The flatbread just looks so pretty, doesn’t it?
If you’ve been waiting for the flaxseed and chia peanut butter to come back, stock up now!
And yes, this week’s other theme is keto: If you’ve been waiting for the keto-friendly bagels and wraps, hurry on in for those. (These were both on an endcap by the registers at my store, if you don’t spot them in the bakery section.)
Turkey Creek dill pickle or chili lime pork rinds are also back, at $1.49 per bag: If you are a chicharrones fan, try these different flavors for a change of pace!
Parmesan crisps are also quite keto-friendly, and quite delicious. They’re also quite easy to make at home instead, if you feel so inspired.
Asian Week Finds
You’ll see why these Finds get their own separate section this week, because: Yum. 🙂 First off, you can try out some different flavors of My/Mochi ice cream ($4.88 a box), including green tea, guava, and coconut.
Fusia potstickers are delicious, and will run you $3.99 per 16 oz bag this week. Fry these up in a pan on your stovetop, or use them in recipes such as shortcut wonton soup with spinach. (This soup also uses ALDI sesame oil, which we’ll talk about next!)
Don’t these little samosas look yummy? Journey to India mini samosas come in chicken tikka or vegetable flavor, but are a bit pricey at $4.69 per 10.2 oz box.
If you are looking to cook up your own pho or ramen, you’re covered here as well. Fusia pho or ramen broth is $1.79 per 32 oz box, while fusia ramen or pho noodles will run you $2.89 per 8 oz package.
Other Asian Week Finds this week include:
- Annie Chun noodle bowls, $2.54

- Fusia various Asian sauces, $2.45

- Maruchan Yakisoba beef or chicken, see price in store
What are you cooking up this week?
Sesame oil and what to make with it
Carlini toasted sesame oil gets its very OWN separate section, because it’s great. If you don’t yet have a bottle of this in your pantry, make a point of picking some up — $5.99 is a great price for a 16.9 oz bottle, and a little goes a long way, so it will last you a while.
See our ALDI sesame oil review from last year, and use it in SO many recipes… Including just a few:
- 30 minute chicken broccoli mushroom stir fry
- Egg roll in a noodle bowl
- Chicken thigh stir fry with asparagus
- 20 minute ground beef & broccoli stir fry
- Garlic green beans with soy sauce
- Carrot stir fry with green onions
- Easy leftover pork fried rice
- Ramen noodle stir fry
Just a touch of sesame oil adds so much to everything from stir fry to fried rice.
Forget takeout, and enjoy that flavor at home: Sesame oil is part of the secret.
