5-DAY MEAL PLAN

Monday
Meal: (Meat) Braised Chicken Thighs with Sweet Potatoes and Carrots
Description: Two bone-in chicken thighs are seasoned and slowly braised in chicken broth with cubed sweet potato and baby-cut carrots until tender and deeply flavorful. This hearty one-pan meal is scaled perfectly for one and requires no dairy of any kind.
Sale items used: Fresh Chicken Drumsticks or Thighs ($3.99/lb), Sweet Potatoes ($0.79/lb), Giant Peeled Baby-Cut Carrots ($0.99 each)
Prep time: 20 minutes active, 45 minutes braising
Serving note: Use approximately 0.5 lb of chicken thighs (about 2 small thighs); assume 0.5 lb sweet potato and half a bag of carrots. Make-ahead tip - braise on Sunday evening and reheat Monday for a faster weeknight meal.

Tuesday
Meal: (Meat) Sauteed Fresh Dinner Sausage with DeCecco Pasta and Tomatoes
Description: One or two links of fresh dinner sausage are sliced and sauteed in olive oil, then tossed with cooked DeCecco pasta and diced NatureSweet tomatoes for a quick and satisfying meat meal. No dairy is used at any stage - olive oil replaces any butter or cream.
Sale items used: Fresh Dinner Sausage ($2.99/lb), DeCecco Pasta ($0.99), NatureSweet or Glorys Tomatoes ($2.49)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use approximately 0.5 lb of fresh dinner sausage (1 to 2 links depending on size); cook 2 oz dry pasta for one serving; use half the tomato container and refrigerate the rest for snacking.

- Easy One Pot Pasta with Sausage and Fresh Tomatoes

Wednesday
Meal: (Meat) Pan-Seared Tilapia Fillets with Steamed Vegetables and Rice
Description: A single fresh tilapia fillet is seasoned with Kikkoman sauce and pan-seared in olive oil until golden, then served alongside steamed Birds Eye Steamfresh vegetables and a pouch of Giant 90 Second Rice. This is a light, protein-forward meat meal with no dairy ingredients.
Sale items used: Tilapia Fillets Farm Raised Fresh ($7.99/lb), Birds Eye Steamfresh Vegetables ($1.99), Giant 90 Second Rice ($0.99), Kikkoman Sauce ($1.99)
Prep time: 20 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of tilapia (1 medium fillet); one rice pouch and one steamfresh bag are single-use and sized well for one person. Kikkoman sauce counts as a flavor item essential to this meal.

Thursday
Meal: (Meat) Hebrew National Beef Franks with Jiffy Corn Muffin Baked Topping and Carrots
Description: Hebrew National beef franks are sliced and nestled in a small baking dish, then topped with a simple Jiffy corn muffin batter mixed with water (no milk, no dairy) and baked until golden for a fun corn dog casserole effect. Steamed baby-cut carrots round out the plate as a simple side.
Sale items used: Hebrew National Beef Franks ($4.99), Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix ($0.69), Giant Peeled Baby-Cut Carrots ($0.99 each)
Prep time: 10 minutes active, 20 minutes baking
Serving note: Use 2 to 3 franks from the pack and refrigerate the rest for later in the week; mix half a box of Jiffy with water only (no milk or egg to keep it pareve-friendly alongside meat); use the remaining half bag of carrots from Monday.

Friday
Meal: (Meat) Butterball Breakfast Turkey Sausage Patties with Sweet Potato Hash
Description: Butterball breakfast turkey sausage patties are pan-cooked in olive oil and served alongside a simple sweet potato hash made with diced sweet potato and baby-cut carrots, seasoned with McCormick Grill Mates spices. No dairy is used - olive oil handles all the cooking fat.
Sale items used: Butterball Breakfast Turkey Sausage ($3.99), Sweet Potatoes ($0.79/lb), Giant Peeled Baby-Cut Carrots ($0.99 each), McCormick Grill Mates Bottle Blends ($2.56)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use 2 to 3 patties from the package and freeze the rest for future breakfasts; use approximately 0.5 lb sweet potato diced small; use the last portion of the carrot bag from earlier in the week. McCormick Grill Mates counts as a flavor item essential to this meal.
