ALDI Finds for the week of 12/28/22 include lentil lasagna sheets, meal prep containers, seaweed snacks, protein powder, specialty planners, an adjustable mandoline, and SO much more. Check out this week’s picks below, and let me know what you want to Find!
Looking for healthier ingredients in the New Year? These will of course vary depending on your own definition of “healthy,” but ALDI’s taking a stab at it. Look, for instance, for Simply Nature green or yellow lentil lasagna sheets: $3.79 per 8 oz package.
I’m excited that the Simply Nature seaweed snacks are back in store this week ($1.89 for each set of three), because these go so nicely in my homemade ahi tuna poke bowls!
What else? Well, how about a family pack of fresh organic 85/15 grass-fed ground beef at $4.99/lb (sold in a 4-lb pack for $19.96). Other healthy-trending meal ingredient Finds this week include Thomas Farms fresh grass-fed stew meat, at $6.49/lb, and Simply Nature organic ready-to-serve 90-second jasmine or basmati rice, $2.19 per 8.5 oz pouch.
As always, both advertised and unadvertised ALDI prices can vary by store and by region. Here are more of the top ALDI Finds for the week of 12/28/22. (You may also Find some on 12/26/22 in Sunday ad markets, or if your store tends to put products out early.)

ALDI kitchen Finds this week
We have so many kitchen items this week, that I thought I’d pull them out into their own little separate section. Let’s start with the Crofton adjustable mandoline slicer for $9.99, because we have been using the heck out of ours from last year. Be sure to use the hand guard, in order to avoid slicing yourself, though.
The Crofton to-go assortment is back, for easily packable lunches. (I got mine on clearance a while back, but they’re listed $2.99 per 3-piece condiment or snack set in the current ad.)
If you’re looking at that frozen fruit for smoothies I mentioned earlier, the Ambiano premium nutrition blender will run you $34.99 this week.
Choose from single or double compartment in the Crofton meal prep containers, noting that the total of 20 pieces includes the lids, so that you actually get 10 complete containers here.
Same thing with this 6-piece glass container set; that includes the acacia lids, so you get three complete containers for that $14.99 price.
The Crofton portion perfect collapsible meal kit is microwave safe, if one of your goals is to meal prep lunches this year, and they’re $4.99 apiece. Other kitchen Finds this week include:
- Ambiano juice extractor or cold press juicer, $39.99
- Crofton covered fridge trays, $14.99
- Crofton prep & go or juice & store jar, $6.99
- Crofton reusable straws, $4.99
- Crofton airtight snack jar or shake & store container set, $8.99
- Crofton 3-pack rotating lock container set, $14.99
- Crofton ceramic fry pan or saucepan, $14.99
- Crofton 6-piece glass bowl set with acacia lids, $14.99
- Crofton banana hanger with fruit basket, $12.99
- Crofton stretch pods assortment, $7.99
- Crofton antibacterial cutting board, $4.99
- Crofton marble & acacia kitchen assortment, $12.99
Apparently this week’s kitchen-ish theme is: Back to home cooking and meal prep.
Every time they have these banana hanger fruit baskets out in my store, they sit there for a while and then go on clearance. We’ll see what happens this go-round, but it’s probably because $12.99 seems like a lot for what you get here.
