5-DAY MEAL PLAN

Monday
Meal: Skillet Ground Chuck Tacos with Tomatoes and Corn
Description: (Meat) Seasoned ground chuck is browned in a skillet with taco spices, then spooned into crispy taco shells and topped with fresh vine tomatoes and sweet corn for a quick, satisfying weeknight dinner for two. Each person gets three loaded tacos with a bright, fresh topping of diced tomato and corn straight from the can.
Sale items used: Ground Chuck ($5.99/lb), Tomatoes on the Vine ($1.69/lb), Old El Paso Taco Shells (2/$3.00), Old El Paso Seasoning Mix ($0.79), Old El Paso Tomatoes or Food Club Corn ($0.79)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use 1 lb of ground chuck total for 2 people; 1 lb of vine tomatoes assumed; buy 1 box of taco shells (2/$3.00 deal, buy 2 boxes to trigger the sale); 1 can corn and 1 seasoning packet cover both servings fully. Make-ahead note: brown the meat up to a day ahead and reheat in the skillet.

Tuesday
Meal: Oven-Braised Bottom Round Roast with Russet Potatoes and Vidalia Onions
Description: (Meat) A small bottom round roast is slow-braised in the oven with chicken broth, garlic, and herbs until fork-tender, surrounded by chunked russet potatoes and sweet Vidalia onions that soak up all the savory pan juices. This hearty, hands-off meal is perfect for two and produces enough for a satisfying dinner with a little left over for lunch.
Sale items used: Bottom Round Roast ($6.99/lb), Basket & Bushel Russet Potatoes ($3.99 for 10 lb bag), Vidalia Onions ($0.99/lb)
Prep time: 20 minutes active, approximately 2.5 hours total (including braising time)
Serving note: Use a 2 lb roast for 2 people (approximately $13.98 for the roast); use 3 to 4 medium russet potatoes from the 10 lb bag; use 1 lb of Vidalia onions. Make-ahead note: start the braise by early afternoon so it is ready by dinner; leftovers reheat beautifully the next day.

Wednesday
Meal: Pan-Seared Chicken Breast Tenders with Sweet Potatoes and Baby Cut Carrots
Description: (Meat) Fresh chicken breast tenders are seasoned with McCormick Grill Mates and seared golden in olive oil, then served alongside roasted sweet potato cubes and tender baby cut carrots for a colorful, nutritious plate scaled perfectly for two. The whole meal comes together in one oven and one skillet with minimal cleanup.
Sale items used: Chicken Breast Tenders ($2.99/lb), Sweet Potatoes ($0.79/lb), Baby Cut Carrots ($1.69 each), McCormick Grill Mates (2/$3.00 with digital coupon)

Thursday
Meal: Ground Chuck Stuffed Bell Pepper Bowls with Tomatoes and Russet Potato Wedges
Description: (Meat) Halved bell peppers are filled with a savory mixture of seasoned ground chuck, diced vine tomatoes, corn, and taco seasoning, then baked until the peppers are tender and the filling is bubbling hot, served alongside crispy oven-roasted russet potato wedges. This colorful, filling meal uses pantry staples and sale items already purchased earlier in the week.
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 Seasoning Mix ($0.79), Food Club Corn ($0.79)
Prep time: 15 minutes active, approximately 50 minutes total (including baking time)
Serving note: Use 1 lb of ground chuck for 2 stuffed pepper halves (one per person); use 2 medium russet potatoes from the bag already purchased; use 0.5 lb of vine tomatoes; 1 can of corn and 1 seasoning packet complete the filling.

Friday
Meal: Grilled New York Strip Steak with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Vidalia Onions
Description: (Meat) Two New York strip steaks from the Certified Angus Beef family pack are seasoned simply with McCormick Grill Mates and grilled to a perfect sear, plated alongside caramelized roasted sweet potato slices and sweet Vidalia onion wedges brushed with olive oil. This is a restaurant-quality Friday night dinner at a fraction of the cost, scaled for exactly two people.
