Our Top Aldi Easter Brunch and Dinner Ideas

Aldi Easter brunch

Do you have your Easter menu planned yet? Whether you’re celebrating with breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner on that Sunday, Aldi sells everything you need to make a fantastic Easter meal without having to shop anywhere else.

We’re sharing some of our personal favorites that you might want to showcase on your Easter table this year. Most of these are products you can find at Aldi all year, while a few such as the ham and bone-in turkey breast are Seasonal Products that are available during the holiday season.

Breakfast or Brunch:

Pastries:

Main courses:

Appetizers and Sides:

  • Emporium Selection Easter Cheese — For several years now, Aldi has sold various cheeses in wax molds shaped like Easter eggs or chicks. Flavors over the years have included white chocolate and raspberry, aged cheddar, or a honey and lemon option. This cheese is an Aldi Find, which means it’s only in stores for a short time, so don’t delay if you want to buy it.
  • Cheese — While we’re on the subject of cheese, Aldi sells all kinds, from wedges to cubes to blocks. You’ll find cheddar, Gruyere, Gouda, and even goat cheese. Whether you want something gourmet or something more standard, Aldi sells it.
  • Fresh fruit and veggies — Aldi stocks the usual: berries, grapes, melons, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, etc.
  • Tuscan Garden Large Black Olives — If you’re setting out a charcuterie board, it wouldn’t be complete without olives. Aldi has recently reformulated its olives, and not necessarily for the better, but they’re not bad.
  • Little Salad Bar Caesar Salad Kit — Our family often eats this salad several times a week. It has some of the best Caesar dressing we’ve had.
  • Chef’s Cupboard Stuffing Mix — If you need some bready goodness to go with your turkey or ham, Aldi’s got it, and it’s pretty good.

Dessert:

  • Specially Selected Macarons — Found in the Regular Buy freezer section, these delectable little sandwich cookies from Belgium are not to be missed. They’ll also look great on a fancy Easter table display.
  • My/Mo Mochi Ice Cream — These are small balls of ice cream covered with Japanese mochi (pounded sticky rice), which is a sweet, soft dough. Flavors can vary, but they usually include standard favorites such as chocolate and strawberry, along with the more novel mango. They make a nice light, sweet finish to any special meal.
  • Belmont Cheesecake — These are typically sold year round in packs containing two slices, with a choice of New York Style, Strawberry Swirl, and Turtle flavors. You also might find limited-time whole cheesecakes or cheesecake bites in various flavors in the Aldi Find freezer section during the Easter season.
  • Belmont Deep Dish Pie Crust — If homemade pie is more your thing, Aldi sells these in the freezer section, and you can fill them with whatever you want.
  • Baker’s Corner Cherry Pie Filling — If you need easy canned filling for your pie crusts, Aldi’s got it. It’s also great as an ice cream topping.
  • Belmont Ice Cream — And if you prefer your pie à la mode, Aldi has several ice cream options to satisfy. We highly recommend these. Aldi also sells some light ice cream options. Or if you’re an ice cream purist, you might like Aldi’s Specially Selected Super Premium Ice Cream that contains only whole ingredients such as milk, cream, and vanilla.
  • Friendly Farms Whipped Dairy Topping — If you’d rather top your pie with whipped cream, Aldi’s got that, too. This is the fun stuff in the can that you spray.
  • Friendly Farms Whipped Topping — The classic stuff in a plastic tub. Good for topping all kinds of desserts with.
  • Our Specialty Double Layer Carrot Cake — This cake is not only gorgeous but also delicious. It’s a staple of our Easter dessert spread in my house. It typically shows up as a one-time Aldi Find right before Easter, so keep an eye out.

Candy for Baskets:

  • Knoppers Milk Hazelnut Wafers — A treat from Germany, these are like a cross between a wafer cookie and a candy bar, with a creamy hazelnut filling. Try them. We think you’ll like them.
  • Choceur Chocolate Crème Eggs with Spoon (Chocolate Dip Eggs) — These feature small chocolate eggs containing a milk crème or cookies and crème filling. They’re packaged in cute little cartons and come with plastic spoons for eating the egg filling. They usually are an Aldi Find for one week during the time leading up to Easter, so watch the weekly Aldi ad to spot them.
  • Choceur Peanut Butter Bunnies — Like Reese’s, but the Aldi house brand, and they’re quite good.

  1. Our family likes lamb for Easter. Aldi sells small leg of lamb roasts, marinated & plain, we cut off the twine & throw them on the grill with little potatoes & asparagus. It is delicious! Add a fruit salad & you have a meal. Guests bring wine & dessert.
