Price: $3.29

Kick pizza night up a notch with freshly baked garlic knots. Aldi's L'oven Fresh brand comes in convenient, ready-to-bake packaging, making it easy to toss in the oven with a pizza for a meal that tastes like a pizzeria order but at a lower cost.

Caramel Apple Blossoms

Price: $3.85

These fancy little blossom-shaped apple pies are delicious and look like an upscale dessert, but come ready to pop in the oven for a warm and freshly baked comfort dessert in cold weather.

Redditor leafypatches says, "Trust me, I only went in for one thing and left with 4 boxes plus ice cream." Relatable! They stock these a couple times a year, so you'll want to grab a few when you see them.

Al Limone Spaghetti

Price: $3.69

Open the bag, dump in a skillet, stir, and you have a delicious upscale creamy pasta entree ready to go. It's ready in minutes and offers a lemony-chive twist to the classic Alfredo taste. A Reddit user said, "They should carry this year-round, it's so freaking good! Best pre-made spaghetti I've ever had."

Crustless Sandwich

Price: $3.29

Aldi's Uncrustables dupe is made in the same facility as Walmart's Great Value dupe, so you'll be getting the same product for a bit less from Aldi. Each sandwich is also slightly larger than the name-brand original, so you'll want to keep a few in your freezer for days when you need a quick snack.

Pepper Jack, Swiss and Bacon Stuffed Chicken Entrée

Price: $3.99

These flavorful little chicken pockets are so easy to toss in the oven for a delicious dinner entree, and come out perfectly roasted and oozing with a thick, rich, and creamy cheese blend.

Redditor Optimal_Possible_225 says, "They only stock once a year from what I've learned, which sucks because I love them. I buy all I can get my hands on when they do finally come in stock!"

Pepperoni Pizza Snacks

Price: $6.39

Everybody loves a pizza roll. There's something about the fresh, hot, lava-like filling that tastes like pizza and nostalgia rolled into one. You'll get about twice as many pizza rolls for the same price as Totino's name-brand option at Wegman's, so it's a great deal.

Deep Dish Cheese Pizza

Price: $9.15

The Gino's East Deep Dish Pizza will remind you why they're called "pizza pies" because it's a thick, rich pie dripping with cheese and sauce. It's so thick you'll want to eat it with a knife and fork — and it's totally worth it. Reddit user RipePeach says "Gotta like deep dish to enjoy this. Thick crust, heaps of ooey gooey cheese, plenty of sauce!! For a frozen pizza, it's a 10 in my book."

Shepherd's Pie

Price: $7.49

Is there anything better than a full meal in one container that can be tossed in the oven for a convenient dinner?

Aldi's shepherd's pie has an excellent potato-to-meat-to-vegetable ratio and comes in a family-size portion. The flavor is pretty good right out of the box, but it's also easy to dress it up a bit with some additional seasonings and cheddar or pepper jack on top.

Premium Apple Mascarpone Strudel

Price: $4.75

Apple pie aficionados will want to keep a few of these strudels in the freezer. They're large enough for a family-sized dessert and taste like a creamy apple pie because of the mascarpone addition.

Customers on Reddit say, "This was amazing, I would definitely buy again. The puff pastry was flaky and crunchy and the filling was just divine."

Holiday Assorted Macarons

Price: $7.99

Macarons are delicious, light, and fluffy French meringue-like cookies that are notoriously difficult to make from scratch and on the pricey side to purchase from a bakery.

Aldi offers a frozen option that only needs to be thawed about 30 minutes before serving. The regularly scheduled macarons are generally available year-round, but the holiday pack is larger and has more seasonal flavors.

Lasagna with Meat Sauce

Price: $6.59

"I can't tell the difference between it and a Stouffer's lasagna," says Reddit user CthulusLittleAngel. It's family-sized and easy to throw in the oven for those nights you want a hearty meal with next to no effort, and it's usually about half the price of the leading name brand.

Mini Eclairs Dessert Pastries

Price: $5.49

Aldi's mini eclairs are a dupe of the Delizza brand, but are about $2 less for the same amount. Shoppers say the eclairs are about equal in quality, and since they're stored frozen, they can last a long while — if you don't eat them, that is!

Cream Cheese Stuffed Jalapenos

Price: $3.29

Sitting around watching the game calls for snacks, and Aldi's jalapeño poppers are delicious, especially when cooked in an air fryer. Redditors swear by dipping them in sweet Thai chili sauce for an added pop of flavor.

Frozen Broccoli Bake

Price: $3.74

Broccoli and cheese are basically the perfect pairing, and Aldi always uses the best floret cuts, so you don't get all stalk. Shoppers suggest dressing up the dish by tossing in some ham or French-fried onions for a crispy texture.

Vegan Southwestern Style Chipotle Black Bean Burgers

Courtesy of Aldi chipotle black bean burgers

Price: $4.19

These vegan burgers are dupes of the MorningStar Farms Spicy Black Bean Burgers, which are a great neutral option for mixed-diet meals. They don't taste like they're pretending to be meat, which makes them more appealing to non-vegans. Shoppers suggest crisping the patties up in an air fryer for a perfect texture.

Bottom line

Shopping at Aldi is a great way to save money on groceries, and part of what helps them keep costs low is rotating a large stock of seasonal items. This is great for those who enjoy a varied diet, but it also leads many to stockpile their frozen favorites in case they don't return for a while.
