Easter treats + mac & cheese pizza: ALDI Finds week of 3/22/23

admin

ALDI Finds for the week of 3/22/23 include ALDI fan gear, more Easter treats, spring-y kitchen, home, and garden items, and mac & cheese pizza. Check out this week’s picks below, and let me know what you want to Find.

Hey, let’s talk Easter foods some more — because how darn cute is this Emporium Selection Easter cheese? Pick from egg and chick shapes: Wensleydale with raspberry & white chocolate, Wensleydale with lemon & honey, or aged English cheddar, at $3.99 per 5.3 oz.

I guess it makes sense that an Easter Bunny would live in a cookie house, right? Pick up your own Benton’s Easter Bunny house kit for $8.99 this week, or grab a create-a-treat Easter eggs cookie kit for $5.99.

As always, name brand stuff isn’t generally a deal here. If you want to pick up Little Debbie Easter basket cakes for the same price as Walmart and save yourself an extra trip, though, they’re at ALDI for $2.58 this week. (On that same name brand note, Reese’s PB Puff Bunnies cereal will run you $2.99.)

What else says Hoppy Easter? Well, I guess an Our Specialty double layer carrot cake could do the trick. This one runs $7.99 for a 32 oz cake.

Prefer your carrot cake in cookie form? Look in the refrigerated Finds section for Bake Shop carrot cake cookies, $4.79.

Lastly, we have a couple of spring-themed treats this week that also scream Easter. Look for Lofthouse spring frosted sugar cookies for $3.95, as well as two-bite spring mini cupcakes for $3.89.

Both advertised and unadvertised ALDI prices can vary by store and by region. Here are more top ALDI Finds for the week of 3/22/23. You may also Find some on 3/19/23 in Sunday ad markets, or if your store tends to put products out early.

Yup, fan favorite mac & cheese deli pizza is back!

Five-packs of frozen crab cakes are also back this week. See my review from a while back, and do note that these are a mix of crab, mock crab, and fish, plus a lot of fillers.

The wild Gulf shrimp is really good, and easy to use because it’s peeled, deveined, and tail off. Try incorporating yours in:

…and so much more!

So these layered tostadas remind me of Taco Bell Mexican pizza — you?

The poblano broth is quite good! Try it if you’re making a taco soup or white chicken chili, to punch up the flavor even more.

Turkey breakfast sausage is back for a limited time, for those of you who use this instead of their pork sausage rolls.

Lastly, the Specially Selected all butter croissants are a bit better quality than the Bake Shop croissants that ALDI stocks as an everyday item.
