Aldi is a favorite among budget grocery shoppers. Despite the store’s limited product selection, Aldi focuses on high-quality private-label products that often rival national brands in taste and price. One section that constantly wins over shoppers is the freezer aisle.
According to Aldi shoppers, here are six affordable frozen food items you can’t miss.
Earth Grown Vegan Southwestern Style Chipotle Black Bean Burgers
- Price: $2.39
The Earth Grown vegan chipotle black bean burgers come in a pack of four for under $3. Not only have shoppers taken to Reddit to praise the burgers, but Tori Hazelett, private chef and mom, has also raved about them on Business Insider. She commented that the chunks of whole black beans help improve their texture, and the Southwestern flavor has a kick of spice.
Breakfast Best Buttermilk and Vanilla Protein Waffles
- Price: $4.39
Shoppers on Reddit gave the Breakfast Best buttermilk and vanilla protein waffles a 10 out of 10. Redditors commented that they’re cheaper than the Kodiak version and just as good. The 100% whole grain waffles come in a pack of 10, with 12 grams of protein per serving.
Kris Osborne of Simply Recipes wrote that she toasts the waffles and adds fresh fruit and maple syrup. Sometimes, she even makes a dipper out of Greek yogurt and syrup or fresh berries to add even more protein.
Bremer Lasagna With Meat Sauce
- Price: $6.39
Looking for a quick and affordable dinner? The family-size Bremer lasagna with meat sauce is a cheaper option than the Stouffer’s version found in bigger grocery stores. Sporked gave the frozen meal a nine-spork rating out of ten, noting that the edges still get crispy in the microwave.
Whole & Simple Mediterranean Chicken Quinoa Bowl
- Price: $4.05
The Whole & Simple Mediterranean chicken quinoa bowl is perfect if you want something quick, affordable and healthy. “This is one of my go-tos for an office lunch. It’s flavorful and filling, with an appropriate amount of chicken and vegetables,” one shopper commented on Reddit.
The brand also sells the Southwest chicken bowl, which shoppers also love, for the same price.
Bremer Gyros Sandwich Kit
- Price: $10.99
There are Reddit posts dedicated to the love for the Bremer gyro sandwich kit. It comes with fully cooked gyro slices, 8 ounces of tzatziki sauce and five pita breads. A few shoppers commented that they’re seasonal, and Aldi’s website reads that they’re available only while supplies last. Grab some while you can!
Specially Selected Mussels in Natural Juices
- Price: $2.75
Frozen mussels aren’t an obvious choice, but shoppers stand behind these Specially Selected mussels, in particular the ones in natural juices.
“It’s so easy to make and I use it for a quick lunch. Cook mussels, cook some pasta, toss them together, add tons of chopped garlic and parsley,” one Redditor commented. Hazelett also wrote that she was incredibly skeptical of these mussels at first, but they were fresh and made the perfect appetizer for an at-home date night.
