SOMETIMES, nothing hits the spot quite like an easy fast food dinner - and now Aldi have launched KFC-inspired boxes for you to make at home.

According to the popular discount supermarket, their brand new Munch! Chicken Strips & Chips kits are a whopping 62 per cent cheaper than the high street favourite.

Hitting the shelves earlier last month, foodies can now enjoy Munch! Southern Style Chicken & Chips and Munch! Salt & Chilli Pepper Chicken and Chips boxes priced at £3.99.

The finger lickingly good Munch! Southern Style Chicken and Chips Box is a staggering £6.50 cheaper than KFC’s Boneless Banquet.

The kit comes with succulent chicken tenders, chicken poppers, crispy fries and of course, the fan favourite southern fried style gravy.

Ideal for fuss-free dinners that take just minutes to whip up is also Aldi's brand new Munch! Salt & Chilli Pepper Chicken & Chips, which includes golden fries, light and crispy coated chicken pieces, diced peppers and onions.

The £3.99 kit also includes the star of the show - the salt & chilli pepper seasoning.

If you're a foodie like us, the team at Fabulous, you will also be delighted to hear that Aldi are now offering another cult favourite dish to go alongside the other kits -  Inspired Cuisine Mac and Cheese.

The range, the store shared on their website, includes three decadent flavours of the beloved dish: Classic, Truffle and BBQ Pulled Pork.

Shoppers can pick up the cheesy goodness for just £1.79 (300g).  

Since hitting the store shelves a few weeks ago, the new collection has already become a massive hit on social media, where food lovers are raving about the bargain buys.

One such customer, Bergen Ayla Kolukisa, took to Facebook to share her positive thoughts on the Munch! Southern Style Chicken & Chips.

Taking to the popular Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, she said: ''Not sure if been posted before but Aldi have some right bargains at the moment!

''The gravy is so close to KFCs as well! None of it tastes fake or cheap either!

''Tastes nearly the same!''

Bergen, who enjoyed the dish with some onion rings, also shared a snap of the £3.99 dinner she'd made - and people couldn't believe how good it looked.

More than a hundred people gave the post a like, as dozens flocked to comments to tag their friends and family.

One mum said: ''My boy loves these, easy to get out of buying KFC too.''

Someone else told their pals: ''Need to go Aldi.''

A foodie also had nothing but good things to say, as they wrote: ''These are lovely, especially the salt and pepper ones.''
