5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Sliced Pork Loin with Roasted Russet Potatoes and Canned Green Beans

Make-ahead tip: season the pork loin the night before and refrigerate uncovered for better browning.

Tuesday
Meal: Pan-Seared Bone-In Pork Chops with Fresh Corn and Canned Beans

Wednesday
Meal: Baked Split Chicken Breast with Russet Potato Wedges and Side Salad

Thursday
Meal: Slow-Roasted Smithfield Marinated Pork Picnic Shoulder with Canned Vegetables
Description: The Smithfield marinated pork picnic shoulder is slow-roasted low and slow until fork-tender and deeply flavorful, yielding plenty of juicy pulled or sliced pork for two with satisfying leftovers. Two cans of Food Club or That's Smart! vegetables are heated on the stovetop for an easy, dairy-free accompaniment.
Sale items used: Smithfield Marinated Pork Picnic Shoulder Roast ($7.99 each), Food Club Vegetables - 2 cans ($0.89 each)
Prep time: 15 minutes active, 4-5 hours slow roasting
Serving note: One Smithfield roast package at $7.99 flat price; plan for generous leftovers since the roast will be larger than a 2-person single serving. Make-ahead tip: start the roast in the morning or use a slow cooker on low for 8 hours so dinner is ready without active evening cooking. Use 2 cans of vegetables for variety.
