I'm going to start this blog off with the fact that no I do not work for Aldi but I love a bargain, both Propoints wise and penny wise and I find that Aldi do a great selection of their own brand products which match the above criteria.
Firstly their fruit and veg is generally priced extremely reasonable, in fact sometimes I wonder how they can even manage to get their prices so low but we all know how costly fruit can be even if it has a Propoints value of 0.
When I started in WeightWatchers, one of the hardest parts of the program for me was bread and Carbohydrates. I love them both and was a complete and utter processed carb fiend.
Nowadays I really try to limit the amount of bread I eat while still being able to get my carb fix.
Here is some of my vices that I just love.
Aldi Mediterranean Wraps
Weightwatchers Propoints Value 4
These are like a double sided wrap. Great for making pizza, quesadillas and of course as a wrap. These will really fill you up. There also available in Wholewheat aswel as white.
Aldi Soft Rolls
Weightwatchers Propoints Value 2
These are great little buns, perfect for little burger treats, sambos, or really beautiful in a real Irish delicateness with a packet of low Pro pointed Crisps to really get a carb treat.
Aldi White Finger Rolls
Weightwatchers Propoints Value 3
Gorgeous rolls, neither to small or large. Perfect for lunch and also available in brown and wholewheat.
Aldi Jam Donuts
Weightwatchers Propoints Value 4
These are really gorgeous. I love the jam in them. There is also only 4 in a pack which suits me better, because with other low pro pointed donuts, they generally come in a pack of 6 which for me, means their is some left over. As Oscar Wilde once said "I can resist everything, except temptation". If you have a sweat tooth and work better using the method of damage control for break out days, your gonna love these.
Aldi Rice Cakes
Weightwatchers Propoints Value 2
I can hear the debate to eat rice cake or eat cardboard? These are really tasty. I bought the chocolate coated ones and they were delicious. The chocolate was really gorgeous and it was a thick layer of it for only 2 Propoints per cake, which I thought was great value. They also come in white chocolate and yogurt layer.
Aldi also have large Rice crackers and each one has a pro point value of 1. There available in corn, sea salt and multi grain.
All of these products are Irish produced which is terrific and all priced under 2 euro. This is a win win situation.
Enjoy the Niptuck way, so you don't have too!
Amazing info, thank you so much!
