As you may have noticed, we just had our first visit to a local ALDI. ALDI is currently my newest favorite grocery place that carries affordable organic products, produce, and more at up to 50 percent* less than a regular grocery store.* In our last post, we received the ALDI Delivered package as part of my partnership with ALDI, and we were impressed. We needed to try all ALDI products for the next few days for our family dinners. We immediately made some yummy chicken seasoned with paprika, over a black bean and corn spinach salad. While the kids really enjoyed the SimplyNature® Squeezable Fruit Blends and Choceur Milk Chocolate with Hazelnuts.
The ALDI Delivered package is not a service or available to the public but they were happy to send me a package so I could sample products and share with you how awesome and delicious ALDI products are. The package came with recipes, shopping list, a wine list and more inspiration.
ALDI prices are what we look for in grocery budget. As you may now know, ALDI carry a small inventory of items, encourages you to bring your own bags or buy reusable ones at check out and you have to deposit a quarter to be able to use a shopping cart, which are all things that make ALDI prices affordable.
Included in our ALDI delivered package we received four amazing recipes: Garden Bean Salad, Quinoa Lentil Tacos, and Lemon Fruit Bruschetta. We immediately wanted to try the Blueberry Chia Pudding that I knew my kiddos will love. The Blueberry ChiaPudding was perfect for us since my little girl is in a dairy-free and gluten free diet.
