Common Mistakes to Avoid

ALDI meal planning week of 1/6/19 - 1/12/19 I’m assuming that you already have pantry basics like cooking oil, common condiments, and spices. 🙂 *** Read through the recipes before you shop, to be sure you have the necessary pantry staples on hand for this week's ALDI menu plan. Wednesday: Garlic rosemary pork roast and potatoes. Apply quartered baby potatoes; reserve 1.5 cups chopped cooked pork for tomorrow's recipe; slice up apples on the side. (To save time tomorrow, also cook up a pot of rice for tomorrow night's recipe.) Thursday: Straightforward leftover pork fried rice with egg drop soup (apply four eggs; one per person).

Worth noting: friday: Chicken sausage dinner salad with avocado pepperoncini dressing. (Serve over a mixed kale + spring mix base instead of on romaine, throw in some small-chopped broccoli & carrot for added crunch, and substitute some green onion for the Parmesan.) On the side, straightforward cheesy enchilada rice topped with chopped green onion. Or, maybe less... 🙂 These meals will likely run you even less if you supplement this week’s ALDI purchases with clearance meat you already have in your freezer, pantry staples you picked up discounted, produce you already have on hand, and/or sale produce from your local produce market.

Is Free Aldi Meal Plan Worth It?

Where the Real Savings Hide

Remember that non-advertised prices were collected on 1/2/19 at my local store in the Chicago suburbs, but non-advertised prices and produce deals *may vary* by location & region. In either ad market, shop any time through Saturday and begin cooking on Sunday 1/6/19.
