ALDI DINNER IDEAS | CHINESE MEAL AT HOME

We have been shopping at Aldi for over a year now and we are still LOVING it. There are so many things that I love at Aldi, that I will one day post about (#aldifavorites), but today I wanted to share one of our go to meals from Aldi's. It is easy, cheap and makes for a quick clean up.


- General Tso's chicken
- White rice
- Mixed vegetables + edamame


The chicken takes about 20 minutes to cook, I boil the mixed vegetables, and the edamame can be steamed in the microwave...in the bag it comes in (my FAV). We usually cook one bag of chicken at a time and it is enough for 3 meals. If we want more leftovers for the week we'll make two bags. 



You just can't beat easy and delicious meal ideas, especially when they are budget friendly!

ALDI GROCERY HAUL | JUNE 2018

Today I am sharing my first grocery haul video. I love seeing these kind of videos on others blog's and Insta stories, so I thought I would share one too! I'll be sharing a post soon on all my favorites from Aldi.

 A couple of things to note:
- We usually buy our meat for the week at a local butcher shop here in town.
- I actually bought 3 non-grocery items, totaling to $18, which means we spent $82 on groceries. 
- A lot of these items will last us a couple of weeks.
- We already had some stuff on hand in the pantry or freezer for some of the meals listed below.
- Our lunches during the week are usually leftovers from dinner the previous night. 


Menu for this week:
Monday | Hamburgers, mixed vegetables, chips & salsa
Tuesday | Tacos and Mexican rice
Wednesday | Chinese Chicken and white rice 
Thursday | Grilled chicken, baked potato, mixed vegetables and salad
Friday | My Mema's spaghetti
