5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Pan-Seared Bone-In Chicken Thighs with Orzo and Greek Tomato Sauce
Description: Two bone-in chicken thighs are seared until golden and finished in a rich Greek tomato sauce with a handful of orzo cooked right in the pan. It is a hearty, Mediterranean-inspired weeknight dinner that comes together in about 40 minutes.
Sale items used: Fresh bone-in chicken thighs ($0.99/lb), Eridanous orzo pasta ($1.09), Eridanous Greek tomato sauce ($2.29)
Prep time: 40 minutes
Serving note: Use approximately 0.75 lb of bone-in chicken thighs (about 2 thighs) at $0.99/lb, costing roughly $0.74. Cook 1/3 cup dry orzo and use half the jar of Greek tomato sauce, saving the rest for another use.

Tuesday
Meal: Sauteed Dulano Chicken Sausage with Marinated Roasted Red Peppers and Spaghetti
Description: Sliced Dulano chicken sausage is sauteed until lightly browned, then tossed with sweet marinated roasted red peppers and al dente thin spaghetti for a quick and colorful pasta dinner. A pinch of crushed red pepper adds a gentle kick to round out the flavors.
Sale items used: Dulano chicken sausage ($1.99), Eridanous marinated roasted red peppers ($2.99), Combino thin spaghetti ($0.98), Crushed red pepper ($0.99)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use 2 links of chicken sausage from the pack (roughly half the package). Cook 2 oz dry spaghetti for one serving. Use about one-third of the jar of roasted red peppers. A small pinch of crushed red pepper goes a long way; the rest of the jar keeps for weeks.
Wednesday
Meal: Braised Boneless Country Style Ribs with Vidalia Onions and Avocado Salad
Description: One or two boneless country style ribs are slowly braised with sweet Vidalia onions until fork-tender and deeply savory. A simple side salad of sliced avocado with spring mix and a drizzle of olive oil balances the richness of the pork.
Sale items used: Fresh boneless country style ribs ($2.99), Vidalia onions ($2.69 for 3 lb bag), Avocados ($3.49 for 4 ct), Organic spring mix ($2.99)
Prep time: 75 minutes
Serving note: Use about 0.5 lb of ribs (1 to 2 pieces) from the package; freeze or refrigerate the rest for another meal. Use one avocado from the 4-count bag and a large handful of spring mix. Use one small Vidalia onion from the 3 lb bag. Make-ahead tip: braise the ribs up to a day ahead and reheat gently on the stovetop while you assemble the salad.
Thursday
Meal: Skillet Ground Turkey with Feta, Sundried Tomatoes, and Capers over Spaghetti
Description: Seasoned ground turkey is browned in a skillet and tossed with briny capers, tangy sundried tomatoes, and crumbled barrel-aged feta, then served over a nest of thin spaghetti. The combination of salty, savory, and slightly sweet flavors makes this a satisfying and impressive one-pan pasta.
Sale items used: Fresh ground turkey 85% lean ($3.99), Eridanous barrel aged feta cheese in brine ($6.99), Eridanous sundried tomatoes in brine ($2.49), Eridanous capers ($1.29), Combino thin spaghetti ($0.98)
Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Use about 1/3 lb of ground turkey for one serving; portion and freeze the rest. Cook 2 oz dry spaghetti. Crumble about 1.5 oz of feta over the dish. Use 2 to 3 sundried tomatoes and 1 teaspoon of capers. Remaining feta, sundried tomatoes, and capers all keep well refrigerated for future use.

Friday
Meal: Seared Fresh Sea Scallops and Shrimp with Halloumi and Spring Mix Salad
Description: Fresh sea scallops and shrimp are seared in a hot pan until golden and just cooked through, then served alongside pan-grilled halloumi slices over a bed of organic spring mix. It is an elegant, restaurant-quality meal that comes together in under 30 minutes and feels like a true end-of-week treat.
Sale items used: Fresh sea scallops & shrimp ($8.99), Eridanous halloumi grilling cheese ($3.99), Organic spring mix ($2.99)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: The $8.99 package of sea scallops and shrimp is sized as a single-use portion for one person; use the entire package. Slice about half the halloumi block into 3 to 4 slabs and grill or sear them; wrap and refrigerate the remaining half for snacking or another meal. Use a generous handful of spring mix from the bag already purchased on Wednesday.
