    Frozen blueberries. They're crazy cheap there compared to other grocery stores. They're not super filling they're good when you get there munchies

    Not really low calorie, but some of my staples that I get are the flavored nuts (though they only get eaten at home), the Elevation bars (the coconut ones are my favorites), and my husband has become fond of some of their salame and cheeses.

    We also always have 2-3 cases of their frut waters.

    hummous and flatbreads. the raw energy bars are nice and not too high in calories. Fruit and veggies. Rice cakes or crackers with cream cheese or some form of low cal spread. The little individual bags of vegetable based crisps and popcorn are nice too.

    They sell bottled water which is about as low-calorie as you can get.

    Their fat free Greek yogurt is just like Fage but way cheaper.
    Hike bars and That’s it bars are good energy snacks for fuelling long rides and runs.
    The skinny Thai Carrot Soup is delicious. Under 90c per portion and I add cooked chicken breast, mixed green veggies like broccoli etc then have a 100cal sandwich thin on the side to dip in.
    The Salt & Vinegar pea snacks are yummy, about 80cal. Good protein but also high fat.
    Individual bags of popcorn.

    Frozen riced cauliflower - so I can make may favorite rice dishes for way fewer calories.
    Journey to India sauces - not super low calorie (1/2 cup is 40-70 cals), but they make plain chicken and vegetables taste like fancy Indian food.
    They have lower-calorie Korean sauces that I just got yesterday, haven't tried them yet but I expect good things.

    They have knock off Laughing cow cheese wedges. 25 calories per wedge. Taste great too.

    Not a snack, but my favourite Aldi buys are the Slim Free range ready meals. They are large, have really good, fresh ingredients, are incredibly tasty and only cost £1.99 each. My faves are sweet potato curry and bolognese ragu. Poured over a huge plate of veg and topped with half-fat creme fraiche, they still come in at around 400 or so.

    Things I always make sure I have:

    Fresh spinach
    Fresh berries - raspberries, blackberries, blueberries
    Celery
    1% cottage cheese (has better macro split than fat-free)
    100-cal Greek yogurts
    Rice cakes

    @Kathryn247 - What kind of vegetables do you use in that recipe?
