Prepping for the holidays can be exhausting and difficult, so we’ve put together a list of ALDI 2018 Best New Product Award Nominees the whole family will love!

A roaring chicken alternative. Sometimes half the battle of bringing your kids to family gatherings is wondering what they’ll eat! We understand that kids can be picky, so cook up some ALDI Kirkwood Dino Nuggets to keep their palate pleased and their interest level at a ‘roaring’ high.  These fully cooked and microwavable nuggets don’t just allow for easy prep and clean up, but they’re made with all white-meat and a healthy alternative to other kid-friendly foods!

A delicious cheesy surprise. If there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s that pasta is a no-brainer when it comes to feeding kids. The ALDI SimplyNature Organic Deluxe Macaroni & Cheese or Shells & Cheese are both so delicious, the kiddies won’t be able to resist. And you can relax, these pasta dishes are a great source of calcium and have zero trans fats, making it a healthier-than-normal option to serve to the young ones in your family.

A Californian Holiday treat. Who doesn’t love a nice cozy glass of red wine with your holiday dinner? This ALDI Runik Red Blend wine has flavors of dark berries, caramel, toasted oak and hints of vanilla. It’s the perfect pairing to your favorite holiday meal. Mix it with ALDI Season’s Choice Mango or Tropical blends of Frozen Fruit and ALDI Specially Selected Premium 100% Juices for a holiday sangria! The added benefit of the vitamins and antioxidants in the wine, fruit and juices will leave you feeling great after a big meal.

For the non-drinkers. ALDI Benner Peach or Diet Peach Tea is a tasty alternative. With only five calories per bottle in the diet version, it’s a great option for those also looking to minimize their overindulging during the holidays.

Zero guilt seasoning. Extra flavor oftentimes comes with extra calories, salt, or fat. But these ALDI Salt Free Seasonings by Stonemill will leave you surprised by how good everything tastes without all the added empty calories. Add to meats, vegetables, starches and even condiments! Offered in a variety of flavors, it’s the seasoning that keeps on giving.

Now that you have everyone in your family pleased with these added products, you can sit back, relax, and let your family entertain themselves. The greatest part of all is that there’s always leftovers 😉.
