So, what ALDI fun do we have in store this week?
ALDI for the Serendipitous Win
Let’s start with ALDI Finds this week:
- From produce to patriotic decor, all of my favorite ALDI Finds, here.
And, how about my little SerendipiTable? Sometimes ALDI clearance just has your back, so here’s more on:
- My cute little mosaic table from ALDI (and, what the heck happened to my old patio table).
Found anything especially neat on clearance at your own ALDI recently? But now, let’s get back to the ALDI menu plan you’ve all been waiting for…
ALDI meal planning week of 6/23/19 – 6/29/19
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
ALDI meal plan — Start cooking 6/23/19
- Sunday: Slow cooker Italian pulled chicken sandwiches with mozzarella, and lemon Parmesan broccoli.
- Monday: Vegetarian lemon chickpea wraps (substitute romaine for spring mix, reserving two heads for Thurs.), plus roasted Parmesan green beans (be sure to reserve 4 oz for Weds). If you have any hungry carnivores in your family, they can also enjoy leftover Italian chicken on the last couple of wraps.
- Tuesday: Chicken fajita rice skillet (substitute two bell peppers for the mini ones). Top this with green onion & the rest of the grape tomatoes (chopped), with grapes on the side.
- Wednesday: Sweet & tangy chicken vegetable stir fry (substitute chili sauce and honey to taste for the seasonal red pepper jelly, and yellow onion for red). Serve over cooked rice topped w/ green onion, with cantaloupe slices on the side.
- Thursday: Chicken sausage dinner salad with avocado pepperoncini dressing, grapes.
- Friday: Easy flounder & asparagus packets with lemon rice.
- 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
- 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 6/16-6/22 in Sunday ad markets, and 6/19-6/25 in Wednesday ad markets). Non-advertised prices were collected on 6/19/19 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 6/23/19.

I love these meal plans. I check them almost every week. Since having s baby, I just plop the store list into insta cart and voila! The ingredients for a delicious, affordable, week of groceries in meal plan I don’t have to spend time thinking about is delivered to my door. If the was some way to auto ingest the weekly store list into instacart it would be the icing on the cake :)
