Piggly Wiggly Gluten-Free Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
Why these meals: This week's plan builds around what is on sale at Piggly Wiggly, so you get a good mix of proteins without much repeat shopping. Ground chuck anchors two nights, Tuesday's stuffed bell peppers and Thursday's mushroom skillet over mashed potatoes, and the 2.5 lb family pack at $13.73 covers both. Monday brings pan-seared pork chops with Honeycrisp apples (the 2 lb pack is just $2.98), and Friday finishes the week with lemon tilapia and sliced avocado. Ingredients overlap on purpose, so the zucchini, mushrooms, sweet onions and Idaho potatoes get used across several dinners, and the box of instant rice stretches over Monday and Tuesday. Since everything is gluten-free, check that the rice is plain with no seasoning packet and that the Italian sausage for Wednesday's sheet-pan dinner carries a gluten-free label.
