5-DAY MEAL PLAN

Monday
Meal: Pan-Seared Catfish Fillets with Romaine Salad
Description: A single catfish fillet is seasoned with garlic, lemon, and herbs, then pan-seared in olive oil until golden and flaky. It is served alongside a crisp romaine salad dressed with a light vinaigrette for a fresh, satisfying dairy-free dinner.
Sale items used: Catfish Fillets ($0.89/lb), Nature's Promise Organic Romaine Hearts ($2.50), Pompeian Extra Virgin Olive Oil ($4.99)
Prep time: 20 minutes
Serving note: Use approximately 0.5 lb of catfish fillet for one serving, costing about $0.45. Use roughly 2 to 3 romaine leaves from one heart (the rest keeps in the fridge for Tuesday and Thursday). The olive oil bottle will carry through the week.

Tuesday
Meal: Boar's Head Ovengold Turkey Breast Lettuce Wraps with Romaine
Description: Sliced Boar's Head Ovengold Turkey Breast is layered into crisp romaine leaves with NatureSweet Cherubs tomatoes and shredded carrots for a light, no-cook lunch or dinner. The wraps are finished with a drizzle of Kraft salad dressing for extra flavor.
Sale items used: Boar's Head Ovengold Turkey Breast ($4.49/ea), Nature's Promise Organic Romaine Hearts (already purchased Monday), NatureSweet Cherubs Tomatoes ($2.59), Giant Peeled Baby-Cut Carrots ($1.50), Kraft Salad Dressing ($2.50)
Prep time: 10 minutes
Serving note: Use 3 to 4 slices of turkey breast from the package (the rest stores well for Thursday). Use 3 romaine leaves from the same heart purchased Monday. Use a small handful of carrots and 4 to 5 cherry tomatoes. Check the Kraft dressing label to confirm it is dairy-free before purchasing.

Wednesday
Meal: Catfish Fillet Soup with Garlic and Herbs
Description: A second catfish fillet is simmered in a light broth with garlic, herbs, baby carrots, and green beans to create a warming, nourishing single-serve soup. This simple one-pot meal comes together quickly and is completely dairy-free.
Sale items used: Catfish Fillets (second 0.5 lb portion from Monday's purchase), Giant Green Beans or Brussels Sprouts ($1.99), Giant Peeled Baby-Cut Carrots (already purchased Tuesday)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use the remaining 0.5 lb of catfish from the Monday purchase. Use a small handful of green beans (about 1/4 of the bag) and a few baby carrots from Tuesday's bag. Broth, garlic, and dried herbs come from the pantry.

Thursday
Meal: Boar's Head Ovengold Turkey Breast and Grape Salad Bowl
Description: Leftover Boar's Head Ovengold Turkey Breast is sliced and arranged over a bed of romaine with fresh black seedless grapes and shredded carrots for a sweet and savory salad bowl. A light drizzle of the remaining Kraft salad dressing ties everything together.
Sale items used: Boar's Head Ovengold Turkey Breast (remaining slices from Tuesday), Nature's Promise Organic Romaine Hearts (remaining from Monday's purchase), Black Seedless Grapes ($1.99/lb), Giant Peeled Baby-Cut Carrots (remaining from Tuesday), Kraft Salad Dressing (remaining from Tuesday)
Prep time: 10 minutes
Serving note: Use the remaining turkey slices from Tuesday's package. Use 2 to 3 romaine leaves from the same heart. Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of black seedless grapes, costing about $1.00, and use a small cluster for this salad.

Friday
Meal: Pan-Seared Salmon Fillets with Garlic and Lemon
Description: A single salmon fillet is pan-seared in olive oil with minced garlic and a squeeze of fresh lemon until the outside is caramelized and the inside is tender. It is served alongside sweet corn on the cob for a simple, elegant, and fully dairy-free meal.
Sale items used: Salmon Fillets or Snow Crab Clusters ($4.49/ea), Sweet Corn White or Yellow ($2.50)
Prep time: 20 minutes
