Cold Brew Coffee — the ALDI Way!

If you have been looking at this Crofton Cold Brew Coffee System, it was still available in my store this morning — and totally worth the $9.99! Here’s how to use the Crofton cold brew coffee maker, plus a little review.

And here are a few of my favorite ALDI Finds for the week, from Moo Tubes to awesome Father’s Day cards for just $.99!

What have you found on clearance at ALDI lately? I had fun shopping clearance at my store last week, but those bakery clearance finds are so unfortunately tempting.

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

ALDI meal planning week of 6/9/19 – 6/15/19

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.

Things to know about the ALDI meal plans

A couple of notes

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.
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 6/2-6/8 in Sunday ad markets, and 6/5-6/11 in Wednesday ad markets). Non-advertised prices were collected on 6/5/19 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 6/9/19.
