Giant Low-Carb Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
Why these meals: This week's plan leans on Giant's sale proteins to keep things low-carb and satisfying without any tortillas, rice, or pasta in sight. You'll get ground beef taco bowls on Monday, garlic butter shrimp with green beans on Tuesday, baked chicken breast with a fresh salad blend on Wednesday, roasted pork tenderloin on Thursday, and a ground chicken and bell pepper skillet to wrap up the week on Friday. Green beans and Giant Rainbow Bell Peppers each show up twice, so you get good mileage out of those packages while still enjoying different flavors night to night. Shrimp, avocados, and shredded cheese round things out with fresh, simple ingredients that come together fast after a long day, and everything is easy to find in one trip through Giant's sale aisle.
