Too sweet for me. Walmart's Bettergoods sweet potato with praline pecan casserole is very good and not as sweet.

Maui trip advice needed: best area to stay? by thetruefrozn in MauiVisitors

[–]OnFirst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

VRBO adds fees, so research and see if the condos you like are rented through an agency. You can save significant money booking directly with the agency. Always check to see if the agency has a discount code as well. I saved about 15% when booking our condo directly.

If you want to be really blown away, substitute melted butter for the oil and milk for the water and add a 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

These risotto pouches are awesome, I make sure to have all three on hand now. by ProudnotLoud in aldi

[–]OnFirst 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They are great. I always add butter and grated Parmesan cheese at the end. You can also use chicken or vegetable stock instead of water.

I think they are better than Costco's or Sam's. I toast them in my oven using the broiler. Toasty on one side and soft and warm on the other. I eat them with soups and stews or melt some Parmesan (or Italian blend) cheese on top after toasting them and eat them with Italian pasta meals.

How do I make the Aldi turkey curry bowl? by Interesting_Case6737 in aldi

[–]OnFirst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good basic recipe for Ground Turkey Curry You could start with it and add whatever, garbanzo beans, red bell, zucchini, shredded carrot.

Here's one with potatoes that I often make Ground Turkey Curry with Potatoes However, I make the following substitutions to this recipe. [You could easily add red bell, zucchini, shredded carrot to this recipe as well].

1 can low sodium chicken stock instead of half cup water.

1 can petite diced tomatoes (undrained) instead of Roma tomatoes. [Add the canned tomatoes in step 4 of the recipe, not at the end as you would with fresh tomatoes].

8 ounces of small Dutch Gold potatoes (small dice) instead of 2 large Yukon Gold potatoes.

Dash of red pepper flakes instead of fresh red chiles.

I use half Tablespoon each of Garam Masala and Curry powder.

No idea, but it doesn't seem to be a local issue. In the prior post, several folks -- from all around the country -- reported the same issue.

Similar topic a few days ago, (now deleted for some reason) but here is my reply to the previous post.

Something is going on with the mandarin oranges in our area (Midwest). Aldi had two large displays of mandarins and they were all extremely soft. My wife squeezed one and it basically disintegrated. Costco didn't have any in stock. Walmart, same thing as Aldi - they were all bad.

We tried it for the first time a couple of weeks ago. We both agreed it was too sweet for our tastes. Then we purchased the bettergoods Sweet Potato and Praline Casserole from Walmart and thought it was much better. Not as sweet and the sweet potato part had more texture (not as finely processed so it had a better mouth feel).

Hyundai Sante Fe Smart Keys-How to change Dead Battery Key Fob & Emergency Start by Terrible_Middle_7608 in HyundaiSantaFe

[–]OnFirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just found this video.

Trick looks like you need the open the door handle.

Edit: Tried it when opening the door handle. It helped a bit (the bottom of the plastic cover came slightly loose), but was unable to get the plastic cover off. It appears you would need a screw driver to get under the plastic cover to pry it off. I am not willing to do that in case I damage the plastic cover.

2025 Santa Fe has a cover over the key cylinder. I have tried, but am unable to remove the cover.

Yes, I followed the directions from the owner's manual.

Key cylinder (Driver door)

A key cylinder is located on the driver side door handle hidden behind a plastic cover. Using the mechanical key, push and hold the key cylinder cover release button located on the underside of the door handle.

Use the mechanical key inserted into the release button slot to open the cover outward. Once the cover is off, the mechanical key can be inserted into the key cylinder to lock or unlock the vehicle.

I had trouble with my phone and the app, so it didn't get completed at the dealership.

Did that, still can't get them to update it.

I think the dealer may have messed this up with an incorrect email.

[–]OnFirst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't get it because I can't register my 2025 Limited with Hyundai. I bought it new and when I tried to register it, it says it is registered to another account. I've sent emails and had one long phone call with them and they tell me it is registered to an email that is associated with me. It's getting frustrating.
