The one Trader Joe\u2019s product I always keep in my freezer is the Mini French Baguettes.\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_5-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block lifestyle-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image--no-theme no-theme figure-landscape figure-high-res\"><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"> <span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>Simply Recipes \/ Trader Joe&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p><\/span><br \/>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_6-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block lifestyle-sc-block-callout mntl-sc-block-callout mntl-block theme-tip text-passage\" data-tracking-id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout\" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<h3 id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-heading_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-heading mntl-text-block\">Trader Joe&#8217;s Mini French Baguettes<\/h3>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block-callout-body_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block-callout-body mntl-text-block text-passage\">\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Price: <\/strong>$4.49 for six mini baguettes<\/li>\n<li><strong>Why I Love Them:<\/strong> A warm French baguette is only six minutes away.\u00a0The outside is golden and crusty, and the inside is soft, airy, and warm with just the right amount of chew.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"heading-toc\" id=\"toc-why-i-love-trader-joes-mini-french-baguettes\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_7-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block lifestyle-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"> <span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text\"> Why I Love Trader Joe&#8217;s Mini French Baguettes <\/span> <\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_8-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> These little breads are made in a French bakery specifically for Trader Joe&#8217;s. They aren&#8217;t as flashy as, say, the Garlic Gondolas or Mac and Cheese Bites, but sometimes the simplest things are the best things.\u00a0\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> They bake from frozen in a 400\u00b0F oven for six minutes. I always bake them in my toaster oven (less preheating time) and find they are perfect in five minutes. I prefer to use the toaster oven so I don\u2019t have to heat the oven, especially in the summer!\u00a0\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_12-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> These mini baguettes are just the right size, too. They\u2019re small enough that you wouldn&#8217;t use them for a sandwich, but each one is a perfect single serving alongside a bowl of pasta. After baking, they taste, well, freshly baked, not like a frozen product. The outside is golden and crusty, and the inside is soft, airy, and warm with just the right amount of chew. It&#8217;s quite impressive for a frozen bread product.\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"heading-toc\" id=\"toc-how-i-serve-trader-joes-mini-french-baguettes\"\/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_14-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block lifestyle-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"> <span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text\"> How I Serve Trader Joe&#8217;s Mini French Baguettes <\/span> <\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_15-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> These little baguettes are a perfect finishing touch to many of my favorite meals. I love them in the winter with my favorite Ina Garten recipe, Weeknight Bolognese, or creamy potato soup. In the summer, they are perfect with a Cobb Salad, which I make weekly.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_17-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> I like to put a little scoop of butter on each bite (Trader Joe&#8217;s Cultured Salted Butter is my favorite).\u00a0 My mouth is watering just thinking about it. They would also be fun served with warm, creamy spinach and artichoke dip as an appetizer or on a charcuterie board.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_19-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html\"> No matter what I\u2019m making for dinner, thanks to Trader Joe&#8217;s, a warm French baguette is only six minutes away.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>#Trader #Joes #Find #Freezer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have a family of two, so buying fresh bread can be futile.
