I stock up on ingredients that fit into the Mediterranean diet at Aldi.Kristan Schiller

As someone who follows the Mediterranean diet, I love grabbing essential ingredients at Aldi.
I spend $40 weekly and purchase items like tilapia, vegetables, and Dakota's Pride beans.

Each week, I make the 15-minute drive to my local Aldi in Cleveland to stock up on groceries.

I'm a single shopper on the Mediterranean diet, which my doctor recommended because I've inherited high cholesterol from my parents.

As a faithful pescatarian of about 10 years, I'm a huge fan of Aldi's fish and legume options.

Here are a few essentials I buy at Aldi each week.
