While you can find a lot of Keto-approved groceries at most neighborhood grocery store chains, Trader Joe’s stands out as one of the best places to stock up on affordable and healthy options. I am not sure how widespread the Trader Joe’s brand is, but it does seem like I get a lot of requests from all around the country asking me to make this list and the subsequent video. For me, Trader Joe’s is about a half hour out of my way to go to, but it is one of the few grocery stores I have found that sells Halloumi Cheese in my area (though I hear that’s only in the summer months).
Feel free to print this list out, or download it to your cell phone, or you can even Pin It to save it to your Pinterest for later. As always I appreciate all of your support to help keep me motivated to produce videos and resources like this for everyone’s mutual benefit.
If you have some suggestions on your personal favorites from Trader Joe’s that did not make my list, please feel free to drop those in the comment section below. I will periodically update this list from time to time as I encounter and try out new items at Trader Joe’s that we can proudly call Keto-Approved. If there are some other grocery stores that you would like me to make a similar list for, you can also let me know in the comments section at the bottom of this article.
As usual, I will try to include an link to Trader Joe’s on Amazon below for any relevant items I can find them selling on there. That way you can read more information from them on their foods as well as possibly place an order for them too. You may find pricing differences between ordering them online versus going to the store and picking them up off the shelves.
If you would also like to print out my Keto Approved Sam’s Club Shopping List, you can do that here.

I live in Canandaigua is there a trader Joe’s close to me ?
I believe there may be one in Rochester, Ny if that is where you are. It’s on Monroe avenue.
I see that you have several stores thatvare Keto friendly. Can you make a Keto list for HEB and Walmart? Thank you
I am definitely working on Wal Mart! I haven’t seen an HEB since Texas, but I might do a Kroger too.
Yes! I would love either Walmart or a Kroger list
How about doing one for Sprouts Farmers Market?
Donnie, I shop there ALL the time (like 3-4 days a week). I could make a list there too. They don’t allow filming in their stores though, so I wouldn’t be able to make a video to go along with it.
Could you do a list for Sprouts??
I can make a list, but they do not allow filming in their stores so I will not be able to accompany it with a video though 🙁
I’ve shopped at TJs for years and can’t recommend the ground beef.
Love:
Chèvre goat cheese
White cheddar goat cheese
Macadamias
Unsweetened flavored sparkling waters
Cocoa (best ever)
African Smoke spice
TJs sea salt
Frozen grilled asparagus
Frozen ahi steak
Raw broccoli slaw
Okay. I need to stop. There’s so much yummy stuff there 🙂
Lots of awesome Suggestions Terri!
would love to see a krogers and walmart
Can you use Traders Joe and Sams list at Costco?It will help me out a lot.Thanks
Only on the meats really, because so many of the packaged products are store specific. But I do have the Costco List you can go off of.
Looks great!
This is so helpful. My friends keep telling me to go check out Trader Joe’s. This is going to make it so much easier.
I live in the San Diego area. I’ve been doing keto for 6 months and feel so much better. I shop at Barons Market and it would be great if you could make a list from that Grocery Store. The Store is a healthier style store. This would be great, it takes me so long to shop because I am reading labels and trying to make sure I am purchase the correct items.
Thank you – I love your list!
Good morning,is there a Keto store in Hamilton Ontario?
I love organic foods and I just saw what your store provide and wow is amazing,God Bless all of you.
TJ’s also has coconut oil in single serving packets, great for traveling and they have a wide variety of seasoning blends that come in grinders!
I wish they could open one of these stores here in Bangor Maine, as we are very limited on all these foods, and I love my new way of eating just wish the stores around here would have more groceries for us Keto people!! We are very limited…
Is there a Fresh Market or Sprouts list. That’s about the best I get in my area. Thanks
Thanks for the list. This makes it so much easier to shop!
I live in Mount Carmel PA id there a trader Joes near me?
Any chance of getting a keto shop in NZ ? Or do online orders ..?
Winn Dixie shopping list
Is there a keto shopping list for WINCO?
Not yet, but I do have a Winco that I can go to and make one soon 🙂
Are there any Trader Joe’s in or around northern Michigan??
