5-DAY MEAL PLAN

Monday
Meal: Pan-Seared Boneless Pork Loin Steaks with Peach Glaze
Description: Thick-cut slices from a whole boneless pork loin are seared in a hot skillet until golden, then finished with a sweet and savory glaze made from fresh yellow peaches, a touch of honey, and garlic. This is a restaurant-quality dinner for two that costs a fraction of what you would pay eating out, thanks to the outstanding sale price on the pork loin.

Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 1 lb of pork loin (you will slice it yourself into two generous steaks, roughly 8 oz each) at $1.99/lb, total $1.99. Purchase approximately 0.75 lb of yellow peaches for the glaze at $1.49/lb, total $1.12. The rest of the loin can be wrapped and frozen for later use.

Description: A chilled Frederik's shrimp ring is served alongside a warm homemade garlic butter dipping sauce and slices of Sara Lee bread for a fun, casual Friday seafood spread that feels indulgent without the restaurant price tag.
