Spring hasn’t quite sprung yet, but I guess you could say it’s in the process of springing. And we know that’s the case because a bunch of “springy” foods are heading to Aldi this month: chocolate eggs for Easter, lemony desserts, a breakfast pizza covered in pork belly crumbles, which—okay, fine—doesn’t really fit the theme but deserves a shoutout all the same because it sounds good as hell. Here are six new Aldi finds we can’t wait to try while we’re waiting for spring to arrive.

Mama Cozzi’s Biscuit Crust Breakfast Pizzas
I kinda already spoiled this one, but also I didn’t because the important thing I didn’t mention above is that Mama Cozzi’s new breakfast pizzas come on a biscuit crust and that sounds pret-ty good. There’s one with country style gravy and sausage (and lots of cheese, don’t worry) and one with pork belly, bacon, peppers, and onions. A delicious, mildly unhinged way to start the day.
Breakfast Best Sausage & Gravy Biscuit Bites
Sorry, but I’m a sucker for sausage gravy, and if these are what they look like—Pizza Rolls made out of flaky biscuit dough and stuffed with sausage gravy—then I am very on board.
Season’s Choice Sweet Potato Casserole
This isn’t a new Aldi find, but it’s one of our faves and it’s back for Easter. Aldi’s frozen sweet potato casserole is basically a delicious dessert, thanks to the layer of sweet pralines atop the buttery, creamy sweet potato mash. I thought this only came out during the winter holidays, so seeing it in spring is a treat.
Mama Cozzi’s Cheeseburger Flatbread Pizza
This refrigerated take-and-bake pizza is topped with beef patty crumbles, tomatoes, pickles, onions, a ketchup and mustard sauce (oh ,and two kinds of cheese). Crazy…or just crazy enough to work? Only one way to find out.
Millville Carrot Cake Pancake Mix
Carrot cake pancakes sound pretty spiffy on their own, but this just-add-water mix also comes with a packet of cream cheese frosting. Yes, take my money.
Specially Selected Scallops Au Gratin
Yes, these sound like they would make a really good appetizer for Easter, but you don’t HAVE to feel compelled to share with company. Who says scallops on the half shell in a parmesan cheese and white wine cream sauce and little dabs of creamy mashed potatoes can’t be dinner for one?
