Publix Vegetarian Meal Plan

5-DAY MEAL PLAN

Monday
Meal: Stovetop Bush's Best Baked Bean and Sweet Corn Tacos with Kraft Shredded Cheese
Description: Smoky baked beans and fresh sweet corn are sauteed together with cumin and chili powder, then spooned into warm tortillas and topped with melted Kraft shredded cheese for a hearty, satisfying taco night for two. Each person gets three generously filled tacos, making this a quick and filling weeknight dinner that comes together in under 30 minutes.
Sale items used: Bush's Best Baked Beans (2 for $3.00), Bulk Sweet Corn (5 for $3.00), Kraft Shredded Cheese (2 for $6.00)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use 1 can (15.8 oz) of baked beans and 2 ears of sweet corn, cut from the cob, for 2 people yielding 6 tacos total (3 per person); use half of one 6-8 oz bag of Kraft shredded cheese; tortillas are a pantry staple.

Tuesday
Meal: Baked Ricotta and Campari Tomato Stuffed Puff Pastry Tarts with Parmesan
Description: Creamy Polly-O ricotta is seasoned with fresh herbs and spooned into golden GreenWise puff pastry shells, then topped with sliced Campari tomatoes and a generous shower of Belgioioso Parmesan before baking until bubbling and bronzed. Two large individual tarts make an elegant and satisfying dinner for two, with the flaky pastry and rich cheese filling making this feel far more indulgent than the price suggests.
Sale items used: Polly-O Ricotta Cheese BOGO, GreenWise Puff Pastry Sheets ($4.99), Campari Tomatoes BOGO, Belgioioso Parmesan Cheese ($3.99)

Serving note: Use half of one 15-oz cup of ricotta (save the rest for another use), one sheet of puff pastry cut into two large rectangles, half of one 1-lb pkg of Campari tomatoes, and 2 oz of Parmesan for 2 individual tarts; make-ahead tip: assemble tarts up to 2 hours ahead and refrigerate unbaked, then bake at 400 degrees F for 20-22 minutes just before serving.

Wednesday
Meal: Simmered Bush's Best Baked Bean and Broccoli Stew over Zatarain's Rice
Description: Two cans of Bush's Best Baked Beans are simmered with fresh broccoli florets, diced Campari tomatoes, smoked paprika, and garlic into a thick, hearty stew that is ladled over fluffy Zatarain's seasoned rice for a complete and comforting meal. This protein-rich vegetarian stew is deeply flavorful and comes together in one pot in about 30 minutes, making it an ideal midweek dinner for two.

Thursday
