Piggly Wiggly Gluten-Free Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
Ordering note, corrected to match the numbers: catfish $0.75, turkey $1.00, bacon $1.00, pork steaks $1.10, ribs $1.20, shrimp $1.25, chicken $1.31, Boston butt $1.34.
Why these meals: This week's dinners run from pork steaks on Monday and ground turkey chili on Tuesday to unbreaded catfish nuggets on Wednesday, country style pork ribs on Thursday, and shrimp on Friday, so no two nights feel alike. The two bags of Green Giant Idaho Russet Potatoes at 2 for $5.00 do double duty, mashed on Monday and baked under the shrimp and tomato skillet on Friday, and the 1 lb of yellow onions at $0.89 stretches across the week. Thursday's ribs take 90 minutes, but you can simmer them in the morning and just finish them in the oven with the Sweet Baby Ray's at dinnertime. Since this is a gluten-free week, take a quick look at the labels on the Zatarain's rice, Sunflower grits, chili seasoning, BBQ sauce, and broth before they go in your cart.
