5-DAY MEAL PLAN

Monday
Meal: Pan-Seared Bone-In Sirloin Pork Chops with Sauteed Cabbage and Avocado
Description: A single bone-in sirloin pork chop is seasoned and seared in a hot skillet until golden and cooked through, then served alongside tender sauteed green cabbage. Sliced fresh avocado adds healthy fat and creaminess to round out this satisfying low-carb plate.
Sale items used: Bone-In Sirloin Pork Chops (Family Pack Fresh) at $1.69/lb, Green Cabbage at $0.69/lb, Avocados at 3 for $2.00
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of pork chops (assumed 0.5 lb total weight, yielding one chop); use about 0.25 lb of green cabbage (a small wedge); use 1 avocado from the 3-for-$2.00 deal and enjoy the remaining two later in the week on Friday. Family pack pork chops can be portioned and frozen individually after purchase.
Recipes:
- Pan-Seared Pork Chops

Tuesday
Meal: Jimmy Dean Pork Sausage and Egg Scramble with Bell Peppers
Description: Crumbled Jimmy Dean fresh pork sausage is browned in a skillet, then scrambled together with eggs and diced red or orange bell pepper for a hearty, protein-packed low-carb breakfast-for-dinner. The natural fat from the sausage keeps the eggs rich and fluffy without any added oil needed.
Sale items used: Jimmy Dean Fresh Pork Roll Sausage (16 oz) at $3.99 each, Vital Farm Pasture Raised Large Eggs (dozen) at $5.99 each, Red, Yellow or Orange Bell Peppers at 2 for $3.00
Prep time: 20 minutes
Serving note: Use about 4 oz (one-quarter of the 16 oz roll) of sausage for one serving; use 3 eggs; use half of one bell pepper. Refrigerate remaining sausage roll for use later in the week or freeze in portions. Remaining eggs will keep for future meals.
Recipes:
- Bell pepper sausage scramble

Wednesday
Meal: Smithfield Fully Cooked St. Louis Style Ribs with Dole Coleslaw (No-Sugar Dressing)
Description: Rather than purchasing a full rack of ribs for one person, buy a smaller portion of the Prairie Fresh Whole Pork Tenderloin as a practical single-serving substitute that keeps the same smoky pork spirit of the dish, seasoned and roasted quickly in the oven. It is paired with Dole coleslaw tossed in a simple no-sugar dressing of mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper for a classic low-carb combination.
Sale items used: Prairie Fresh Whole Pork Tenderloin (Family Pack Fresh) at $2.99/lb, Dole Coleslaw (14 oz) at $1.29 each, Duke's Mayonnaise (30 oz) at $4.99 each
Prep time: 35 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of pork tenderloin (assumed 0.5 lb total weight); the full family pack can be portioned and frozen. Use about half the bag of Dole coleslaw for one serving. Duke's Mayo doubles as a pantry staple and is used as the coleslaw dressing base; it is listed on the buy list because it is essential to this meal and is a low-carb condiment used directly as a featured ingredient this week.

Thursday
Meal: Skillet-Browned Ground Chuck with Beefsteak Tomatoes and Sargento Cheese
Description: Fresh ground chuck is browned and seasoned in a skillet, then topped with diced beefsteak tomato and melted Sargento cheese slices for a simple, satisfying low-carb skillet meal. This is essentially a deconstructed cheeseburger bowl with no bun, keeping net carbs very low while delivering big flavor.
Sale items used: Fresh Ground Chuck (Family Pack) at $4.99/lb, Beefsteak Tomatoes at $1.49/lb, Sargento Slices at $3.49 each
Prep time: 20 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of ground chuck (assumed 0.5 lb total weight); use about 0.25 lb of beefsteak tomato (roughly one small tomato); use 2 slices of Sargento cheese. Remaining ground chuck from the family pack should be portioned and frozen immediately after purchase.

Friday
Meal: Baked Bone-In Chicken Breasts with Birds Eye Vegetables and Avocado
Description: One bone-in chicken breast is seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic and baked until juicy and golden, then served alongside steamed Birds Eye vegetables for a clean, low-carb dinner. Sliced avocado on the side adds healthy fat and keeps the meal well under the 20g net carb limit.
Sale items used: Bone-In Chicken Breasts (Family Pack Fresh/Previously Frozen) at $1.69/lb, Birds Eye Vegetables (32 oz) at $4.99 each, Avocados at 3 for $2.00 (using one of the remaining avocados purchased Monday)
Prep time: 50 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.75 lb of bone-in chicken breast (assumed 0.75 lb total weight, one breast); use about 1.5 cups of Birds Eye vegetables for one serving; use 1 of the remaining avocados from the Monday purchase. Make-ahead note: season the chicken the night before and refrigerate uncovered so it goes straight into the oven after work.
