Costco Favorites

 


The seasonal offerings from Costco lately has been great. For a while after the pandemic, it seems as though Costco has lost its groove, but lately, it looks like Costco has gotten its groove back. We’ve found some great and tasty items that’s made everyone happy at the dinner table, even our pickiest eater. 

* Mashed Avocados - I love that this comes in individual packs. One of my little ones is a fan of avocado toasts.

* Sweet potato fries - We love any type of fries, but we love sweet potato fries even more. Just pop it in the oven or air fryer. 

* Kimchi - I'm the only one eating this, but that's ok because it is delicious. I'm excited to find this at Costco because it's normally hard to find in our neck of the woods. I hope Costco keeps carrying this.

* Brie Bites - Brie that's individually packed, need I say more. It's so good with croissants and sandwiches.

* Portuguese Custard Tarts - This is very good. It takes time to prepare in the oven or air fryer, but it is worth it. It's not too sweet with a flaky crust. We all love it and wanted seconds.

* Salted Caramel Muffin Bites - Again, I love that it's individually wrapped. It's perfect as a snack on the go. 

* Dole Whip - These are really good. Not as good as the original in Hawaii but better than the ones at Disney World in my opinion. The individual cups are small but perfect as a little treat. I hope Costco keep bringing this back.

* Fresh Fettuccine - Nothing beats fresh fettuccine. So glad to find this at Costco. 

A tip for Costco, if you see it, buy it. Don't wait to come back and get it later because most of the time, the items sell out quick. I learned this the hard way.

I understand that Costco has different offerings in different regions, so if you find the above at your local Costco, give it a try if you so inclined.

Of all the -isms ...

  Of all the -isms in our culture today, this one is often ignored and up there with the most nefarious. I’m talking about nepotism. This is because it is so stealthy. It is not obvious. You never know who is related to whom, either by blood or by marriage.  Unfortunately, you don’t get to choose who your family are. The treachery within family is stuff of legends and timeless novels. At the same time, the benefits of some families just keep on giving, bootstraps not needed at all, just look for the red carpet treatment. When it comes to nepotism, there are tell-tale signs over time, emphasis on time. There are certain people who seem to get away with everything. Rules for you but not for them. Some of these people aren’t qualified for the job, and yet they have been promoted countless times to the top just like that. Then there are some people who haven't done much and yet they’re bestowed with awards and recognitions nonstop just for showing up. Meanwhile, the rest of us are...

What’s Cooking Vol. 4: Garlic Bread

  This is a side. It’s really nothing, but it’s one of our favorite no meat dishes, so I thought I’d share this as an idea for a side during Lent.  What you need: - bread - butter - garlic seasoning - shredded Parmesan cheese If you have a loaf of bread, it’s even better. It works with everyday sliced bread as shown in the image above. Melt the butter in the microwave until it is soft enough to mix but not liquid. It doesn’t take long, like several seconds. The amount of butter varies depending on the bread and how much parmesan you’d like. Mix the butter with garlic seasoning and the shredded parmesan cheese. Spread it on the bread and put it in the oven or toaster oven. Baking time will vary depending on how toasted you like your bread. Bake until the butter is melted into the bread or until the parmesan cheese is slightly toasted.  There are many garlic seasonings out there, but this Weber one is my favorite, not salty, just herbs and garlic. The same goes for the s...
