I love Aldi + an Easy, Yummy Recipe!
April shared this on her blog a while back and it is a great resource if you are new to shopping at Aldi!
I thought it would be fun to show you how I use the items I get at Aldi in different recipes. The proof is in the pudding, right?
My parents are here for a quick visit and I wanted to make a quick but delicious, hearty Sunday meal for them. I decided on open faced meatball sandwiches. YUM. Here are the ingredients I used- all from Aldi!
I used 2 pounds of fresh, 93/7 ground turkey , 2 packets of Italian seasoning (found by the salad dressing) and 3/4 cups (this is approximate :) of shredded mozzarella cheese to make the meatball mixture. SO easy and super tasty. I lined a cookie sheet with foil, sprayed it with cooking spray and rolled meatballs about 2 inches in diameter. You can obviously make your meatballs as big or little as you would like! I baked them at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes. I then put them in a casserole dish and poured a jar of Simply Nature Organic marinara sauce over them. When it was time to eat, I popped the meatballs and sauce in the oven to warm up while I buttered slices of Italian bread (or you could brush with olive oil), found in their bread section. After I got the bread buttered, I took out the meatballs and sauce and put the bread under the broiler to get just a tad toasted. Then, I assembled my sandwiches by putting 3-4 meatballs on a slice of toasted bread, put marinara sauce on top of the meatballs and then sprinkled mozzarella cheese on top of the sauce. I put the sandwiches back under the broiler until the cheese was bubbly. My mom made a delicious, fresh salad with Aldi's Artisan salad mix, english (seedless) cucumbers, grape tomatoes and carrots and that is what we served alongside the sandwiches. It was such a tasty, healthy and filling meal! The best part- it was easy!

I get really excited about being able to feed my family healthy, quality foods and still be able to stay within our grocery budget. Aldi for the win!!

I live in Texas and we just recently got an Aldi in our town and I love it. I don't buy everything from there but I do get a lot of grocery items from there and your right there prices can not be beat.
