Reggano Spaghetti Sauce

Aldi makes a great spaghetti sauce. We love this sauce. I use it for so many things; spaghetti, lasagna, baked ziti, chicken parmesan, you name it. It's a nice flavor, and doesn't have too much "stuff" in it. We like our sauce without chunks. This is perfect. And it's only 99 cents!

Apple Cinnamon Quick Bread Mix

 

I found this bread mix at Aldi this weekend. I had to have it. I love anything and everything apple. Especially in the fall. It did not disappoint.

 

 

I chose to make bread instead of muffins, and it was fabulous! The mix was only $1.99.

Savoritz Cheese Crackers

Yesterday I posted the "kids" cheese crackers, today I'll post about the "grown up" cheese crackers. These little cheese crackers are addicting. Very, very addicting. They're very similar to Cheez-Its, except in my opinion, much better! They are seriously really, really good. And they're only $1.29 for the box.

Savoritz 4 Kids Penguin Crackers

* * * Update: ShopAldi has moved to a new home! Come visit us!  * * *

I found these cute Penguin crackers during my last Aldi outing. I'll be honest, I bought them for myself. I love Goldfish crackers, so I figured these would be very similar. And I was right! They're cute and tasty. I kind of liked them a teeny bit more. And they were only $1.49. Pepperidge Farm Goldfish crackers generally run around $2, unless they're on sale.

Clancy's Kettle Chips & Onion Dip

I am a big potato chip fan. They are my downfall. I can live without chocolate, but potato chips? Not a chance. Aldi has a great variety of potato chips, and I've yet to find one I didn't like. Kettle chips seem to be all the rage, and these are fantastic. And they're also really good with their French Onion dip!

 

 



I can't believe I haven't raved about Aldi's French Onion Dip yet. Our whole family loves it! It goes great with not only regular chips, but with their tortilla chips too. That's one combination my husband introduced me too, and it's really good! This big container (16 oz!) of dip is only 99 cents. Wegmans has a French Onion Dip that's only 12 oz. and it's $1.39. This Aldi dip is a great deal!

Berryhill Hot Fudge Topping

I don't know what took me so long to find this at Aldi, but I finally discovered it. My husband loves hot fudge on his ice cream. And the price of this is almost half of what a similar jar is at Wegmans. It's only $1.99 at Aldi, and it tastes great!

Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese

Fall is here at Aldi! I saw this over the weekend and had to have it. I love fall and everything about fall, especially the food. This cream cheese has a wonderful pumpkin flavor to it, and it went very well with their mini whole wheat bagels. And it's only $1.49 for the container.
