5-DAY MEAL PLAN

Monday
Meal: Braised Chicken Leg Quarters with Eggplant and Sweet Corn (Meat)
Description: Two chicken leg quarters are braised low and slow in seasoned chicken broth with cubed eggplant until the meat is fall-off-the-bone tender and the eggplant is silky and rich. Fresh sweet corn on the cob rounds out the plate for a satisfying, hearty weeknight dinner.
Sale items used: Fresh Chicken Leg Quarters ($1.29/lb), Eggplant ($1.49/lb), Sweet Corn ($0.25/ear, 10 for $2.50)
Prep time: 20 minutes active, 60 minutes total
Serving note: Buy approximately 2 lbs of chicken leg quarters (2 quarters, one per person) at $1.29/lb. Buy approximately 1 lb of eggplant (1 medium eggplant) at $1.49/lb. Buy 2 ears of sweet corn. Since braising takes about 45 minutes, start the chicken first, then add eggplant halfway through.

Tuesday
Meal: Pan-Seared Coho Salmon with Asparagus and Giant Salad Blend (Dairy-Free Fish)
Description: Two portions of sashimi-grade Coho salmon are pan-seared in olive oil until golden and crisp on the outside and just cooked through, served alongside roasted asparagus spears. A fresh salad blend tossed with lemon and olive oil completes this light, elegant meal.
Sale items used: Coho Salmon ($8.99/lb), Asparagus ($3.49/lb), Giant Salad Blends 5 oz. (2 for $5.00)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Buy approximately 1 lb of Coho salmon (two 8 oz. portions) at $8.99/lb. Buy approximately 0.75 lb of asparagus at $3.49/lb. Buy 1 bag of Giant Salad Blend at $2.50 (one bag from the 2 for $5.00 deal, or buy 2 and use the second later in the week).

Wednesday
Meal: Ground Beef and Portabella Mushroom Skillet with Ben's Original Ready Rice (Meat)
Description: Lean ground beef is browned with sliced portabella mushrooms, garlic, and onion in a savory skillet seasoned with kosher salt, pepper, and a splash of beef broth for a rich, meaty sauce. Served over fluffy Ben's Original Ready Rice, this one-pan meal comes together in under 30 minutes.
Sale items used: 73% Lean Ground Beef ($3.49/lb, 3-day sale), Giant Portabella Mushrooms 14 oz. ($5.49), Ben's Original Ready Rice (2 for $5.00)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Buy approximately 0.75 lb of ground beef at $3.49/lb (enough for two generous servings). Buy 1 package of Giant Portabella Mushrooms (14 oz.) at $5.49. Buy 1 package of Ben's Original Ready Rice at $2.50 (one unit from the 2 for $5.00 deal). Purchase ground beef early in the week to take advantage of the 3-day sale price.

Thursday
Meal: Hebrew National Beef Franks with Sweet Corn and Mini Cucumber Salad (Meat)
Description: Hebrew National beef franks are grilled or pan-seared until lightly charred and served on Ball Park rolls alongside sweet corn on the cob. A crisp mini cucumber salad with grape tomatoes, red onion, and a simple vinaigrette adds a refreshing contrast to the smoky franks.
Sale items used: Hebrew National Beef Franks 9.43-12 oz. ($4.99), Sweet Corn ($0.25/ear, 10 for $2.50), Mini Cucumbers 14 oz. (2 for $5.00), Grape Tomatoes 10 oz. (2 for $5.00), Ball Park Rolls ($2.99)

Check the label: supermarket buns and rolls often contain milk or whey, which cannot be served with meat, and few are certified kosher.

Friday
Meal: Baked 8-Piece Dark Meat Chicken with Green Beans and Avocado Salad (Meat)
Description: The ready-to-bake 8-piece dark meat chicken is seasoned with garlic, paprika, and olive oil then roasted until the skin is golden and crispy, providing generous portions for two with planned leftovers. Tender green beans and a simple avocado salad with grape tomatoes and lemon dressing round out this satisfying Shabbat-ready dinner.
Sale items used: 8-Piece Dark Meat Chicken Fried or Baked ($6.99 each), Giant Green Beans or Brussels Sprouts 12 oz. ($2.49), Avocados (5 for $5.00), Grape Tomatoes 10 oz. (2 for $5.00)
