Aldi Grill Masterpiece Meal

If you’re looking for a quick and versatile way to whip up delicious meals without using your oven, this Aldi find is a total game-changer. From burgers to cookies, it’s perfect for more than just pizza!

Main Course: Quick & Juicy Burgers

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground beef (or pre-formed burger patties)
  • Salt, pepper, and seasoning of your choice
  • Burger buns
  • Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, cheese, pickles, etc.

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your Aldi Grill – Follow the instructions on your grill to get it to the desired heat for grilling burgers (usually medium-high).
  2. Prepare the burgers – If you’re using fresh ground beef, form them into patties. Season both sides generously with salt, pepper, and your favorite burger seasoning.
  3. Grill the burgers – Place the patties onto the grill. Grill for about 4-6 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness and how well done you like your burgers.
  4. Add cheese (optional) – If adding cheese, place a slice on top of the burger in the last minute of grilling. Let it melt.
  5. Toast the buns (optional) – Quickly toast the burger buns on the grill for a nice, crisp texture.
  6. Assemble – Add your favorite toppings to your burger buns, then place the juicy patties in between.

Quick Tip for Cleaning Grease:
After grilling the burgers, the cleanup can be a bit greasy. Use expired tortillas or old bread slices to soak up excess grease. Then, wipe down the grill with paper towels a few times. To remove any stuck-on bits, add a little water to create steam, which helps lift off the grease. Wipe once more and your grill is ready for next time!

Dessert: M&M Cookies (Nut-Free)

Ingredients:

  • 1 pack of M&M’s (or chocolate chips, if preferred)
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the grill (or your alternative oven) to around 350°F.
  2. Mix dry ingredients – In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Cream the butter and sugars – In a separate bowl, beat softened butter with both sugars until light and fluffy.
  4. Add egg and vanilla – Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  5. Combine dry and wet ingredients – Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the M&M’s.
  6. Form cookies – Scoop out cookie dough balls and place them on a greased cookie sheet.
  7. Grill-bake the cookies – Place the cookies on your Aldi grill or air fryer oven and cook for 8-12 minutes, checking often to prevent overcooking. They should be golden brown on the edges and soft in the middle.

Cookie Clean-Up Tip:
Unlike the burgers, cleaning after baking cookies is much easier. A simple wipe with a damp paper towel should do the trick.

Final Thoughts:

This Aldi grill is perfect for pizzas, but don’t be afraid to experiment with other meals. While it may not be the best for burgers due to the grease, it’s still a fantastic all-around appliance for quick meals and easy desserts.

Pro Tip: Stick with using your air fryer oven for burgers if you want to avoid extra cleanup hassle!
