Monday
Meal: Braised Bone-In Pork Shoulder with Basmati Rice and Red Bell Peppers
Description: A tender, slow-braised pork shoulder is seasoned and cooked low and slow until fall-off-the-bone, served over fluffy white basmati rice for two. Sliced red bell peppers are added to the braise for sweetness and color, making a hearty and naturally gluten-free weeknight dinner.

Prep time: 20 minutes active, 2.5 to 3 hours total
Serving note: Purchase approximately 1.5 lbs of pork shoulder for 2 people (estimated cost $2.99 at $1.99/lb); cook the full 2 lb bag of basmati rice and save leftovers for Friday; use both red bell peppers in the braise. Make-ahead tip: braise the pork the night before and reheat gently on the stovetop for a quick weeknight meal.
Tuesday
Meal: Pan-Seared Andouille Chicken Sausage with Konjac Noodles and Sweetpops Tomatoes

Wednesday
Meal: Baked Chicken Wings with Ore-Ida Fried Potatoes and Arugula Salad

Friday
Meal: Sauteed Shrimp with Sweet Chili Sauce, Bamboo Shoots, and Basmati Rice
