Think you can’t make a satisfying dinner with just five ingredients? Think again. Nicole is back in the kitchen with six complete dinners using only Trader Joe’s staples and shortcuts — each dish with five ingredients or less.
She kicks things off with the viral Trader Joe’s lobster bisque pasta, a creamy, crowd-pleasing dish that comes together in minutes. Then it’s onto a one-pan stir-fry starring frozen wontons — a shortcut you’ll want on repeat. She follows that with a cheesy, dump-and-go enchilada bake, then transforms your favorite party dip into a comforting spinach artichoke chicken pasta. Nicole also builds hearty, Asian-style rice bowls that are endlessly customizable and weeknight-friendly. And to finish strong, the easiest crispy fish tacos you’ll ever make in the air-fryer.
Whether you’re cooking for one or feeding the whole family, these Trader Joe’s dinner hacks are perfect for busy nights, beginner cooks, or anyone who loves smart shortcuts and bold flavor — with minimal effort.
