5-DAY MEAL PLAN

Monday
Meal: Baked Tyson Chicken Nuggets with Ore-Ida Crinkle Fries and Sweetpops Tomatoes
Description: Crispy oven-baked chicken nuggets paired with golden crinkle fries make a classic kid-approved dinner that comes together in under 30 minutes. Serve with a handful of sweet Sweetpops tomatoes on the side for a pop of color and freshness that kids love to snack on.
Sale items used: Tyson frozen chicken nuggets (29 oz.), Ore-Ida extra fried potatoes - golden crinkle french fries (26-32 oz.), Sweetpops tomatoes (1.5 lb.)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use about 12-14 nuggets total for 2 people and roughly 2 generous handfuls of crinkle fries (about 3 cups frozen); serve about 1 cup of Sweetpops tomatoes halved between two plates. Remaining nuggets and fries store well in the freezer for future meals.

Tuesday
Meal: Grilled Ball Park Franks on Sourdough with Milbona Cheddar and Freshona Dill Pickles
Description: Pan-grilled Ball Park franks are nestled into thick slices of toasted sourdough and topped with melted sharp cheddar for a fun twist on a classic hot dog night. Add a few dill pickle slices on top or on the side for a tangy crunch that kids enjoy.
Sale items used: Ball Park bun size franks (15 oz.), Lidl Preferred Selection sourdough (20 oz.), Milbona sliced sharp cheddar cheese (16 oz.), Freshona German style dill pickles (57.4 fl. oz.)
Prep time: 15 minutes
Serving note: Use 2 franks per person (4 total) and cut 4 thick slices of sourdough to serve as the base; lay 1-2 slices of cheddar over each frank while still hot so it melts. Serve 3-4 pickle slices per person on the side. Remaining franks, bread, and pickles will keep for the rest of the week.

Wednesday
Meal: Homemade Pizza on Jus Rol Dough with Tomato Basil Sauce, Milbona Cheddar, and Dulano Italian Chicken Sausage
Description: Rolling out the Jus Rol pizza dough together is a fun hands-on activity before topping it with tangy tomato basil sauce, melted cheddar, and sliced Italian chicken sausage. This simple homemade pizza bakes up golden and bubbly in about 15 minutes and is endlessly customizable for picky eaters.
Sale items used: Jus Rol pizza dough (14.1 oz.), Tomato basil and garlic pasta sauce (24 oz.), Milbona sliced sharp cheddar cheese (16 oz.), Dulano Italian chicken sausage (10 ct. 24 oz.)
Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Use the full Jus Rol dough sheet for one family-sized pizza that serves 2 generously; spread about 1/2 cup of tomato sauce, use 4-5 slices of cheddar torn over the top, and slice 2-3 chicken sausage links into coins. Remaining sausage links freeze well for future meals.

Thursday
Meal: Pan-Seared Vitasia Teriyaki Salmon with Lidl Basmati Rice and Red Bell Peppers
Description: The Vitasia teriyaki salmon fillets are pre-marinated and pan-sear beautifully in just a few minutes, giving kids a mildly sweet and savory fish dinner that does not taste "fishy." Serve over fluffy basmati rice with strips of sauteed red bell pepper for a colorful and balanced plate.
Sale items used: Vitasia frozen Atlantic salmon with teriyaki marinade (2 ct. 8.8 oz.), Lidl Preferred Selection white basmati rice (2 lb.), Red bell peppers (2 ct.)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: The 2-count salmon pack is perfectly portioned at one fillet per person; cook 1 cup dry basmati rice (yields about 2 cups cooked) and saute both red bell peppers sliced into strips alongside the salmon. Thaw salmon in the fridge the night before for best results.

Description: Juicy 93% lean ground beef patties are skillet-browned to a golden crust and served alongside crispy tater tots for a fun deconstructed burger-night feel kids will love. Lightly steamed broccolini rounds out the plate with a mild green veggie that is easy for kids to pick up and dip.
