Our Favorite Trader Joe's Fall Foods of 2024

This year's Trader Joe's Fall Haul did not disappoint. We found a combination of macro-friendly options (though fewer than expected!) and more macro-dense treats worth budgeting your daily targets for.

Macro-Friendly Trader Joe’s Fall Foods

I've hunkered down with a cup of Maple Coffee (yum), and I'm ready to fill you in on some macro-friendly Trader Joe’s fall foods to try this season. 

Remember, "macro-friendly" doesn't necessarily mean the lowest calorie options, and "macro-friendly" is subjective—it depends on how many macros you need based on your goals. The amazing thing about flexible dieting is that you can plan ahead for the foods you want to prioritize and incorporate foods you love into a balanced plan. 

Although there were fewer options than in previous years, there are some new favorites that will help you enjoy seasonal flavors!

Pumpkin Spice Coffee & Autumn Maple Coffee

Macros: All zeros!

How to Drink It: Replace your usual coffee with this seasonal fav (it also comes in single-serving Keurig pods) and start sippin’ on fall. 

Pumpkin Spice Rooibos Tea

Trader Joe's Pumpkin Spice Rooibos Tea is caffeine-free, so enjoy it anytime. Add a splash of cream and a bit of sweetness (I prefer Stevia), and create your own healthier Pumpkin Spice Latte!

Holiday Vegetable Hash

Macros: 45Cal/0F/1P/11C for 1/2 cup (85g)

How to Eat It: Sautee and enjoy for breakfast with eggs or add these seasoned veggies to soup or stuffing.

Autumnal Harvest Pasta Sauce & "Pasta" Options

Macros: 100Cal/6F/1P/12C for 1/2 cup (125g)

How to Eat It: Top your spaghetti squash, zoodles, butternut squash zigzags, or these low-carb pasta alternatives with this delicious sauce. If you have more carb macros to play with, pair it with Trader Joe's Organic Fall Zuchette Pasta (1.5F/7P/41C for 57g dry).

Pumpkin Greek Non-Fat Greek Yogurt

Macros: 130Cal/0F/12P/20C for 1 container (150g)

How to Eat It: If you want to enjoy this yogurt, watch your carb intake! It is delicious, but the pumpkin flavor packs a more considerable carb punch than plain Greek yogurt. Enjoy it as a post-dinner treat or pre- or post-workout snack. If you want something similar with fewer carbs, try adding pumpkin pie spice and a dash of stevia to plain Greek yogurt. Want to up the protein content? Add some of our favorite Unflavored Collagen Powder.

“This Pumpkin Walks Into a Bar” Cereal Bars

Macros: 140Cal/2.5F/27C/2P for 1 bar (37g)

How to Eat It: These bars are high in carbohydrates and low in fat and protein, so they are a great pre- or post-workout snack.

Ghosts & Bats Crispy Potato Snacks

Macros: 140Cal/6F/0P/20C for 30 chips (1oz)

How to Eat Them: Pre-portion your snack and enjoy when you need something crunchy and salty.

Pecan Pumpkin Instant Oatmeal

Macros: 180Cal/4F/4P/33C for 1 packet (45g dry)

How to Eat It: Make overnight oats by adding your milk of choice and letting it sit overnight. Or, eat it as breakfast (add extra protein with plain collagen powder and/or top with Greek yogurt!), before your workout, or after your workout.

Pumpkin Overnight Oats

Macros: 200Cal/5F/5P/33C for 1 container (156g)

How to Eat It: Bump up the protein by adding collagen or vanilla protein powder, or top it with plain Greek Yogurt. We recommend using this as a pre-or post-workout snack instead of breakfast unless you train first thing in the morning. Here's why!

Gluten-Free Pumpkin Ravioli

Macros: 200Cal/4.5F/5P/36C for 1 cup (100g)

How to Eat It: Top it with Trader Joe's Autumnal Pasta Sauce or your sauce of choice, add some protein, and enjoy with veggies on the side!

Fall Trader Joe's Pantry Staples

With the cool air and seasonal flavors comes the urge to bake. In addition to traditional staples (flour, oil, sugar, etc.), here are a few fall-specific pantry items from Trader Joe's.

Add pumpkin puree to bread, pie, and even chili! Ensure you're stocked up on spices like pumpkin pie spice, ground ginger, and ground nutmeg. Then, if you're looking for something a little fun, these Halloween Sprinkles are a great way to add a little holiday fun to your baked goods.

Trader Joe’s Fall Foods That Are Worth Planning Ahead For
