Top Nine WW friendly finds in - ALDI!



First in a series of my top WW friendly finds in all the supermarkets! First up ALDI! I'm a regular shopper to ALDI the specials every week are fantastic especially if you're a soup maker, you can whip up a pot of soup for a couple of euros and freeze it! But here are some of the regular WW friendly buys that I get in my local Aldi! Comment below if you've got a favourite one to share! 
x



The Cowbelle LIGHT Squirty cream
This is 1SP for up to 13g which is perfect to top off a jelly or pop on a homemade scone... Be careful the regular pack is nearly identical so check it's got the 'light' on it... a mistake I've made myself! 




Bramwells Lighter than Light Mayonnaise
This is a god send! Most of the lighter than light mayos are great but the consistency of this one is the best to me, can't even tell the difference up to 60ml is 1SP! Plus you can add garlic, paprika anything you fancy to pimp it up! 




Dromod Boxty
This is a great substitute at the weekend for toast... it's so filling! 
Perfect with a poached egg on top!
50g portion - 2SP




The Village Bakery Toasting Muffins
Literally one of my favourite buys in ALDI (after the middle aisle goodies that I usually don't need!). If you're following me on FB or Instagram these are my regular weekend brunch favs! Dead ringer for a McDs breakfast muffin! 3SP per muffin.

 


Passions Deli Lentil Curls
For the crisp junkies... Lentil Curls! Now before you turn your nose up at them, try them! 3SP per pack and you're not going looking for them in the bag! I personally hate buying a bag of crisps and getting fresh air! Lots of flavour in these and there's a thai chilli version too for the same SPs! 




Ardagh Lighter Cheese
There's a couple of varieties of this cheese, the mozzarella one is fab for pizza wraps! There is a 50% lighter one but its like hens teeth trying to get it! This one is 30g - 3SP but so worth it! 




Brannans 50% less Bacon Medallions
Perfect for topping the muffin above! 
Even to chop up and add to your stirfrys or pasta sauces
1 medallion - 1SP 



Walls Honest Chips
For when you're in the mood for proper chipper chips these hit the spot! I don't know what magic that sheet in bag does but it works! Last on your Mayflower curry sauce and lick every last finger! 
per 100g - 5SP
per 250g (half bag) - 13SP




Free From Sourdough Cob
Lsst but most definitely not least... the Free From sourdough cob is fab! 
Each slice varies in SPs the larger ones are most definitely 3SP the smaller ones on the side are 2SP so best to weigh them and be 100% sure but they toast perfectly and are great for making open sandwiches and toasties! 






Granola from The Foodie Market...

I'm a big granola fan... note: if you do a search on the sidebar to the right you'll find lots of different granolas all SmartPointed... I love it just as a bit of crunch on my fruit and yogurt in the morning... so I've done these three granolas from The Foodie Market in Aldi in 15g, 30g and 45g portions too! I can confirm the honey and seed one is very yummy! Anyone else tried them out? x

There's a fab Irish pizza company called Saturday Pizzas and you'll find their handmade, wood fired pizzas in Aldi at the moment in the freezer section... (google their website for other stockists too!)  I've done the SPs per half and quarter pizza 'cause they're definitely big enough for sharing!

You can freeze them, and they keep in the fridge as well... Just add your passata and off you go with your toppings! It's got that lovely pizza based texture that's not all doughy something that's hard to find with a lot of pizza bases! Plus made in Ireland, and we need to support all our homegrown businesses at the moment! You'll find them in the fridge section in Aldi! Anyone else tried them? x

Different Gravy...

So, I was always about supporting Irish products on the blog over the years and now more so than ever, we need to get things up and running... get Irish businesses and families back up on their feet! A lovely reader on here messaged me to say she had tried the Porter & Nash gravy that's currently in Aldi (don't @ me that it's summer, I had the heating on last week!) and I got my paws on the caramelised onion & balsamic one just yesterday so I will report back! If you go to their website www.porterandnash.ie and check out the flip book recipe, there's loads of yummy ideas too! 

I've done the SPs for a 75ml portion (each pack serves 4) and for the whole pack... great value for loads of flavour if you're doing a big family meal or batch cooking! Made in Ireland & Vegan whats not to love!
