Season's Choice Corn Ribs

Price: $3.49 

Some days, we need an appetizer to munch on while dinner is being prepared, and corn ribs are the new food fad you'll want to try. They are strips of corn on the cob that can be eaten like ribs, but enthusiasts say the cut allows the seasoning flavors to seep into every bite. 


Bremer Three Cheese Chicken or Cheesy Ranch Chicken Skillet

Price: $4.59

Take the bag out of the freezer, dump everything into a skillet, wait a few minutes, and have a meal ready. These skillet bags have chicken, pasta, and vegetables covered in cheese sauce or a creamy ranch. 

Specially Selected Fire Roasted Vegetables or Vegetable Medley

Price: $3.49

The vegetable medley this week may leave you wondering who smacked that broccoli with the Fibonacci sequence, but the alien-looking fractal cauliflower is actually Romanesco — and you've got to try it. Its texture is something between broccoli and cauliflower, with a nuttier flavor. Drizzle some browned butter over the top to enhance the flavor.

A delicious meal needs an equally delicious sweet treat to cleanse the palate. Aldi always offers a large selection of ice creams, but this week, a non-dairy alternative made with oat milk is added to the freezer section. 

Bottom line

Making a whole meal for the family in minutes for $15 is exactly the sort of dinner solution that frees up your time and energy to focus on enjoying the shared dinner time — and still leaves plenty of time in the evenings to relax.

Shopping at Aldi can save time and money because they offer affordable solutions that meet modern needs, freeing up more of your grocery budget to try new things, like fractal-shaped broccoli. This entire meal costs $15.06, and for roughly the same price, there are a few options that can be swapped depending on your family's tastes and preferences.
