5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Skillet Ground Turkey Chili with Rice
Description: Browned ground turkey simmers with chili beans, onion and pepper into a hearty one-skillet chili. It is served over fluffy heat-and-eat rice, with enough left over for a small lunch.
Sale items used: Meijer Ground Turkey Roll, Bush's Chili Beans, Meijer Heat & Eat Rice, Yellow Onions, Multicolor Peppers
Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Use the full 16 oz. turkey roll, 1 can chili beans, 1/2 onion, 1 pepper and 1 pouch rice (8.8 oz., about 2 servings). Season with chili powder, cumin and garlic powder. Check that the rice pouch has no dairy ingredients.

Prep time: 35 minutes
Serving note: Assume 1 lb chicken thighs (about 4 thighs, 2 per person) and the full 1.5 lb bag of potatoes. Use 1 bag of green vegetables; choose a plain variety, since some Steamfresh varieties include a dairy-based sauce.
