Tonight it’s ALL @traderjoes with Power Greens topped with Mahi Mahi burgers, tropical salsa, avocados and salt and pepper. I sautéed the burgers in 2 tbsp of olive oil for about 5 min on each side in a pan with the lid halfway on. This was ready in less than 20 min! Oh and it’s perfect for one or two people! .

Are you a Trader Joe’s fan? .
