Free Holiday Recipe Cards From Grocery Store Apps
Save free holiday recipes in store apps and send only the ingredients you need to pickup or delivery.
Yes, grocery apps from Walmart, ALDI, Publix and Safeway offer free holiday recipes you can browse, save and use for shopping. Shoppable recipe cards here mean digital recipe pages that list ingredients and let you add what you need to an online cart. You do not pay for the recipes themselves.
You still pay for ingredients, and you may need a store account and meet online minimums or fees for pickup or delivery.

What the free collections include
According to Walmart Corporate in October 2026, its Recipe Hub covers classic sides, dietary preferences and leftover ideas alongside a Holiday Meal Basket serving 10 for $35 through one-click online purchase Walmart's holiday meal announcement. The recipes are free to browse. The basket is a separate paid grocery purchase.
According to Publix Super Markets, its Aprons Guilt-Free Holidays page, updated December 1, 2022, shares free holiday recipes and guidance with calorie counts and links to dishes such as roasted pepper-zucchini bruschetta Publix's Guilt-Free Holidays page. The focus is lighter holiday choices. Shoppers can use the ideas to plan without paying for the recipes.
Where to find and save them
According to ALDI US, its app and site organize recipes by course, mealtime, holiday and diet, let shoppers save recipes to My Saved Recipes, and link ingredients directly to delivery or pickup ALDI's recipe organization guide. That structure helps narrow holiday meals by diet or meal type. Saved recipes stay linked to shopping.
According to Safeway, its free Christmas and holiday-dinner recipes page lets app and site users browse holiday recipes and add ingredients straight to their online grocery cart Safeway's holiday-dinner recipes page. Browsing is free. Checkout covers the selected groceries.
How to turn a recipe into a grocery list
Start from the recipe collection inside the grocer's app or site. Save the dishes you plan to make so you can compare ingredients. This keeps the list short.
It also avoids buying duplicates you already have.
- Open the holiday recipe section and pick one dish.
- Save it where the app allows, such as a saved-recipes list.
- Add only the ingredients you lack to pickup or delivery.
- Check the app for current savings before checkout.
What still costs money
The cards and recipes are free, but the food is not. According to that same Walmart announcement, shoppers should expect ingredient costs, online minimums of the $35 type, delivery fees and a need for an app or store account. Check the grocer's app for terms before you shop.
Add only needed ingredients to your cart.
