Monday
Meal: Skillet Ground Chuck Tacos with Tomatoes and Corn

Sale items used: Ground Chuck ($5.99/lb), Tomatoes on the Vine ($1.69/lb), Old El Paso Seasoning Mix ($0.79), Old El Paso Taco Shells 2/$3.00, Food Club Corn or Green Beans ($0.79), La Mexicana Salsa ($2.49)

Tuesday
Meal: Oven-Braised Bottom Round Roast with Russet Potatoes and Vidalia Onions
Description: (Meat) A small portion of bottom round roast is seasoned with McCormick Grill Mates, nestled on a bed of chunked russet potatoes and sliced Vidalia onions, then slow-braised in the oven with a splash of water or broth until fork-tender. The low-and-slow method turns this budget cut into a deeply savory, one-pan meal.
Sale items used: Bottom Round Roast ($6.99/lb), Basket & Bushel Russet Potatoes ($3.99 for 10 lb bag), Vidalia Onions ($0.99/lb), McCormick Grill Mates 2/$3.00
Prep time: 20 minutes active; 2.5 hours total (braise in oven). Start by 4:30 PM for a 7 PM dinner, or braise the night before and reheat.
Serving note: Buy approximately 0.75 lb of bottom round roast; use 2 medium russet potatoes (about 0.5 lb from the bag); use 0.5 lb Vidalia onion (roughly 1 medium onion). The 10 lb potato bag carries through Thursday and beyond.
Wednesday
Meal: Pan-Seared Chicken Breast Tenders with Sweet Potatoes and Baby Cut Carrots
Description: (Meat) Fresh chicken breast tenders are seasoned and seared in a hot skillet with olive oil until golden and cooked through, served alongside roasted sweet potato chunks and tender baby cut carrots. The natural sweetness of the vegetables balances the savory chicken for a clean, wholesome plate.
Sale items used: Chicken Breast Tenders ($2.99/lb), Sweet Potatoes ($0.79/lb), Baby Cut Carrots ($1.69 per 1 lb bag)
Prep time: 35 minutes
Serving note: Use 0.5 lb chicken tenders; about 0.5 lb sweet potato (1 medium); use roughly one-third of the 1 lb carrot bag (save the rest for snacking or future meals). No dairy used; season with olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and paprika from the pantry.
Thursday
Meal: Ground Chuck Stuffed Bell Pepper Bowls with Tomatoes and Russet Potato Wedges
Description: (Meat) A single large bell pepper is halved and filled with seasoned ground chuck, diced vine tomatoes, and leftover corn, then baked until the pepper softens and the filling is bubbling. Crispy oven-roasted russet potato wedges seasoned with Grill Mates round out the plate.
Sale items used: Ground Chuck ($5.99/lb), Tomatoes on the Vine ($1.69/lb), Basket & Bushel Russet Potatoes (already purchased Tuesday), Old El Paso Corn (leftover from Monday), McCormick Grill Mates (already purchased Tuesday)
Prep time: 15 minutes active; 45 minutes total (bake). Prep the potato wedges and pepper simultaneously so everything finishes at the same time.
Serving note: Use 0.5 lb ground chuck; 1 large bell pepper (buy fresh, not on sale, budget about $0.75 to $1.00); 1 medium tomato (about 0.25 lb); 2 medium russet potatoes from the bag already purchased. Total oven time is about 40 minutes at 375 degrees F.

Friday
Meal: Grilled New York Strip Steak with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Vidalia Onions
Description: (Meat) A single New York Strip steak from the Family Pack is seasoned simply with McCormick Grill Mates and grilled or pan-seared to your preferred doneness, served alongside caramelized roasted sweet potatoes and golden Vidalia onion wedges. This is a celebratory end-of-week meal that feels indulgent while staying budget-smart by using the Family Pack price.
Sale items used: New York Strip Steak Family Pack ($14.99/lb), Sweet Potatoes ($0.79/lb), Vidalia Onions ($0.99/lb), McCormick Grill Mates (already purchased Tuesday)
Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Buy the Family Pack and portion out one steak of approximately 0.75 lb; freeze the remaining steaks individually for future meals. Use 0.5 lb sweet potato and 0.5 lb Vidalia onion. No dairy used; finish with a drizzle of olive oil from the pantry.
