitute similar products from other stores if you don't have a Trader Joe's near you. All our cookbooks have nutritional data and mouthwatering photos, too.

What if an item in the cookbooks gets discontinued?
We offer substitution ideas for many of the ingredients in our cookbooks (if the link doesn't work, go to the Substitutions tab on our website).  We also encourage you to experiment with substitutions of your own.

Are your photos real?
Yes! Real food, cooked in our own kitchens, with no artificial touch-ups. We love cookbooks with photos, so we had to put them in.
