5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Bean and Cheese Loaded Baked Russet Potatoes with Cucumber Sour Cream Salad
Description: Two big russets are baked until crisp-skinned, split open, and piled with warm seasoned beans and melty shredded cheese. A cool cucumber and sour cream salad on the side balances the richness.
Sale items used: Giant Russet Potatoes, Sargento Shredded Cheese, Hothouse Cucumbers, FAGE Sour Cream
Prep time: 70 minutes (15 minutes active)
Serving note: Bake 2 large russets (about 1.25 lb total) at 425 F for 55 to 60 minutes. To save time, microwave them 8 minutes first, then crisp in the oven for 20 minutes. Warm 1 can (15 oz) drained beans with garlic, cumin, and salt, and top the potatoes with 1 cup shredded cheese. For the salad, slice 1 cucumber and toss with 1/3 cup sour cream, 1 tbsp vinegar, dill, salt, and pepper. The rest of the potato bag keeps for roasting later in the week.
Tuesday
Meal: Squash and Pepper Cheese Frittata with Brown & Serve Rolls
Description: Sauteed yellow squash and sweet pepper are folded into six eggs with melted cheese, then finished in the oven until puffed and golden. Warm brown and serve rolls with butter round out a simple, filling dinner for two.
Sale items used: Green or Yellow Squash, Hothouse Peppers, Sargento Shredded Cheese, Giant Butter
Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Use 6 eggs, about 10 oz (roughly 0.6 lb) sliced squash, 1 pepper (about 0.5 lb, diced), 3/4 cup shredded cheese, and 1 tbsp butter in an oven-safe skillet. Bake at 400 F for 12 to 15 minutes. Bake 4 brown and serve rolls from one pack per the package directions, about 10 minutes, with 1 tbsp butter for serving. Save the remaining squash (about 6 oz) for Thursday.
Wednesday
Meal: Garlic-Butter Cabbage and Pasta Skillet with Toasted Peanuts and Apple Slices
Description: Cabbage wilts and caramelizes in garlic butter, then gets tossed with tender pasta and a little cheese for a cozy one-pan dinner. Toasted peanuts add crunch on top, and crisp apple slices on the side add a sweet finish.
Sale items used: Cabbage, Giant Butter, Red or Sweet Onions, Tote Bag Apples, Sargento Shredded Cheese
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use 1.5 lb cabbage (about half a medium head), thinly sliced, with 8 oz dry pasta, 3 tbsp butter, 3 cloves garlic, and 1/2 medium onion. Stir in 1/4 cup shredded cheese at the end. Toast 1/4 cup peanuts in a dry pan for 3 minutes. Slice 2 medium apples (about 1 lb total) for the side.
Thursday
Meal: Stovetop Bean and Pepper Chili over 90-Second Rice with Avocado
Description: A thick, smoky chili of two kinds of beans, sweet peppers, and a bit of squash simmers in one pot and is spooned over fluffy rice. Half an avocado and a dollop of sour cream per bowl keep it cool and creamy.
Sale items used: Hothouse Peppers, Red or Sweet Onions, Green or Yellow Squash, Giant 90-Second Rice, Hass Avocados, FAGE Sour Cream
Prep time: 35 minutes
Serving note: Saute 1 medium onion and 2 peppers (about 1 lb total, diced) with the leftover 6 oz diced squash. Add 2 cans (15 oz each) drained beans, 1 can diced tomatoes, 1 can tomato sauce, 2 tbsp chili powder, and 1 tsp cumin. Simmer 20 minutes. Heat 1 pouch of rice for dinner and keep the second for leftover chili lunch. Top each bowl with 1/2 avocado (2 total) and 1 tbsp sour cream.
Friday
Meal: Skillet Grilled Cheese with Creamy Tomato Soup and Baby Carrots
Description: Buttery panini bread is griddled in a skillet until golden and stuffed with plenty of melted cheese. A silky tomato soup finished with sour cream is perfect for dunking, with crunchy baby carrots on the side.
Sale items used: Giant Sliced Panini Bread, Sargento Shredded Cheese, Giant Butter, Red or Sweet Onions, FAGE Sour Cream
Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Make 2 sandwiches from 4 slices of panini bread, 1.5 cups shredded cheese, and 2 tbsp butter. Cook over medium-low heat, 3 to 4 minutes per side. For the soup, saute 1/2 medium onion in 1 tbsp butter, then add 2 cans diced tomatoes, 1/2 cup broth or water, salt, and pepper. Simmer 10 minutes, blend smooth, and stir in 1/4 cup sour cream. Serve with about 1 cup baby carrots per person.
Check the label: broth is often made from chicken or beef. Vegetable broth is the safe choice.
