Giant Gluten-Free Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
Why these meals: You get a different protein every night: pork chops on Monday, ground beef on Tuesday, chicken wings on Wednesday, shrimp on Thursday and a ham steak hash on Friday, so nobody eats the same dinner twice. Giant Russet Potatoes show up on Monday and Friday, and the Giant 90-Second Rice covers Tuesday and Thursday, so a few simple sides do double duty. Everything is seasoned with just salt, pepper and pantry spices, with no flour dredge and no bottled sauce, which keeps the week gluten-free, though it is worth checking the ham steak label before Friday. The shrimp at $10.49 is the one splurge night, while ground beef at $3.99 and pork chops at $4.49 keep other dinners easy on the cart.
