Organic Bagged Avocados
What makes purchasing fresh avocados at Aldi worth it is they are almost always ready to be eaten. Zerbini recommends purchasing avocados in netted bags over the loose ones as they tend to be slightly cheaper.
Southern Grove Mixed Nuts
Mixed nuts, especially the Southern Grove Mixed Nuts, are always worth the purchase when shopping at Aldi. Zerbini said the pricing for mixed nuts at Aldi is 15% to 20% lower than at other stores she shops at.
“I get one salted container and one unsalted container and mix them to get a lightly salted product,” Zerbini said.
Friendly Farms Whole Milk Greek Yogurt
This is a staple in the Zerbini household. The 32-ounce container of Friendly Farms Whole Milk Greek Yogurt is priced right for the larger container to last all week.
Zerbini said the whole milk variety is creamier and less processed than nonfat and skim milk. It makes a great snack, the perfect ingredient for baking, substituted for sour cream or a topping for oatmeal.
