Why Aldi

For those who are new, I don’t work for Aldi and have no affiliation with them, but they’re my favourite grocery store. Like many, I used to shop at Aldi and then visit other stores for extras, which took too much time and money. So, I used my chef training to create recipes using only Aldi ingredients, and it’s been a success!

About the Aldi budget meal plan

Meal planning has been an integral part of my life since I was a kid. Being raised in a single-parent household on a fixed income, it was vital that we didn’t buy more than we needed and certainly never wasted anything. All of that means that I know a tonne about sticking to a budget and making a lot out of not very much. In times like these, both skills have come in handy. So, these meal plans are a way that I can help you navigate some waters you may not have a lot of experience with.

The Details

These meals serve a family of four, with some recipes providing leftovers for another meal. While no meal plan fits everyone perfectly, I’ve tried to make this as versatile as possible.

The shopping list includes everything you need, with repeated condiments and spices across recipes, so check your pantry to avoid doubling up.

This plan is flexible, leaving room for snacks, desserts, and even a night out. Feel free to adjust it to your schedule, and let me know if you're using these plans—it helps me decide if I should keep sharing them!
