Aldi’s Budget-Friendly Thanksgiving Appetizer Selection

With Thanksgiving right around the corner, customers are looking for budget-friendly options without sacrificing taste or variety in their pre-meal spreads. Aldi, a well-known grocery chain, offers a selection of appetizers that promise to impress holiday guests at an affordable price.

In an effort to elevate the classic pigs in a blanket, Aldi’s Appetitos presents a twist on the traditional favorite with mini franks wrapped in a bagel-inspired puff pastry. Available for $4.99, these appetizers can be paired with Specially Selected‘s Horseradish Mustard, which costs $3.29.

As an alternative to typical cheese options, Aldi’s Specially Selected Tete De Moine Cheese is on offer for $5.49. Ideal for a charcuterie board or served with Sea Salt Scalloped Crackers ($1.99), this Swiss cheese has been praised by Aldi shoppers. Reddit user GSDBUZZ commended the flavor, describing it as «delicious» and «so so good.»

For those looking to include a savory pizza dish in their appetizer lineup, Specially Selected’s flatbread includes mustard creme fraiche, fried potatoes, bacon, kale, onions, and mozzarella cheese. Priced at $5.49, the 17.3-ounce pizza offers a cost-effective alternative to catered appetizers.

Seafood enthusiasts might enjoy the pub-style Fremont Fish Market offerings. With prices starting at $4.99 for an 11-ounce box of battered bites, customers can serve them alongside various dips such as Park Street Deli’s Dill Veggie Dip ($4.39).

Another noteworthy addition is the marinated mushrooms from Specially Selected, available at $3.49. Redditor Faelyn_Nightrain highlighted their appeal as a pairing with steak, adding that the mushrooms are a worthy addition to a gourmet appetizer spread.

Additional options include a Buffalo-style dip from Appetitos, priced at $4.99, Happy Farms‘ Cheese Party Tray for $5.19, and a selection of Specially Selected’s seeded breadsticks for $2.19.

Aldi’s selection extends to more decadent offerings such as truffle-infused cheese spread from Park Street Deli and a complete charcuterie board set from Aldi for those short on preparation time. These products are priced at $2.29 and $9.35 respectively.

Finally, mains turned into appetizers include Fremont Fish Market’s lobster-packed bites at $4.99 and quiches at the same price, which are ready to go from the freezer to the oven or microwave.

All these selections highlight Aldi’s commitment to offering quality products at competitive prices this holiday season. Customers are encouraged to browse their local stores as prices and availability may vary by location.
