Wednesday
Meal: Baked Egg and Sartori Cheese Strata
Description: Dairy. Cubed bread soaks in a savory egg custard with shredded Sartori cheese, then bakes into a golden, puffed single-serving strata. It is a meatless dinner, so there is no meat in the meal.
Sale items used: Vital Farms Large Pasture Raised Eggs, Sartori Cheese Wedge, Meijer Half Loaf Bread
Prep time: 50 minutes
Serving note: Use 3 eggs, 2 slices of bread (about 2 cups cubed), 1.5 oz of Sartori cheese (about 1/3 of the wedge), 2 tbsp water, salt, pepper and a pinch of garlic powder. Bake in an olive-oil-greased ramekin or small dish at 350 F for 30 to 35 minutes. For a make-ahead option, assemble it the night before and refrigerate so the bread soaks. Choose a kosher-certified cheese.

Thursday
Meal: Turkey Meatball and Creamer Potato Soup
Description: Meat. Small ground turkey meatballs simmer with diced creamer potatoes and onion in a savory broth for a cozy bowl made for one. It uses no dairy, only olive oil and broth.
Sale items used: Jennie-O 93% Lean Ground Turkey, The Little Potato Company Creamer Potatoes, Pacific Organic Broth
Prep time: 45 minutes
Serving note: Use 1/3 lb of ground turkey (about 5 oz, from a package assumed to be about 1 lb), 6 oz of creamer potatoes, diced, and 1.5 cups of broth. Add 2 tbsp diced onion, 1 tbsp breadcrumbs or crushed bread heel, salt, pepper and parsley. Form 5 to 6 small meatballs and simmer them with the potatoes for 20 to 25 minutes. Freeze the remaining ground turkey and refrigerate the rest of the broth for another use. Choose kosher-certified turkey and broth.

Meal: Pan-Seared Beef Kofta-Style Patties with Sabra Hummus and Honeycrisp Apple Slices
Description: Meat. Spiced ground beef patties are pan-seared until browned, then served over a scoop of Sabra hummus with crisp Honeycrisp apple slices on the side. The cool, crunchy apple balances the warm cumin-spiced beef, and the hummus is a dairy-free sauce.
