The Aldi Finds aisle this month has the cutest summer drinking glasses, a floating cooler for your pool and a 3-in-1 grilling prep cutting board.
Once school lets out for the year, I have a hard time concentrating on work. Hearing kids laugh as they ride their bikes to the pool or park always reminds me of my own carefree summer breaks. Luckily, I can already tell that June’s Aldi Finds are going to help me add a bit of that summertime whimsy to my daily routine. I’ll be hosting grilling parties as much as possible, mixing up patio season drinks and curating the perfect playlist to go with everything.
Usually when I write these Aldi Finds stories, I limit myself to 10 items. That was nearly impossible to do this month, so I’ve included 15. There are all sorts of impressive gadgets that will help make grill prep easier and keep appetizers chilled in the hot sun. I’m most looking forward to the countertop ice maker. Between iced coffees and my latest obsession, raspberry sherbet Olipop, I’ll need a lot of ice!
Every month, Aldi drops a slew of new items and brings back some customer favorites. Since the grocery store is famous for its motto of “here today, gone tomorrow,” I’ve turned my passion into an inside scoop so you can stock up while things last. Here are the most exciting Aldi Finds hitting shelves in June.

Reggano Protein Pasta
ICYMI, protein pasta is having its moment in the sun. And nothing says summer quite like a heaping portion of pasta salad. Kick up the protein levels in your next creation with one of Aldi’s new pastas. It’s available in rotini and penne shapes and boasts 10 grams of protein per serving.

Crofton Master Cutting Board
Keep things simple with this 3-in-1 cutting board. It comes with a bamboo and a plastic cutting board, so you can keep all your meat and veggies separate while prepping ingredients. And the bottom is a container that can hold vegetables for snacking or serve as additional prep space. This is going to become my go-to camping cooking station.

Bremer Ranch Pickle Chips
Any time I go out to eat at a new restaurant, I scan the appetizer section of the menu to see if it has pickle chips. There is nothing more refreshing than dunking hot, crispy fried pickles into homemade ranch dressing. Now I don’t even have to leave my house to enjoy that feeling! Keeping these in the freezer will allow me to indulge my pickle craving at a moment’s notice.

The Grill Master Collection
Nothing says summer quite like grilling. And now Aldi has a big box of meats that can make weeknight dinners come together quickly. This variety box contains just over 7 pounds of meat portioned into various cuts of beef, pork and chicken. It’s great to throw in your freezer so you always have a few protein options ready. Personally, I’m starting with the bacon-wrapped beef top sirloin steaks.

Ambiano Countertop Ice Maker
This is exactly what has been missing from my kitchen! Having plenty of ice ready to go at a moment’s notice is my biggest dream. I don’t have the storage space available in my freezer for this, so moving the ice maker to the countertop is borderline genius. Whether I’m cracking open a fresh Diet Coke dupe or making an iced coffee, this ice maker is going to be my new summer BFF.
This is the eighth year in a row that Aldi has partnered with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation to feature a variety of fun, lemon-themed products to help fundraise for childhood cancer research and awareness. And this baked lemon ricotta cheese immediately caught my eye—mainly because lemon and ricotta are an absolutely perfect duo. It’s a sweet and tangy addition to any recipe or for eating straight out of the package.

ALSF Lemon Cream Almonds
I am going to be so bold as to declare the almond my favorite snacking nut. It’s a tough choice, but really I love nothing more than an almond covered in chocolate or yogurt. Even better? An almond drenched in a creamy lemon coating. It’s tart, sweet and delicious. I will absolutely be stocking up on these and stashing them in my pantry so I can enjoy a little taste of sunshine year-round.

Crofton Cast Iron 2-in-1 Deep Skillet
I actually can’t believe I don’t already own something like this skillet set. The shallow skillet can be used on its own or as a lid for the deep skillet. This is genius for campfire cooking, but also great to break out on the grill. They can store easily, too, by nesting inside one another. If you take care of your cast iron skillets, they’ll last a lifetime—so $19.99 is quite a steal.

Aldi Seasoned Sweet Potato Tots
It’s downright impossible to narrow down my favorite way to eat a potato. Everyone knows that they’re one of the most versatile foods around—in fact, Dolly Parton eats them every day. I have a soft spot for sweet potatoes, though, and enjoy them in every form. Sweet potato tots are such a perfect side dish for pretty much any meal. I also love them as a late-night snack.

Crofton Icon Drinking Glasses
I think Aldi has pretty much everyone beat when it comes to cute, budget-friendly seasonal items. I love this rocket pop version because it’s perfect for Fourth of July parties, but there are other varieties available too! Imagine sipping on a glass of sangria that’s dotted with little lemons or strawberries. Mix and match the glasses for the ultimate summer drinking vibe.

Crofton Floating Cooler
This is the kind of pool accessory that I would have dreamed of having when I was a kid. Granted, I still don’t have a pool, but my neighbor does! Filling up this floating cooler with our favorite canned cocktails and as much fruit and snacks as we can fit sounds like so much fun. Honestly, it’s kind of giving Love Island villa vibes—I can just lounge in a pool and sip on a drink while I work on my tan.
Cost: $39.99

Breakfast Best Blueberry Stuffed Waffles
What’s better than a waffle? Well, stuffed waffles of course! This is pretty much the easiest, most delicious breakfast-on-the-go that exists. You don’t have to deal with all the stickiness of syrup since the filling provides a nice pop of flavor and moisture to complement the rich, buttery brioche waffle. I can actually imagine warming these up for dessert, too, and serving alongside some vanilla ice cream.
Cost: $4.99

Specially Selected Brioche Pretzel Rolls
The perfect bun does exist, actually. If a brioche bun is widely touted as the ultimate way to top off a burger or hot dog, then imagine my excitement when I saw that Aldi created a pretzel version. The sweet-and-salty combination is about to be my most reached-for grilling accoutrement, and I cannot wait to sink my teeth into one. Honestly, I might even eat them right out of the bag.
Cost: $4.59

Crofton Dip or Salad Chiller
This one item has single-handedly saved me from hosting stress. I love having a big, fresh salad available for guests, but too often it ends up wilting in the heat. And the same can be said of a big batch of dip—no one wants one that’s been sitting in the sun all afternoon. Luckily, this chiller comes with a separate ice compartment, so anything you set on top stays cool and crisp.

Crofton Cast Iron Skinny Grill Pan
I have a Crofton griddle that I use constantly for making salmon and chicken on my stovetop. It gives all my meat and fish those beautiful sear marks that make them look much fancier than they actually are. So if you’re in the market for one, definitely add this to your cart. It has a slim frame that stores easily, and it’s also perfect for anyone who has a small cooking space—like in an RV cooking setup.
Cost: $14.99
