What's your favorite meal to cook at home?
Interviewers will often use icebreakers to start the interview, so expect a fun, food-related question like this one! The interviewer wants to learn if you are passionate about cooking or just enjoy a good home-cooked meal. After all, you will be working with food! Share your favorite home-cooked meal and, if you can, incorporate some ingredients from the Aldi store where you shop.
"We really love to cook in our home! I enjoy making Aldi's grass-fed beef into cheeseburgers on the grill with asparagus and lemon slices. I am always open to new recipes and love to try new things!"
"I love to make a big Sunday breakfast for everyone! I typically make bacon, eggs, hashbrowns, pancakes, and biscuits. I do love to pick up fresh fruit from Aldi to serve with breakfast too."
Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Try talking a bit more about why you enjoy making that particular meal. If you have a passion for food, quality ingredients, or cooking - let the interviewer know!
"I enjoy cooking, and my favorite meal to cook at home would be Chicken Marsala. I like to add in some pancetta, for an Italian flair."

I cook almost exclusively at home, especially since the pandemic. One of my favorites is lamb chops. I do a cast iron sear with caramelized onions and fresh veggies. Sauteed Brussel Sprouts are my favorite.

Wow! Both of those dishes sound delicious. If you incorporate Aldi ingredients in either meal, be sure to share that with the interviewer.
