New photo Aldi is selling a Christmas dinner for two with all the trimmings for just £9 – and it’s MUCH cheaper than Tesco’s version

ALDI has launched its Christmas dinner in a box and it will only cost you £8.99.

The 900g ready meal serves two, so you can have a hassle- and leftover-free festive lunch.

Aldi’s ready prepared dinner costs less than £4.50 a head

The discounter supermarket has said it is responding to demand from customers for an “easy Christmas”.

The meal includes:

• British turkey slices


• Wiltshire cured ham


• Beef dripping Yorkshire puddings made in Yorkshire


• British pigs in blankets


• British pork stuffing balls


• Duck fat roast potatoes


• Honey roasted parsnips


• Chantenay carrots


• Brussels sprouts with bacon lardons


• Cranberry sauce


• Poultry stock and red wine gravy

The dish is only available in store, so you’ll have to head to your nearest Aldi to pick one up.

There are over 650 Aldi’s across the UK and you can find your nearest store on the Aldi website.

But Aldi isn’t the only supermarket to offer a boxed up Christmas dinner this year.

Tesco’s festive feast in a box comes with pudding and fizz too

Tesco has its own version, but it’s far more expensive at £35.

But the Tesco offering is far bigger, weighing 2.205kg compare to Aldi’s 900g.

Tesco’s version includes:

• Turkey breast fillet wrapped in bacon


• Roasted potatoes


• Vegetables


• Sausages wrapped in bacon


• Stuffing balls


• Yorkshire pudding


• Turkey gravy


• Cranberry sauce

It also comes with desserts and drinks, including:

• Christmas pudding made with breadcrumbs and tapioca starch, with brandy soaked glacé cherries, cider and CORVOISIER VS Cognac


• Brandy sauce


• Champagne


• Christmas crackers

The dinner is no longer available for pre-order, but you may be able to pick one up in store if you’re quick – we’ve asked Tesco to confirm if there are any meals left and we’ll update this story when we get a response.

Tesco’s meal costs more than Aldi but you do get more for your money

Iceland’s Christmas ready meals were the cheapest we could find

We couldn’t find any other supermarkets offering meals for two, but Iceland does have ready meal for one options.

The supermarket’s Perfect Plate Turkey & Ham dinner costs £2.69 for a 420g lunch.

It includes:

• Turkey breast


• Ham


• Parsley, sage and onion stuffing


• Roast potato


• Carrot


• Turnip and parsnip mash


• A rich chicken gravy

The meal can be microwaved in 10 minutes or cooked in the oven in 25 minutes.

Iceland’s second offering is a frozen meal for one turkey dinner, which costs £1.50 for 450g.

It includes:

• Turkey


• Potatoes


• Vegetables


• Sage and onion stuffing


• Pork cocktail sausage


• Cranberry gravy

Last year, the Co-op launched its own Christmas in a box, but a representative confirmed that the store will not be offering it again this year.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
