7 Frozen High-Protein Trader Joe’s Items, According To A Health Guru

He handpicked certain products, elaborating on why they are excellent choices for those looking to shed some pounds. “These are the best frozen meals from Trader Joe’s to grab if you’re on a weight loss journey,” he explained.

1. Grilled Chimichurri Chicken Thigh Skewers

“When you come to the frozen food section, I know you want to grab the orange chicken, but you have to be careful as this is super high in calories, watch yourself,” Harrison advised. Instead, he recommended grabbing “something like the Grilled Chimichurri Chicken Thigh Skewers.” The flavor, he added, is “off the charts with this and it has 56 grams of protein for 430 calories.”

2. Mahi Mahi Burgers

Next, he said to try the “Mahi Mahi Burgers and double this up for 30 grams of protein for 280 calories.” You don’t even have to “make this in a burger, as you could dice it up over rice or make a salad,” Harrison suggested.

3. Egg Frittata

“Here’s a frozen breakfast for you, the Egg Frittata,” he said next in the clip. “Put this in the microwave. You could make an egg sandwich or just have it plain for 25 grams of protein,” he pointed out. The fitness coach added: “It’s easy for 270 calories. Trader Joe’s is making it easy.”

4. Argentinean Red Shrimp

“The pre-seasoned garlic shrimp is a protein cheat code,” Harrison said regarding the frozen Argentinean Red Shrimp with ginger garlic butter and togarashi-style seasoning. “Use this to get 41 grams of protein for 310 calories.”

5. Turkey Meatballs

Harrison noted that he air-fries meatballs “every week,” opting for the turkey over the beef for less calories. “There are 100 calories for two meatballs and 12 grams of protein. Double it up, game-changer,” he said.
