Just a little ALDI-related news before we get started:

From Chile Mocha Brownies to Veggie Dudes Potato Peelers — so much ALDI this week!

chile mocha brownies

Looking for an easy all-ALDI dessert recipe to go with any of this week’s dinners? Check out Chile. Mocha. Brownies! Such a simple way to jazz up a box of Baker’s Corner brownie mix, and most excellent with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

veggie dudes

Here are a few of my favorite ALDI Finds this week — including these adorable Veggie Dudes tools, at just $2.49 each. 

all-di ALDI news

ALL-DI news that’s fit to print this week? Check out articles on their new stores in China & near Walmart’s HQ (!), and more.

Lastly, one main reason I started ALDI meal planning and cooking at home was because of my efforts to limit added sugar and processed foods. So, on the tangentially ALDI note: What’s Rachel Reading? Year of No Sugar, plus real food articles. I’m interested to hear your thoughts, too! Has shopping at ALDI helped your own home cooking / better eating efforts?

But now, let’s get back to the ALDI menu plan you’ve all been waiting for…

ALDI meal planning week of 6/16/19 – 6/22/19

I’m assuming that you already have pantry basics like cooking oil, common condiments, and spices. *** Read through the recipes before you shop, to make sure you have the necessary pantry staples on hand for this week’s ALDI menu plan.

Six Easy Dinners from ALDI for $60.00

cheesy summer corn soup

ALDI meal plan — Start cooking 6/16/19

  • Sunday: Father’s Day BBQ — Grill up the burgers and serve on buns with sliced tomato, onion, and a little shredded cheese. On the side, half of the watermelon, plus chips & salsa (reserve 1 cup salsa for Tues).
  • Monday: Cheesy summer corn soup, using 4.5 ears, watermelon, and roasted or grilled asparagus. (To oven roast: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and spread trimmed asparagus out on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat, then season with sea salt and black pepper and roast for 10 minutes, or until slightly browned and crisp-tender.)
  • Tuesday: Zucchini Spanish rice burrito bowls with chicken & mushrooms topped with sour cream (substitute tenderloin & skip the slicing lengthwise; watch the cooking time), plus strawberries and grapes.
  • Wednesday: Skillet chicken drumsticks with corn, zucchini, and tomatoes (use 3.5 ears), along with cups of leftover summer corn soup.
  • Thursday: Chicken and bell pepper saute, served over cooked rice (can substitute Italian seasoning and a little garlic powder for the garlic pepper). Slice up the pineapple. 
  • Friday: Cheesy sausage, rice, and spinach skillet, grapes.
  • Saturday: Leftovers, family pizza night (ALDI sells a nice big take-and-bake pizza), eat out, or date night.

Things to know about the ALDI meal plans

A couple of notes

  1. I try not to repeat main dish recipes more often than once a month, but you will see favorite easy recipes come up again in these weekly ALDI meal plans as the same meats and produce items come up again on sale. Part of the fun of meal planning lies in mixing old stand-bys with something new each week.
  2. If one or more of these recipes isn’t to your taste, or if you have other ingredients to use, you can adapt the recipes in this ALDI meal plan to your family’s preferences — or just use the ideas here to supplement your own meal planning. See: Pantry staples to stock up on and how to modify a meal plan for your family.

** Ad markets and dates

This week’s ALDI meal plan reflects prices from the current week’s ad (running 6/9-6/15 in Sunday ad markets, and 6/12-6/18 in Wednesday ad markets). Non-advertised prices were collected on 6/12/19 at my local store in the Chicago suburbs, but non-advertised prices and produce deals *may vary* by location & region. In either ad market, shop any time through Saturday and start cooking on Sunday 6/16/19.

Thanks for the great meal plans and recipes!! I've been using them kinda loosely (we don't eat dairy) since they opened near my home in Bentonville and you are saving me sooo much time and money. My SO works at WM and there is one on nearly every corner here, but I buy almost all my groceries from Aldi now. :)
