Aldi Haul: How These 11 Items Helped Me Lose 30 Pounds
Over the past year, I’ve embraced a low-carb lifestyle and lost 30 pounds. My secret weapon?
Aldi! Here are 11 Aldi finds that have become staples in my weight-loss journey:
- Kirkwood Fresh Ground Turkey: This versatile protein is a weeknight hero. I love it seasoned for taco salads or low-carb tacos.
- Dakota’s Pride Kidney Beans: While legumes can be higher in carbs, these kidney beans keep me feeling full and satisfied, especially in salads.
- Season’s Choice Riced Cauliflower: I’ve never been a fan of riced cauliflower until I tried this garlic and herb version.
It’s delicious as a risotto base with truffle oil or as fried rice with an egg and paleo teriyaki sauce.
- Happy Farms Cheese Blocks: Cheese is my go-to snack, and these blocks are both budget-friendly and satisfying.
- Rotisserie-Style Pulled Chicken: Another protein powerhouse! Perfect for salads, low-carb wraps, or even a barbecue flatbread pizza using a low-carb tortilla.
- Fresh Blueberries: Not a huge fruit fan, but these sweet and tart blueberries are an exception. They’re a great breakfast side or a light dessert with whipped cream.
- Spicy Guacamole: This pre-packaged guacamole is surprisingly good! I enjoy it with turkey taco salad or cucumber chips.
- Three-Pack of Green Peppers: Amazing value and quality! I add them to my morning eggs or pair them with chicken sausage.
- Deli-Sliced Honey Turkey Breast: Pre-sliced deli turkey makes for a quick and easy protein boost anytime.
- Friendly Farms Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk: My secret to a healthier “fancy” coffee.
I combine it with espresso and sugar-free syrup for a low-carb, low-calorie treat.
- Dill Pickle Chips: My absolute favorite!
These tangy, crunchy chips are incredibly low in calories – only 5 per serving!
