For food blogger and former restaurant chef Nadia Aidi, the holidays are an opportunity to exercise her culinary creativity for family and friends. She recently stopped by Albertsons® to pick up her favorite freezer staples for inventing impromptu recipes.
In her recent haul, Nadia got four of her freezer musts for holiday entertaining: frozen pomegranate arils, frozen phyllo dough, frozen shrimp, and frozen cheese pizza. The pomegranate arils are a tart finishing touch to serve over baked brie, while the phyllo is destined for individual cups of dip.
The pizza makes a great base for whatever fun toppings she has on hand and can be sliced into bites for easier sharing. And that shrimp will get sautéed with white wine and herbs for a delicious “dip” served with fresh bread. With Albertsons for U™, Nadia can get personalized deals and digital coupons, so she can save time and money right in the app (and jog her memory with past purchases).
