Seafood is always on the menu for a traditional Australian Christmas. But with the current cost of living crisis, fresh seafood from the markets might be out of the scope of the regular family budget. That’s where ALDI‘s seafood selection has you covered.

Everyone’s favourite budget supermarket is releasing its Christmas spread next week (Wednesday, 25 October), which includes a range of seafood staples and gourmet options at budget-friendly prices.
Aldi’s Christmas seafood selection
ALDI’s seafood selection offers a range of tasty and budget-friendly products to boost your festive spread without hitting your hip pocket too hard.
Whether you want something simple, you can make fabulous, like 1kg of frozen Australian Tiger Prawns for $26.99, or something ready for you to heat and serve like the Lobster Tails with Garlic Butter Glaze (2pk/$34.99), ALDI’s Christmas seafood range is guaranteed to make your life a whole lot easier.
Save your money, time and energy for the gifts and other festivities by picking up an eight-pack of Lobster Puff Pastry canapes and one of Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese Puff Pastry Canapes for only $6.99 each.
The starters aren’t all wrapped in pastry, though, so if you’re avoiding carbs, you can still grab a bargain with frozen maple bacon-wrapped scallops or garlic and herb butterflied prawns for $13.99.
Moving past the appetisers to the main event, you can still pick something up from the ALDI Christmas range to make your menu tastier without too much effort.
There is a Salmon Wellington with Cheese and Dill sauce for $15.99, like the classic beef Wellington, which consists of a fillet of salmon wrapped in pastry with a cheese and dill sauce or a simple Atlantic Salmon Side with Toscana Style Herb crust for $22.99.
If you need a pre-Christmas party catered or just looking to get ahead for the big day, pop down to ALDI from the 25th October and stock up on a few seafood specials.
