5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Pan-Seared Bone-In Sirloin Pork Chops with Sauteed Cabbage and Avocado
Description: Two bone-in sirloin pork chops are seasoned and seared in a hot skillet until golden and juicy, 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 ($1.69/lb), Green Cabbage ($0.69/lb), Avocados (3 for $2.00)
Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 1.5 lbs of pork chops (about 2 chops) for 2 people, totaling roughly $2.54 at the per-lb price. Use about 1 lb of green cabbage, sauteed in butter or olive oil from the pantry. Slice 2 avocados from the 3-pack and save the third for Friday.

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 combined with beaten eggs and diced red, yellow, or orange bell peppers for a hearty low-carb scramble. This protein-packed one-pan meal comes together quickly and keeps net carbs well under 20g per serving.
Sale items used: Jimmy Dean Fresh Pork Roll Sausage 16 oz ($3.99 each), Red/Yellow/Orange Bell Peppers (2 for $3.00), Vital Farm Pasture Raised Large Eggs dozen ($5.99 each)
Prep time: 20 minutes
Serving note: Use half the 16 oz sausage roll (about 8 oz total, 4 oz per person) and store the rest for another use. Use 2 bell peppers from the 2-pack and 6 eggs total (3 per person). One dozen eggs will cover this meal with plenty left over for the week.

Wednesday
Meal: Smithfield Fully Cooked St. Louis Style Ribs with Dole Coleslaw (No-Sugar Dressing)
Description: One rack of Smithfield fully cooked St. Louis style ribs is heated in the oven and split between two people for a generous, smoky low-carb dinner. The Dole coleslaw mix is tossed with Duke's mayonnaise, a splash of apple cider vinegar, and salt and pepper for a creamy no-sugar dressing that keeps carbs in check.
Sale items used: Smithfield Fully Cooked St. Louis Style Ribs 1 rack ($11.99 each), Dole Coleslaw 14 oz ($1.29 each), Duke's Mayonnaise 30 oz ($4.99 each)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: One rack feeds 2 people comfortably, with each person receiving roughly half the rack. The full 14 oz bag of coleslaw serves 2 generously. Duke's mayo is used as the dressing base and will have plenty remaining for other meals this week. Reheat ribs covered in foil at 300 degrees F for about 20 minutes, then uncover for 5 minutes to caramelize.

Friday
Meal: Baked Bone-In Chicken Breasts with Birds Eye Vegetables and Avocado
Description: Two bone-in chicken breasts are seasoned and baked until golden and cooked through, then served alongside a steamed Birds Eye vegetable blend for a clean, low-carb dinner. Sliced avocado on the side adds healthy fat and makes this a complete, nutrient-dense meal for two.
