   Our next brand new food, Trader Joe's Carbonara Stuffed Cheese Ravioli, distributed and sold exclusively by Trader Joe's, has been designated "winner" with the taste panel.  

      Trader Joe's Carbonara Stuffed Cheese Ravioli is full of all of the good things that makes carbonara, well, carbonara; cheese (ricotta & parmesan), peas, bacon...a wonderful way to enjoy this delicious flavor combination in a neat and easy way. Just boil, drain, and serve with sauce or drizzled with olive oil for a wonderful meal.

What we liked:
    Comments from our taste panel included "love the distinctive taste", "nice balance of cheese, bacon and peas", "nice, rich texture", "slightly sweet yet savory", and "very unique--great and easy way to enjoy carbonara".


Story:
    Trader Joe's started in the Greater Los Angeles area as Pronto Markets in 1958.  In 1967, the first Trader Joe's opened in Pasadena, CA, and food retailing forever changed for the better.

Did you know?
In 1985, Trader Joe's newsletter changed from the "Insider Report" to the famous "Fearless Flyer".

Trader Joe's first non-California store opened in Phoenix, AZ in 1993.

Ravioli is plural for "raviolo", a traditional Italian filled pasta sealed between two thin layers of egg pasta dough and served in broth or with pasta sauce.

The term "carbonara" is derived from the word "carbonaro", which is Italian for "charcoal burner". Some believe it was first made as a hearty meal for Italian charcoal workers.

    Filling (ricotta cheese [pasteurized whole milk, distilled vinegar, salt], peas, uncured bacon w/nitrate or no nitrate added [pork, water, salt, sugar], heavy cream, parmesan cheese base (parmesan cheese [milk, cultures, salt, enzymes], salt, yeast extract, unsalted butter, corn oil, olive oil, cream powder, sugar, natural flavor), parmesan cheese (part-skim pasteurized cow's milk, cheese cultures, salt, rennet), milk, parsley, egg whites, black pepper, salt, annatto oil, turmeric oil, pasta (durum wheat flour, water, eggs, turmeric oil)
