5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Sheet-Pan Roasted Chicken Drumsticks with Sweet Potatoes and Baby Carrots
Description: Two crispy-skinned drumsticks roast on one pan alongside cubed sweet potato and a handful of baby carrots. Simple seasonings keep it naturally gluten-free and the cleanup is a single pan.
Sale items used: Butcher's Specialty chicken drumsticks, sweet potatoes, Peak Harvest baby carrots
Prep time: 45 minutes
Serving note: Use 2 drumsticks (about 0.5 lb) from a 1 lb purchase, 1 medium sweet potato (about 8 oz) cubed, and about 1 cup (4 oz) baby carrots. Roast at 425F for 35-40 minutes, tossing once. Freeze or save the remaining drumsticks, and keep the extra carrots for Friday's soup.

Tuesday
Meal: Roasted Pork Loin with Granny Smith Apples, Yellow Onions, and Mashed Russet Potatoes
Description: A small roasted pork loin portion cooks over sliced apple and onion until tender and lightly caramelized. It is served with creamy mashed russet potato made with butter and milk, with no gravy packets or other gluten risks.
Sale items used: Smithfield pork loin, Granny Smith apples, yellow onions, jumbo russet potatoes
Prep time: 60 minutes
Serving note: Assumes a 0.75 lb piece of pork loin (ask the meat counter to cut one, or trim a section from the roast and freeze the rest). Use 1 apple, half an onion, and 1 large russet (about 10 oz) for the mash. Roast the pork at 400F for 30-35 minutes to an internal temperature of 145F, then rest 5 minutes. Boil the potato while the pork roasts. Leftover pork slices make a good cold lunch.

Wednesday
Meal: Smoked Cheese, Corn, and Celery Frittata with Sliced Avocado
Description: Three eggs are whisked with diced smoked cheese, sweet corn, and finely chopped celery, then cooked in a small skillet until set. Half a sliced avocado on the side adds creaminess.
Sale items used: Hillandale jumbo white eggs, smoked cheese assortment, whole kernel sweet corn, Peak Harvest celery, avocados
Prep time: 20 minutes
Serving note: Use 3 eggs, 1 oz smoked cheese, 1/4 cup corn, 1 celery stalk, and half an avocado. Cook covered over medium-low for about 8 minutes, or finish under the broiler. Check the smoked cheese label for gluten-free status. Keep the leftover corn and celery for Friday, and use the other avocado halves as snacks or on Thursday's potato.

Meal: Ground Beef and Onion Stuffed Baked Russet Potatoes with Bavarian Cheese and Green Beans

Sale items used: Butcher's Specialty ground beef, jumbo russet potatoes, yellow onions, Lidl Preferred Selection Bavarian cheese slices, cut green beans
Prep time: 70 minutes
Serving note: Use 4 oz ground beef from the 32 oz pack (divide the rest into 4 oz portions and freeze right away), 1 large russet (about 10 oz), a quarter of an onion, 2 slices Bavarian cheese, and half the can of green beans (about 3/4 cup). Bake the potato at 425F for 50-60 minutes, or microwave 6-8 minutes first and then crisp it in the oven for 15 minutes to save time. Brown the beef and onion while it bakes. Keep the other half of the green beans for Friday.

Friday
Meal: Whole Chicken Vegetable Soup with Celery, Carrots, and Green Beans
Description: A small whole chicken simmers into a rich, clear broth with celery, carrots, and onion, and the shredded meat goes back into the pot with green beans. It is naturally gluten-free with no noodles or thickeners, and makes plenty of leftover portions.
Sale items used: Farmer Focus whole young chicken, Peak Harvest celery, Peak Harvest baby carrots, cut green beans, yellow onions
Prep time: 100 minutes
Serving note: Assumes a 4 lb whole chicken. Simmer it with half an onion, 2 celery stalks, and water for about 75 minutes, then shred the meat. For tonight's bowl, use 1 cup broth, 1 cup shredded chicken (about 5 oz), 1/2 cup sliced carrots, the leftover celery, and the remaining green beans. Because this takes over an hour, simmer the chicken earlier in the day or the day before. Freeze the remaining broth and meat in single portions.
