Aldi shoppers can now recreate their favourite Greek dishes at home, from kebabs to gyros.
The meal kits are hitting shelves on Monday, May 12 and will be available for just £3.19.
Shoppers can choose from Chicken, Doner Kebab, and Lamb Kofta Gyros.
Aldi is bringing the taste of Greece home with these tasty fakeaway dinners.
A popular street food staple in Greece, gyros typically feature marinated meat, fries, and sauces wrapped in warm flatbread.
Now, Aldi is making it easier than ever for shoppers to recreate this famous dish at home.
The Chicken Gyros Kit was previously available in Aldi stores, proving popular with customers.
It will now return alongside two brand-new flavours for summer — Doner Kebab and Lamb Kofta.
A comfort-food classic, the original kit includes chargrilled smoked chicken, seasoned fries, stone-baked flatbread, and a cooling tzatziki cucumber yoghurt sauce.
Meanwhile the Doner Kebab Gyros Kit includes tender slices of roast beef with cumin, black pepper, and garlic.
This is served with crispy fries, flatbread, and a sweet and sour pickled red chilli pepper sauce.
Or you can opt for the Lamb Kofta Gyros Kit, which consists of sweet roasted lamb with notes of mint, rosemary, garlic, and cracked black pepper.
The kit also includes crispy French fries and a classic stone-baked flatbread with a roasted red pepper, tomato, and garlic sauce.
All of the kits will be available from the freezer section of Aldi, making them an easy meal to throw together after a busy summer day.
And Greek food is as popular as ever, with #Gyrosrecipe surpassing 77.5 million views on TikTok recently.
So why not test your hand at whipping up your own fakeaway meal this summer?
And Aldi shoppers can pick up "delicious" .
Food fans have also shared their excitement as another M&S dupe returns to Aldi shelves.
And Aldi also caused a stir among customers after discontinuing a deli favourite.
But a "delicious" £5.99 alcohol is hitting Aldi shelves ahead of the summer.

UK vehicle making hits lowest level since 1953, excluding Covid
British car and van production in the first half of this year has hit its lowest level since 1953, excluding the industry shutdown during output fell 7.3% in the six months to June while the closure of Vauhall's Luton van plant helped drive van production down 45%, data from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) over tariffs in the US – the UK industry's second biggest market – meant some firms slowed or stopped production in the first half of this said the US-UK tariff deal which has since come into effect could help confidence, while the government said its electric vehicle (EV) grants would "boost" the industry. The SMMT welcomed the EV grants, but it said the new system lacked clarity and had been introduced without consulting the Hawes, SMMT chief executive, said the half year production figures were "depressing" but that he hoped that the first half of this year marked "the nadir" for the UK auto industry.A deal with the US to reduce tariffs from 27.5% to 10% was announced in May came into effect on 30 June, with SMMT recording a small rise in vehicle production in June. However, the SMMT does not expect to return to 2021 production levels of one million vehicles by the end of the Hawes said that the government's target of 1.3 million vehicles per year by 2035 was "quite some ambition from where we are", adding that "we clearly require at least one, if not two, new entrants to come into UK production" to hit the of electrified vehicles rose 1.8% with battery, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid vehicles accounting for a record of more than two in five of vehicles week the government confirmed it will reintroduce grants of up to £3,750 on some EVs are priced at or below £37, the SMMT welcomed the return of incentives that were abolished in 2022, there is widespread confusion about which vehicles will qualify for the eligibility and level of discount will be determined by the amount of carbon emitted in the production of the vehicle and its battery. They will only be offered to manufacturers that have verified science-based targets with thresholds the government has not yet expected that Chinese and Korean vehicles will not meet the criteria but little else is clear."The difficulty is, we don't know. Nobody knows, but nobody, not even government, really knows yet, which models and which brands will qualify," said Mr Hawes."I think the industry is still trying to get clarity behind its application. Right now your dealer cannot tell you whether the model you are considering is eligible."He said clarity was needed soon as September is the second biggest month for new car registrations.A transport department spokesperson said it expects "dozens of models to be eligible for the electric car grant, which will provide a substantial boost for the industry and save drivers thousands of pounds"."We want the discounts to become available to drivers as soon as possible, and we are engaging extensively with vehicle manufacturers and have published guidance to help them apply as easily as possible," they £650m of grant money will be awarded on a first come first served basis.

Badenoch says she would copy drastic cuts of Argentina's president
Kemi Badenoch has signalled that she wants to use Argentina's state-cutting president as the template to revive Britain's economy and her own party's fortunes. The Conservative leader said that her plans to reduce government spending would take inspiration from Javier Milei, adding that she was 'terrified' by the size of Britain's debt. Badenoch also batted away speculation that she may not survive in post until the next general election, saying that if she paid attention to briefings by some Tory MPs about her being deposed, she would 'lose her mind'. It came after a mini-reshuffle of the Conservative frontbench, in which Badenoch brought back her former rival in the leadership contest, Sir James Cleverly, to shadow the housing secretary, Angela Rayner. Badenoch was asked on Thursday if Britain needed a Milei, whom she has previously paid tribute to, and whether she was such a leader. 'Yes and yes,' she told the Financial Times in an interview. 'Milei is the template.' • Javier Milei's chainsaw economics in Argentina could lead the way Milei has overseen massive spending cuts since he came to power, just over a year and a half ago. His trademark prop is a chainsaw, to demonstrate his approach to public spending. Measures implemented in Argentina under his leadership include dismissing tens of thousands of state employees, slashing pensions and freezing dozens of infrastructure projects. The tribute to Milei this week will lead to speculation that Badenoch will push for significant spending cuts — however, where these would fall remains unclear. She said: 'It's not about cutting bits of the state.' Badenoch warned against 'top slicing' spending, and said instead: 'It's about looking at what the state does, why it does it.' Despite the Tories having trailed in the opinion polls for months, Badenoch warned her party not to emulate Nigel Farage's party. She said: 'We cannot be a repository for disenchantment,' instead saying the Tories should be about 'offering hope, fixing problems'. • What Kemi Badenoch's reshuffle says about the state of the Tories Badenoch praised Milei in her leadership pitch to Tory members at the party conference last autumn, saying that he gave a speech with 'very similar themes' to one she delivered two years ago, and hoped to have been his source of inspiration. In January, Badenoch also said that Argentina was 'serious about freeing business from red tape'. At prime minister's questions at the start of the year, she said 'Argentina is taking a chainsaw to regulations', in an attempt to persuade Sir Keir Starmer to drop his plans to strengthen workers' rights that she argued would stifle business growth.
