Trader Joe’s is yet again expanding its lineup of holiday appetizers with the debut of its new Herbes de Provence Triangles.
As you might have guessed from the name, Trader Joe's latest party appetizer features a classic French blend of aromatic Herbes de Provence. The new offering starts with buttery, multi-layered puff pastry, which is then topped with herbs along with a bit of garlic and onion. The savory combination is then cut into triangles and baked until crisp and airy. The result is a savory, yet light and flaky appetizer.
Perfect for adding to a cheese plate or paired with a creamy dip luke hummus or Tzatziki. You can even pair them with a big bowl of soup to make a full meal out of it.
