Lidl Low-Carb Meal Plan

5-DAY MEAL PLAN

Monday
Meal: Baked Chicken Wings with Cauliflower Rice and Avocado
Description: Crispy oven-baked chicken wings are seasoned with garlic, smoked paprika, and olive oil, then served alongside fluffy cauliflower rice for a satisfying low-carb dinner for two. Creamy sliced avocado rounds out the plate with healthy fats and keeps net carbs well under 20g per serving.
Sale items used: Butcher's Specialty fresh whole chicken wings (family pack, $1.99/lb), Cauliflower ($2.49 each), Avocados ($3.49/pk of 4)
Prep time: 55 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 2 lbs of chicken wings (roughly 8-10 wings total, about 1 lb per person). Use 1 full head of cauliflower, riced in a food processor or box grater, split evenly between 2 plates. Use 2 avocados from the 4-pack (save the remaining 2 for Thursday). Bake wings at 425F for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway; prep the cauliflower rice while wings bake to keep total time around 55 minutes.

Tuesday
Meal: Pan-Seared Boneless Pork Loin Chops with Pesto and Blackberries
Description: Two boneless pork loin center cut chops are seared in a hot skillet until golden and juicy, then finished with a spoonful of bright pesto Genovese and a handful of fresh blackberries for a sweet-savory low-carb plate. The blackberries add just a touch of natural sweetness and color while keeping net carbs minimal.

Serving note: Purchase approximately 1 lb of pork loin chops, which typically yields two generous chops (about 0.5 lb each). Use 2-3 tablespoons of pesto divided between the two plates. Use the full 6 oz pack of blackberries, split between both servings. The pesto jar will have plenty left over for other uses.

Wednesday
Meal: Ground Turkey and Cauliflower Skillet with Cheddar
Description: Lean ground turkey is browned in a skillet with garlic, onion powder, and cumin, then tossed with riced cauliflower and melted sharp white cheddar for a hearty one-pan low-carb dinner for two. This quick skillet meal is filling, cheesy, and comes together in under 30 minutes.
Sale items used: Butterball fresh all natural ground turkey 93% lean ($2.99 each/16 oz), Milbona sharp white cheddar cheese ($1.87 each/8 oz)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use the full 16 oz (1 lb) package of ground turkey, split evenly between 2 servings.

Save the remaining 4 oz of cheddar for snacking or another use.

Thursday
Meal: Chicken Tenderloin Lettuce Wraps with Cottage Cheese Dip
Description: Seasoned chicken tenderloins are pan-cooked and tucked into crisp romaine or butter lettuce leaves, then served with a creamy cottage cheese dip on the side for a light but protein-packed low-carb meal for two. The cottage cheese dip doubles as a satisfying sauce and keeps the meal fresh and filling without any bread or wraps.

Serving note: Purchase approximately 1 lb of chicken tenderloins, yielding about 4-5 tenderloins per person. Use 1 cup of cottage cheese per person as a dip, seasoned with garlic powder, lemon juice, and fresh herbs if available. Slice the 2 remaining avocados from Monday's pack and tuck into the wraps. Pick up a head of romaine or butter lettuce from the pantry or produce section (not on sale this week, so listed under pantry staples).

Friday
Meal: Sauteed Jumbo Shrimp with Garlic, Butter, and Crushed Tomatoes
Description: Plump fresh jumbo shrimp are sauteed in butter and minced garlic, then simmered briefly in hand-crushed tomatoes with basil and sea salt for a rich, low-carb skillet dinner that comes together in minutes. Served on its own or over a bed of zucchini noodles or sauteed spinach from the pantry, this dish is bold, satisfying, and well under 20g net carbs per serving.
