Meijer Dairy-Free Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
This week's flyer has a strong lineup of economical pork and poultry options that make it easy to eat well without overspending. The Pork Loin Assorted Chops at $1.49/lb are the standout value of the week, delivering a hearty pan-seared dinner for under $3 in protein. Eckrich Sausage Ropes at the Buy 5 price of $1.29 each anchor another night for just $2.58, and Jennie-O Ground Turkey at $3.99 a package rounds out the affordable proteins. Chicken Wings at $2.79/lb offer a fun, hands-on dinner night for well under $7. The Black Pearl Atlantic Salmon Burgers at $4.99 each are the single premium pick this week - at $19.96 for four portions they are genuinely expensive, but they are the most affordable premium option on an otherwise steak-and-brisket-heavy flyer, and they cook in minutes with no waste. Buying the Eckrich and Sweet Baby Ray's as part of a Buy 5 deal trims a few dollars off the total, keeping the week comfortably within range.
