Giant Gluten-Free Meal Plan

📅 Week of September 09 through September 15, 2026 🍽️ 4 people gluten-free

BUDGET RATIONALE

Why these meals: This week's plan builds around Giant's sale proteins, so you're getting real value without sacrificing flavor. Pork takes the spotlight twice, with a fall-apart braised Whole Pork Butt Roast on Tuesday and fork-tender Baby Back-Style Pork Ribs on Thursday, while Monday's Baked Chicken Leg Quarters and Wednesday's Ground Beef and Broccoli Skillet Rice keep things quick and hands-off for busy weeknights. Friday wraps the week with Pan-Seared Salmon Fillets alongside Beefsteak Tomatoes and Cauliflower for a lighter, brighter finish. Every dish is naturally gluten-free or easily adapted with a gluten-free tamari swap, so you can shop with confidence and cook without worrying about hidden ingredients. Broccoli shows up in two forms, Crowns on Monday and Florets on Wednesday, so you can grab both while you're there and keep the produce section shopping simple.
