Piggly Wiggly Gluten-Free Meal Plan

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

BUDGET RATIONALE

Corrected order by per-serving cost: beans ($0.33), chorizo ($0.50), pork chops ($0.80), tilapia ($1.00), whole chicken ($2.11), Fresh Ground Chuck at $5.49/lb (about $5.49 for 1 lb, roughly $1.37 per serving, which sits between tilapia and chicken).

Final order: beans $0.33, chorizo $0.50, pork chops $0.80, tilapia $1.00, ground chuck $1.37, whole chicken $2.11.

Why these meals: Your week at Piggly Wiggly is built around two big sale buys that stretch across several nights. The 10 lb bag of Green Giant Idaho Potatoes at $2.99 shows up on Monday as garlic mashed potatoes, Tuesday in the chorizo skillet, and Thursday as roasted wedges. The 5 lb Springer Mountain Farms whole chicken at $8.45 is roasted on Wednesday, and the leftover meat goes into Friday's chicken and bean chili over rice. Pork chops on Monday, chorizo and eggs on Tuesday, and tilapia on Thursday keep the dinners from feeling repetitive, even though the sides overlap. Most of the list is naturally gluten-free, like fresh meat, potatoes, rice, and peppers, but check the labels on the chorizo, Green Giant Vegetables, beans, and Hunt's tomatoes before they go in your cart.
