Piggly Wiggly Standard Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
Why these meals: This week you get a different protein every night, from Monday's oven-braised country style pork ribs to Friday's pan-seared tilapia, so nobody gets tired of the same plate. One $3.99 bag of Idaho potatoes covers both Monday's baked potatoes and Thursday's mashed potatoes, and the two packs of Sliced Baby Bella Mushrooms go into Tuesday's teriyaki stir-fry and Thursday's gravy. Wednesday's smoked sausage and black eye pea skillet is an easy midweek dinner, and a $0.89 box of Martha White cornbread mix turns it into a full meal. Monday's ribs need a long bake, so season them in the morning, and move the tilapia to the fridge on Thursday night so it is thawed for Friday.
