Meijer Gluten-Free Meal Plan

📅 Week of October 07 through October 13, 2026 🍽️ 4 people gluten-free
Advertisement

BUDGET RATIONALE

Why these meals: This week at Meijer, you get five dinners built around sale proteins, starting with pork chops on Monday at $2.99 and chicken wings on Tuesday at $5.58 for 2 lbs. Pork appears twice (chops Monday, back ribs Thursday) and chicken appears twice (wings Tuesday, tenderloins Friday), while the ground chuck rice bowls on Wednesday keep the middle of the week quick at 25 minutes. Broccoli, bell peppers, cucumbers and BBQ sauce each get used on more than one night, so you buy them once and stretch them across the week. To keep everything gluten-free, check the labels on the BBQ sauce, rice and salsa at the shelf, and make sure the tamari in your pantry is a gluten-free one before Friday's stir-fry. Thursday's ribs need 2 hours 15 minutes, so bake them the night before if that evening is busy.
