7 Frozen Pizzas at Aldi That Are Better (And Cheaper) Than Takeout

While pizza prices soar, delivery times aren’t getting any shorter. If you want to keep up the tradition of an easy pizza night — or you’re just really reeling for a pizza pie — consider stretching your meal budget at Aldi. Not only do they have an assortment of really fantastic pizzas, but they’re all under $10.

You’ll save at least 50% on most carryout options, and you could have it ready in a pinch. We’ve gathered a list of the 8 incredible frozen pizzas at ALDI that will rival your favorite takeout options for both price and taste.

Price: $4.99

This pizza boasts thick, savory, Italian-style meatballs atop a bed of real mozzarella, romano, provolone, and parmesan cheeses.

Compared to a pizza and meatball appetizer, you’ll be paying over $20 at your local Italian spot. Plus, it’s ready in about 20 minutes when cooked conventionally.

Price: $5.95

If you bake this pizza according to the instructions, a lightly crisped crust will emerge from the oven, piled high with delicious toppings, perfectly balanced. Fans claim you can’t even taste the difference between the cauliflower and a classic bread crust.

The smooth blend of flavor and textures, with the tomato, basil, mozzarella, asiago, and fontina on top, makes this taste like a much more expensive, gourmet pizza. The bake time is also shorter on a cauliflower crust pizza, as this one is suggested to bake at 425 degrees for 10-12 minutes.

Price: $8.65

Aldi has prioritized bringing on some incredible legacy brands to diversify its options. If your store stocks a deep-dish, Chicago-style pizza from Gino’s East, don’t pass it up. The restaurant has been crafting buttery crusts stuffed with layers of fresh ingredients since 1966, and it does it well.

Deep dish pizzas do take a little longer to bake, so you’ll be waiting about 40-50 minutes to enjoy yours. But a price point of under $10 is absolutely unheard of, as grabbing the same pizza at Gino’s costs around three times that.

Price: $3.09

If you are looking for a pre-portioned snack or a change from your run-of-the-mill pizza pie, Mama Cozzi’s also offers a twist on pizza that features a sweet and zesty red sauce, mozzarella, and delicious pepperoni on top of a soft French loaf.

They are often compared to the Stouffer’s or Red Baron French bread pizza options, which cost you $3.99 and $4.29, respectively.

These pizzas have been fan favorites for years and are a true gem when you happen upon them. Try preparing them in an air fryer for a texture customers rave about. That way, you’ll have dinner ready in under 6 minutes.

Price: $7.69

How many delivery pizzas have over two and a half feet of cheese inside their crust?

Aldi sells an insanely flavorful, delicious, seven cheese pizza with an almost-decadent red sauce that truly rivals the Pizza Hut classic, which averages about $12.99 per pie.

The cheese takes center stage in this pie and you can pop it out of the oven after about 20 minutes, so you’ll be enjoying it far earlier than ordering takeout.

Price: $5.49

If you’re looking for something a little bit different, you can pick up a smoky, wood-fired pizza with pesto built into the crust for a gourmet experience unlike any other.

Steeped in savory Italian sausage, mushrooms, parmesan, onions, tomatoes, and mozzarella, the herbed crust brings an extra pop of flavorful zest to the table.

This pizza pie will clock in just around $6, while your local restaurant will sell a similar woodfired option for $21.99 or more.

Price: $4.29

Mama Cozzi’s rising crust pizzas have undergone some rebranding in the last couple of years. Luckily, the soft, chewy, cloud-like crust has not been compromised in the process.

In fact, while the price of this pizza has almost doubled in just a few short years, customers rave that the crust has actually improved in size and quality as well.

The pepperoni — made from beef, chicken, and pork — is flavorful and thick, balanced well with an even layer of mozzarella.

Price: $7.39

Since this iconic Chicago pizzeria was even named Home Run Inn, they were serving their fan-favorite, thin-crust pizza at the bar. A 12-inch pizza at one of their locations will run you $19.95, but you can now grab a frozen option at Aldi for much less.

Customers rave about the crust’s texture and the pizza’s taste. Exclaims One Redditor exclaims: “[This is] one of the best frozen pizza crusts I’ve had. Very flaky and buttery as opposed to the cardboard like crust on other frozen pizzas.”

Not every frozen pizza will give you the texture or flavor of true takeout or your favorite restaurant pizza. But these ones come close, and you can’t beat them for the price.

Not only can you save more on everyday essentials when you shop at Aldi, but you might find a new, budget-friendly takeout alternative to stock up on.
