Today we’re sharing some of the best healthy snacks at ALDI. If you havea an ALDI near you, definitely take advantage! It is a hidden gem for some healthy and affordable options! Here are a few of our favorites.
As always, this is not an all-inclusive list and not everyone will agree with all the snacks on the list. When I’m looking for snacks for my family, I try to focus on options that have at least 2g of both protein and fiber, as well as ones that are lower in added sugar. I typically aim for 6g of added sugar or less per serving but do make exceptions, especially if they have some protein and fiber.
