Giant Low-Carb Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
Why these meals: Since you're shopping at Giant this week, I built five low-carb dinners around a different protein each night: chicken breasts on Monday, smoked sausage on Tuesday, pork chops on Wednesday, ground beef on Thursday and shrimp on Friday. The chicken breasts are only $3.98 for 2 lbs and the sausage is 2 packs for $7.00, so the first two nights are easy on the cart. One Giant Butter covers the garlic butter on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and the 2 packs of Daisy Sour Cream ($5.00) stretch across Tuesday's sausage skillet and Thursday's bunless cheeseburger bowls. Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cucumbers, tomatoes and lettuce fill the plates, so you never need bread, rice or pasta.
