Ricotta and Lemon Zest Ravioli

  • Price: $3.99

Trader Joe’s ricotta and lemon zest ravioli is a seasonal pasta with creamy cheese and citrus flavor. It’s made with three ingredients: soft wheat flour, durum wheat semolina and egg. And it’s rolled thin and custom cut to resemble a sunflower. Pair it with a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon or a light butter sauce and you’ve got a simple yet luxurious summer dish.

This organic jalapeño limeade from Trader Joe’s is made with water, organic lime juice that’s not from concentrate, organic cane sugar and organic jalapeño powder. It’s just the right balance of sweet, tart and spicy. You can drink it on its own or mix the limeade with sparkling water and a handful of fresh berries or a sliced cucumber.

Elote Chopped Salad Kit

  • Price: $3.99

Trader Joe’s elote chopped salad kit is inspired by Mexican street corn and comes with chopped greens, roasted corn, cotija cheese, crunchy toppings and a creamy, tangy dressing with a hint of lime. It pairs well with grilled chicken or shrimp, but it’s just as good on its own when you want something fresh and more exciting than a basic salad.
