Piggly Wiggly Low-Carb Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
Why these meals: This week you get a different protein for each night from Monday to Friday: pork steaks, shrimp, ground turkey, tilapia and beef shoulder steaks, so dinner never repeats. Monday starts with the Family Pack Fresh Pork Steaks at $4.38 for 2 lbs, and the one $3.19 box of Best Choice Butter covers Monday, Tuesday and Friday. Avocados turn up on Tuesday and Wednesday, and cucumbers on Tuesday and Thursday. Ortega Diced Green Chiles and Sargento Shreds are shared by Wednesday and Thursday, so the two cans and two bags you buy get used up. Everything stays low-carb with no shells, breading or starchy sides, and Tuesday's shrimp is already cooked, so that night comes together fast.
