Trader Joe's organic garbanzo beans are a versatile pantry staple.

Garbanzo beans are a great source of protein and can be prepared in many different ways.

I love using them to make curry dishes and roasting them for my salads. Sometimes, I'll even blend them to make hummus.

I've used Trader Joe's vegan heavy whipping cream in my cauliflower mash, mac and cheese, and chia-seed puddings.

It sells for $4.50 at my local Trader Joe's.

I love having roasted seaweed as a snack.

Trader Joe's has a great snack section, and one of my favorite items to purchase is its organic roasted seaweed with sea salt.

Trader Joe's organic roasted seaweed is light, airy, and makes a nice crunchy snack with mixed nuts.

At my local Trader Joe's, a six-pack of organic seaweed costs $3.80.

I use Trader Joe's vegan kale, cashew, and basil pesto to make a delicious pasta sauce.

Trader Joe's vegan kale, cashew, and basil pesto makes me feel like a chef. I like to combine the pesto with other green veggies I have in the fridge to make a pasta sauce using my nutribullet.

My favorite way to prepare the sauce is to add avocado, spinach, a drizzle of lemon juice, Trader Joe's 21 seasoning, garlic powder, cashew, and olive oil.

However, the pesto is already delicious on its own and costs $4 at my local Trader Joe's.
