ABC, Lowcountry Live: Healthy and Affordable Holiday Entertaining with ALDI

ALDI + MIA SYN
 

The holidays are a fun and festive time but it can be stressful if you are hosting. That’s why I am so excited to partner with ALDI. It truly is a one-stop destination for all of your holiday entertaining needs – that’s high quality and affordable.

Gluten free party platter

An easy gluten free party platter includes cheese, veggies, fresh fruit and liveGfree crackers and pretzels. These are part of ALDI’s exclusive gluten-free line that includes everything from baking mixes to breads and pastas. It recently earned the Good Housekeeping Seal of approval – which is considered the gold standard in helping to guide shoppers, so you know they are good!

Side: Roasted Acorn Squash and Brussels Sprouts

For our side dish, I shared roasted acorn squash and Brussels sprouts – both in season right now! ALDI recently announced its largest product expansion ever, including a 40 percent increase in fresh food selection and that includes more fresh produce and organic options.

Main: Grilled Pear and Apple Pork Tenderloin

For our main dish, I shared grilled pear and apple pork tenderloin. Pork tenderloin is a good protein option for the holidays because it’s flavorful but a leaner cut of meat. ALDI has a great selection of proteins including their Never Any! Line – which also earned the Good Housekeeping Seal of approval –it includes fresh meat products free from antibiotics and added hormones.

Sweet Treat: Cranberry and Almond Dark Chocolate Bark

It’s not the holidays without a sweet treat – I shared a cranberry and almond dark chocolate bark. Dark chocolate is lower in sugar and higher in flavanol antioxidants than the milk variety – this also makes a great hostess gift!

Wines: Peaks & Tides Cabernet Sauvignon and Grandi Mori Valdobbiadene Prosecco

ALDI is especially known for their award-winning and affordable wines. I shared the Peaks & Tides Cabernet Sauvignon – which pairs great with your Thanksgiving fare. You can find all these recipes plus a story locator at ALDI.us.
