This year, ALDI has partnered with El Nido’s Culinary Training and Kitchen Academy to provide it’s students with the best quality foods by pledging a $2,000 donation in an effort for budding chefs to learn how to prepare fresh, wholesome foods on a budget. ALDI partnered with El Nido Family Centers as part of their commitment to provide support to the Los Angeles’ disadvantaged communities.
This past month, students in the summer Culinary Training and Kitchen Academy program created sweet and savory summer dishes for everyone to enjoy. The recipes were developed entirely by the students enrolled in the summer program using products from ALDI. Throughout the course of their program, the students will continue to hone their culinary craft by developing recipes for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
