Publix Gluten-Free Meal Plan

BUDGET RATIONALE

Why these meals: This week's plan builds around Publix's best sales while keeping everything gluten-free and easy on a weeknight schedule. You'll start Monday with a slow-cooked pork Boston butt that mostly cooks itself, then move into quicker skillet and pan-seared meals on Tuesday and Wednesday featuring chicken breasts and ground chuck burgers. Broccoli or cauliflower gets a smart double life, roasted alongside Tuesday's chicken and again with Friday's baked salmon, so you buy it once on the 2-for-$6 deal and use every bit. Thursday's smoked chicken sausage and sweet corn skillet keeps things light and fast before you close the week with that flaky, simple salmon dinner. Every recipe leans on real ingredients like Russet potatoes, beefsteak tomato, and fresh corn so the meals feel like a variety, not repeats, even though the shopping list stays efficient.
