QUICK COOKING RICE PACKETS

Aldi Brown Rice and Quinoa Packets — Aldi Quiona & Brown Rice Packets

Quick cooking rice packets are such a great pantry staple, they are quick, easy, and delicious. My two favorites: Simply Nature 90 Second Quinoa & Brown Rice (pictured here) and Simply Nature Seven Grains.

Nutrition highlight: Both varieties are whole grain, which delivers fiber that helps to keep you full and provide longer lasting energy.

EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL

Aldi has great priced extra virgin olive oil! Per ounce it is only about $0.35, which is less per ounce than other comparable olive oils.

Extra virgin olive oil is a great staple to keep on hand for sautéing, roasting, and use in sauces and salad dressings.

Nutrition highlight: Extra virgin olive oil is made from the first press of the olives, making it the most nutrient-rich olive oil.

EVERYTHING BAGEL SEASONING

Everything bagel spice is a flavor-packed and has become a staple I love to use in recipes, like Everything Smashed Potatoes, and as a topper for avocado toast.

Also check out the new flavor varieties, including Jalapeno Everything Bagel Seasoning, which gives a mild spice kick!

Nutrition highlight: Only 5 calories per serving, it adds a flavor boost with minimal calories.

MINI AVOCADOS

What is great about mini avocados is they are the perfect size to top slices of toast, add to tacos, or to whip up a small batch of guacamole.

Nutrition Highlight: Mini avocados have about half the calories of whole avocados with about 160 calories per mini avocado. Plus, avocados are packed with heart healthy fats, along with fiber!
