5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Oven-Roasted Pork Shoulder with Sweetpops Tomatoes and Broccolini
Description: A single-serving portion of bone-in pork shoulder is seasoned and slow-roasted until tender, filling your kitchen with rich, savory aromas. Sweetpops tomatoes roast alongside the pork and burst into a natural pan sauce, while broccolini is finished in the same pan drippings for a complete gluten-free meal.
Sale items used: Fresh bone-in pork shoulder butt roast ($1.99/lb), Sweetpops tomatoes ($3.99), Broccolini ($2.49), Primadonna extra virgin olive oil ($12.99)
Prep time: 20 minutes active, approximately 2.5 to 3 hours total roasting time
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.75 lb of pork shoulder for one person; assumed total weight 0.75 lb at $1.99/lb = $1.49. Use about 0.5 lb of Sweetpops tomatoes and half the 6 oz broccolini bunch for this meal, saving the rest for Thursday. Make-ahead note: start the roast early afternoon so it is ready by dinner; the pork can rest up to 30 minutes before serving.

Tuesday
Meal: Pan-Seared Ahi Tuna Steaks with Avocado and Arugula
Description: A single frozen ahi tuna steak is thawed, patted dry, and seared in a hot skillet for about 90 seconds per side to achieve a golden crust with a rare center. It is served over a bed of peppery baby arugula with sliced fresh avocado and a drizzle of ponzu sauce for a bright, completely gluten-free plate.
Sale items used: Lidl Preferred Selection frozen ahi tuna steaks 16 oz ($5.49), Large avocados ($0.69 each), Peak Harvest organic baby arugula 5 oz ($2.99), Vitasia ponzu sauce 5 fl. oz ($1.49)
Prep time: 15 minutes
Serving note: The 16 oz package contains two steaks of approximately 8 oz each; use one steak for this meal and freeze the second for later use. Use one avocado and roughly half the 5 oz bag of arugula. Use about 1 tablespoon of ponzu sauce; the bottle keeps refrigerated for weeks.
Check the label: soy sauce is usually brewed with wheat. Tamari is the gluten-free alternative.
Wednesday
Meal: Skillet-Cooked Andouille Chicken Sausage with Red Bell Peppers and Basmati Rice
Description: Two andouille chicken sausage links are sliced and seared in a skillet until caramelized, then tossed with sliced red bell pepper strips until tender and slightly charred. Everything is served over fluffy white basmati rice for a hearty, naturally gluten-free one-pan dinner.
Sale items used: Dulano andouille chicken sausage family size 10 ct 24 oz ($5.99), Red bell peppers 2 ct ($2.49), Lidl Preferred Selection white basmati rice 2 lb ($2.99)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use 2 of the 10 sausage links for one serving; freeze the remaining 8 links in portions for future meals. Use 1 red bell pepper for this meal and save the second for Thursday. Cook approximately 1/3 cup dry basmati rice, yielding about 1 cup cooked. Confirm the andouille chicken sausage label is certified gluten-free before purchasing, as some smoked sausages contain fillers.
Thursday
Meal: Baked Chicken Wings with Sweetpops Tomato Salsa and Avocado
Description: A single-serving portion of chicken wings is tossed in olive oil and spices, then baked at 425 degrees until crispy and golden. The remaining Sweetpops tomatoes are quickly chopped into a fresh salsa with the second avocado, creating a cool, creamy gluten-free accompaniment.
Sale items used: Fresh whole chicken wings family pack ($1.99/lb), Sweetpops tomatoes (remainder from Monday), Large avocados ($0.69 each), Primadonna extra virgin olive oil (from Monday purchase)
Prep time: 15 minutes active, 40 to 45 minutes total baking time
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.75 lb of chicken wings for one person; assumed total weight 0.75 lb at $1.99/lb = $1.49. Use the remaining Sweetpops tomatoes (roughly 1 lb) for the salsa along with one fresh avocado. The family pack will have extra wings; portion and freeze the remainder immediately after purchase.
Friday
Meal: Skipjack Tuna and Mung Bean Sprout Rice Bowl with Sambal Oelek
Description: Canned skipjack tuna is flaked over warm basmati rice and topped with crisp mung bean sprouts, creating a satisfying and protein-rich rice bowl. A spoonful of sambal oelek adds bold chili heat, making this a fast, budget-friendly, and completely gluten-free weeknight meal.
Sale items used: Nixe skipjack tuna in sunflower oil 26.4 oz ($6.99), Vitasia mung bean sprouts 11.6 oz ($0.99), Vitasia sambal oelek ground red chili paste 7 oz ($1.49), Lidl Preferred Selection white basmati rice (remainder from Wednesday purchase)
Prep time: 15 minutes
Serving note: Use approximately one-quarter of the 26.4 oz tuna can (about 6.5 oz drained) for one serving; store the remainder in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Use about half the 11.6 oz bag of mung bean sprouts. Cook approximately 1/3 cup dry basmati rice. Use 1 to 2 teaspoons of sambal oelek to taste; the jar keeps refrigerated for months.
