12 Foods I’m Buying in the Aldi Flyer This Week

If you want to save money at Aldi, you need to check out their weekly ad. Every Wednesday, Aldi releases their weekly circular for grocery specials, including price reductions on foods like meat, produce, and snacks, which you can find on the circular or by searching the red and white “Aldi Savers” signs throughout the store. I go to Aldi every week to do some of my grocery shopping, and this week’s Aldi ad (April 24 – April 30) had a few products that I really like. If you’re wondering what I picked up, here’s my list.

Remember that not all stores carry the same products, so the weekly specials at your local store can be slightly different from mine. Next week’s Aldi flyer will drop on May 1. Make sure to come back here, and I’ll let you know what’s on my shopping list.

1. Mighties Kiwi – $3.99 per 2 pounds

Kiwi is one of the underrated fruits. Each fuzzy little kiwi is packed with fiber, potassium, and vitamin C. I like mixing them into smoothies or eating them as-is with a spoon, especially in the spring and summer.

Right now, you can snag a pack of ten kiwis for just $3.99 thanks to this week’s Aldi Ad. If that sounds like too much kiwi to eat within a week or two, you can always freeze some for later.

2. Blackberries – $1.49 per 6 oz

Fresh blackberries can be pretty pricey, so I was shocked to see this 6 oz package on sale at Aldi for just $1.89 this week. With blackberry season about to ramp up, now’s the time to stock up.

As you can tell from the photo, these blackberries are just as succulent as the ones sold at Whole Foods for three or four times the price!

3. Fresh USDA Choice Seasoned Beef Chuck Roast for Birria – $5.29 per pound

This Aldi Savers item is one of the best deals in this week’s ad. For just $5.29 per pound, you can enjoy seasoned beef chuck roast, which is slow-cooker ready. All you need to do is turn on your Crock-Pot!

After this meat cooks low and slow for a few hours, it’ll be fork-tender and ready to be added to your tacos, burritos, nachos, or whatever other Mexican cuisine you plan to cook up for Cinco de Mayo.

4. Specially Selected Artisan Flatbread – $2.99

This next find on the flyer is usually on sale for $3.99, which is already a great deal, but it’s even sweeter this week at just $2.99 per pack! Each pack comes with two stone oven-baked artisan flatbreads. I usually use these to make personal pizzas since they’re the perfect size for one.

I’ve also ripped these into pieces and used them as a scooper for hummus and buffalo chicken dip before. You can even cut these into strips and use them as the bread for your panini. Basically, whatever you usually use regular bread for, try switching it out for this super cheap (and delicious) artisan flatbread.

5. Fresh Jumbo Pack Chicken Drumsticks – 89 cents per pound

This photo may not be overly appetizing, but that doesn’t change the fact that this item is a great deal on this week’s circular. For 89 cents per pound, you can enjoy fresh chicken drumsticks. The 12-pack pictured above comes out to just $5.70.

Bake these in the oven with a few spices and cooking oil, and you’ll have crispy, meaty drumsticks in under an hour. My go-to blend for chicken is smoked paprika, garlic, onion powder, oregano, a pinch of cayenne, and, of course, salt and pepper.

6. L’oven Fresh Deli Rolls – $2.65

L’oven is a dependable Aldi brand and my personal go-to for bread every week. Their deli rolls are currently on sale in this week’s ad for just $2.65. With six rolls per pack, each roll costs less than 50 cents.

These are incredibly versatile. You can use them to make a classic turkey and cheese sandwich or as a vessel for your meatball sub. They also freeze well if you want to stock up for later.

7. Happy Farms Deli-Sliced Muenster or Mozzarella Cheese – $1.89

Deli-sliced cheeses can easily reach $5 per pack nowadays, so getting a pack for $1.89 is almost unheard of. The best part? Aldi’s deli cheese tastes just as good (if not better) than the more expensive stuff.

Right now, you can get muenster or mozzarella deli-sliced cheese for less than $2. Each slice is pretty thick, too. I usually use these on sandwiches, but I’ve also used the mozzarella on top of homemade pizza and in meatball subs.

8. Happy Farms Mozzarella Shredded Cheese – $3.69

This week’s Aldi ad isn’t playing around when it comes to mozzarella. It’s also sold in shredded form. This one-pound bag goes for just $3.69. I use shredded mozzarella in almost every meal I cook – pasta, scrambled eggs, sandwiches, chicken, you name it, so I like to stock up whenever Aldi runs a sale on it.

Shredded cheese usually stays fresh in the fridge for a while, but you can freeze it if you think you won’t be able to finish the bag before it goes bad.

9. Kirkwood Chicken Fries – $5.09

Who doesn’t love chicken fries?! If you’ve never tried them, they’re just chicken nuggets in the shape of a french fry, yet they taste a thousand times better than their normally-shaped counterparts.

These are fully cooked, so you only need to pop them in the oven for a few minutes before they’re good to go. For $5.09 a bag, I picked up one to make a protein-packed snack or easy dinner entree.

10. Park Street Deli Pork or Chicken Egg Rolls – $3.59

I’ve always been impressed by Aldi’s Asian cuisine, and these egg rolls are no exception. For $3.59, you get six hefty egg rolls, either filled with chicken and veggies or pork and veggies.

These taste almost identical to the egg rolls at my local Chinese takeout place, and at about 50 cents per roll, they’re a lot less expensive, too.

11. Priano Classic Cheese or Spinach & Mozzarella Ravioli – $3.69

These refrigerated raviolis are the easiest dinner you’ll ever throw together. As you can tell from the photo, each ravioli pillow is fairly large and holds a good amount of filling.

You can choose between Five Cheese Ravioli, which features ricotta, parmesan, mozzarella, romano, and provolone, or Spinach & Mozzarella, which comes with – you guessed it – spinach and mozzarella.

These cook super quickly and are so flavorful that you’ll need just a bit of butter or olive oil to finish them (tomato sauce will work well, too.)

12. Bob Evans Refrigerated Mashed Potatoes – $3.99

I’m all for homemade mashed potatoes because I love being able to control how much butter, salt, and spice goes into them. But sometimes, I just want mashed potatoes without the chopping, boiling, and mashing. For those times, Bob Evans’ mashed potatoes are a solid replacement.

These are made with real butter, fresh potatoes, and no artificial flavors. The package is actually a lot bigger than it looks in the photo – it could easily feed up to 6 people. They’re ready to eat after a quick trip to the microwave, and you can add extra salt, pepper, or other fixings after warming up to make them feel more homemade.
