How to Make a Family-Friendly Meal From ALDI for 5 People For Only $12!

 

This budget and family-friendly meal only took 20-25 minutes, costs $12, and feeds 5 people! We found everything at ALDI, but you might be able to find it for the same price at a store near you. My kids loved it, and so did my wife and I! We will definitely be making it again.
