Are you tired of spending a fortune on groceries? Aldi has a solution for you! With their high-quality and affordable ingredients, you can create delicious meals without breaking the bank. Here are some meal ideas to get you started:
1. One-Pot Wonder Pasta – Cook pasta according to package directions, but reserve 1 cup of the pasta water. In a large pot, cook sliced sausages, diced onions, and minced garlic until the sausages are browned and the onions are translucent. Add a can of diced tomatoes, a teaspoon of dried basil, a tablespoon of tomato paste, and the reserved pasta water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes. Add the cooked pasta and toss to combine. Top with grated Parmesan cheese and serve.
2. Black Bean and Corn Salad – In a mixing bowl, combine canned black beans, canned corn, diced red bell pepper, diced red onion, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro. Dress with a mixture of olive oil, vinegar, honey, and lime juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve as a side dish or over a bed of lettuce for a delicious and filling salad.
3. Lemon Chicken and Roasted Vegetables – Season boneless, skinless chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and lemon zest. Bake in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes, or until fully cooked. Meanwhile, toss sliced zucchini, yellow squash, cherry tomatoes, and sliced red onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until tender and slightly charred. Serve the chicken and vegetables together for a complete meal.
These meal ideas are just the beginning! With Aldi’s wide selection of fresh produce, meat, and pantry staples, the possibilities are endless. Happy cooking!
