Want to remember this? Save it for later!

The Aldi Meal Plan That Saves You Money AND Helps You Lose Weight!

I’m pretty sure that this Aldi Meal Plan is my new BFF, and I’m hoping it can be the same for you!

It’s designed to help you save money (because we’re shopping at the budget-friendly Aldi), lose some weight (because it follows the Trim Healthy Mama diet guidelines), and even save time (if you use Instacart)!

Plus, this Aldi Meal Plan is super easy!

If you’re looking to get healthy this year, plus save some money and time, this Aldi Diet Meal Plan is for you!

As a physician assistant turned stay-at-home mom, I want to help you make healthy choices become the automatic choice. This Aldi Healthy Meal Plan is full of fast, weight-loss friendly meals and snacks.

To make it even easier, feel free to double the dinner meals and eat leftovers for lunch. (That’s usually how I stick to THM in real life).

Aldi is a fantastic place to shop for Trim Healthy Mama diet items! They have fantastic bargains and great food choices, perfect for sticking with THM to a “T.”

It’s no wonder that Serene and Pearl themselves rave about Aldi on the THM podcast for on plan, budget-friendly prices (even if the love isn’t reciprocated!).

If you love Aldi, you’ll love this THM Aldi meal plan.

What Is a THM Aldi Meal Plan?

THM stands for the Trim Healthy Mama diet.

It’s an amazing, easy diet plan that is adaptable for every season of life.

I discovered THM when I was pregnant with my first little princess, and I’m so glad I did! I gained just the right amount of weight with my pregnancy, then lost all of the baby weight in just 4 months while nursing!

The balanced approach of THM plus the ability to make it non-weight-loss-y for my active husband and growing kiddos really appeals to me.

THM doesn’t cut out any food groups; you just eat them in easy combinations to help your body lose weight.

You can check out all the details for starting THM and my weight loss success story here.

Aldi Meal Plan

To stick with THM guidelines:

• Meals and snacks should have a protein source
• Meals/snacks are either low fat + healthy carbs (THM E) OR healthy fats + low carbs (THM S)
• To lose weight, have at least 3 hours in between S and E meals
• Eat every 2-3 hours to rev your metabolism
• Daily meals are listed first, then snacks lists provided afterwards

Sunday:

Breakfast– Scrambled Eggs with sauted veggies and cheese; bacon (THM S)

Lunch– Easy Black Bean Soup; toasted sprouted bread topped with Pepper Jack Happy Farms Spreadable Cheese Wedges; cucumber slices (THM E)

Dinner– Bacon-Wrapped Chicken (use chicken thighs for best results and double recipe for tomorrow’s lunch; skip the freezer steps), Company Cauliflower (use refined coconut oil or butter if you have it), Green Beans (we love the Green Fries from the THM Cookbook) (THM S)

Note on Chicken Recipe– This link didn’t work on 2/3/20; if you can’t get the recipe to pull up, here’s my version of it (this is seriously my favorite chicken recipe and I’m crushed that this site is gone!!):

• Defrost skinless, boneless chicken thighs.
• Drizzle lightly with olive oil and top with a dash of sea salt, garlic powder, and rosemary.
• Wrap each thigh with uncooked bacon and place in greased pan (it probably doesn’t need to be greased, but I always do just to make sure it doesn’t stick).
• Bake in preheated 400 degree oven for 25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
• Can place under broiler for 2-3 minutes if desired to crisp up bacon (but watch it closely).

Monday:

Breakfast– Pumpkin Baked Oatmeal, Vanilla Greek Yogurt (buy plain, fat free Greek yogurt, add a dash of vanilla extract and stevia to sweeten) (THM E)

Lunch– Salad topped with leftover, diced Bacon-Wrapped Chicken, Caesar dressing, shredded Parmesan, and crumbled Savoritz Parmesan Crisps (they make delicious little low carb, high protein croutons) (THM S)

Dinner– Sweet and Spicy Stirfry (E version)- double the rice for Wednesday’s dinner (THM E)

Tuesday:

Breakfast– Keto Chaffle Breakfast Sandwich (or pick your favorite Chaffle recipe from these 10 recipes— the Oreo one is ah-mazing!) (THM S)

Lunch– Low Fat BLT– use sprouted bread, turkey bacon, and Happy Farm Spreadable Cheese (instead of mayo); carrots and cucumbers; fat free plain Greek yogurt with stevia, vanilla extract, and berries’ 1-2 cups Aldi Organic Popcorn if desired (THM E)

Dinner– Taco Salad (double the taco meat for lunch tomorrow), can top with Savoritz Jalapeno Parmesan Crisps or pork rinds if desired for a yummy, spicy crunch (THM S)

Wednesday:

Breakfast– Overnight Stuffed French Toast topped with fat free plain Greek yogurt (with vanilla extract and stevia) and berries (THM E)

Lunch– Low carb tacos– use leftover taco meat rolled in Romaine lettuce leaves; pepper slices and Savoritz Jalapeno Parmesan Crisps with guacamole (THM S)

Dinner– Chicken Fried Double Rice (THM E)

Thursday:

Breakfast– Scrambled eggs in bacon bowls (we love these cutie little molds that make bacon into bowls), 1 slice sprouted toast with butter (THM S Helper with the toast)

Lunch– Sandwich with sprouted bread, lean deli meat, 1 slice turkey bacon, and Happy Farm Spreadable Cheese (instead of mayo); carrots and cucumbers; fat free plain Greek yogurt with stevia, vanilla extract, and berries’ 1-2 cups Aldi Organic Popcorn if desired (THM E)

Dinner– Spaghetti Squash and Meat Sauce Mini Recipe: (THM S)

• Brown grassfed ground beef
• Add no-sugar added tomato sauce (can add garlic, Italian seasoning, and/or pinch of stevia if needed)
• Bake spaghetti squash (directions here if needed)
• Scoop out roasted spaghetti squash into meat sauce. Mix well.
• Add spaghetti squash/meat sauce mixture back into spaghetti squash shells (you might have a little more mixture than you have space in the shells; save for a snack later if desired)
• Top with grated Parmesan cheese and broil for 2-4 minutes until cheese bubbles and darkens

Friday:

Breakfast– Healthy Pancakes (make a double batch so that you have leftovers for tomorrow) topped with fat free plain Greek yogurt (with vanilla extract and stevia) and berries (THM E)

Lunch– Nitrate-Free hot dogs with cheese (pan fry hot dogs and add a slice of sharp cheddar cheese to each hot dog, let cheese melt around hot dog, then transfer to plate; as the cheese cools, it crisps up and tastes like a homemade Cheez-it); side salad (THM S)

Dinner– The Best Low Carb Cauliflower Pizza (or try this yummy Low Carb Pizza Casserole if you’re short on time) and side salad (THM S)

Saturday:

Breakfast– Healthy McGriddles (THM E)

Lunch– Deli meat, cheese, lettuce, and ranch dressing rolled up in lettuce leaves; cheese whisps; cucumbers, peppers, and a few carrots with ranch dressing or guacamole; sugar free PB fudge (THM S)

Side Note: I really love the Aldi Coconut Cashew Crisps. Technically, they’re not on plan because they have Cassava flour. They’re also not considered weight loss friendly because they use coconut sugar as the main sweetener. I enjoy 2-3 crisps on occasion because they’re delicious and it’s nice to have a healthy treat that I didn’t have to make from scratch. They have not stalled my weight loss yet.

Dinner– Turkey, Black Bean, Sweet Potato Chili (THM E)
