Piggly Wiggly Gluten-Free Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
Why these meals: The star of this week is the Fresh Fryer Leg Quarters at just $0.79/lb, which is one of the best chicken prices you will ever see and anchors Monday night at under $2 for the whole family. The boneless country style pork ribs and boneless sirloin pork chops are both $2.19/lb, making them outstanding everyday proteins that show up on two more nights without straining the budget. The Smithfield Marinated Pork Tenderloin at $4.99 for a full package is a great mid-week option since the marinade is already built in, saving you time and pantry ingredients. The T-bone steaks at nearly $10/lb and the sirloin tip roast and steaks were deliberately skipped to keep the five-night total within reach; the swai gives the week a different flavor and texture without the sticker shock of the beef cuts. The per-person total lands at approximately $18.53, which is a solid result for a fully gluten-free week with real variety.
5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Baked Chicken Leg Quarters with Roasted Potatoes and Broccoli
