6 Things I Can’t Wait to Buy at Aldi in May

Aldi is here to serve up some more enticing bites during the month of May. They’re pulling out creations so shockingly creative, you’d think they were coming from a store like Trader Joe’s. One of these new Aldi finds made my jaw drop, so I saved that for last. Here are all the fun things coming to Aldi in May that I can’t wait to try.

Appetitos Everything Franks in a Blanket (5/6; $4.29)

Don’t worry if you’ve run out of your “Everything But The Bagel Sesame Seasoning” from Trader Joe’s. Aldi is saving you an extra step by putting everything seasoning on these pigs in a blanket so they’re ready to cook up straight from the freezer. We love an easy app! And we love pigs in a blanket.

Whole & Simple Gnocchi or Fusilli with Pesto Pasta (5/13; $3.99)

Two new pesto pastas are hitting the freezers at Aldi. You can choose between plump little gnocchi or fusilli noodles to go with the creamy basil sauce. Made with whole and simple ingredients, Aldi’s latest drop aims to get a bit of protein into your diet in a delicious way.

Park Street Deli Chipotle or Bacon Ranch Chicken Salad (5/13; $5.49)

Something about summer just screams chicken salad. Aldi seems to agree with me, because they’re releasing two new chicken salads just in time for the warmer months: chipotle and bacon ranch. Put a day-old croissant to good use by plopping a fat scoop of either of these inside.

Mama Cozzi’s Tuscan Chicken or Mediterranean Style Flatbread Pizza (5/20; $4.79)

If you can’t afford that big trip to Italy this year, get the next best thing. “The next best thing is a flatbread pizza from Aldi?” Yeah, obviously! Especially when you can get it topped with chicken, spinach, roasted tomatoes, and garlic (Tuscan Chicken) or tomatoes, black olives, spinach, artichokes, and feta cheese (Mediterranean Style).

Park Street Deli Dessert Dip (5/20; $2.99)

We love a good dip at Aldi—and especially an Aldi dessert dip. The latest two additions to Aldi’s lineup sound promising. Park Street Deli is releasing two dessert tips in May: Mexican Wedding Cookie and Horchata. Get a bag of cannoli chips and go to town on these sweets.

Breakfast Best Breakfast Bites French Toast Meatballs (5/27; $6.49)

Did they rip these straight out of my dreams? Meatballs with bits of french toast and a smattering of maple flavoring thrown in? What craftiness. What ingenuity. The mind that made this needs to be studied and worshipped. I’m supposed to eat them for breakfast? If you say so!
