Piggly Wiggly Dairy-Free Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Pan-Seared Bone-In Sirloin Pork Chops with Roasted Red Potatoes and Bell Peppers
Description: A single bone-in sirloin pork chop is seasoned and seared in a hot skillet until golden and cooked through, then served alongside roasted red potato chunks and colorful bell pepper strips. This hearty, satisfying plate comes together quickly and is completely dairy-free using olive oil from your pantry.
Sale items used: Bone-In Sirloin Pork Chops Family Pack Fresh ($1.69/lb), Best Choice Red or Gold Potatoes 5 lb bag (2 for $7.00), Red Yellow or Orange Bell Peppers (2 for $3.00)
Prep time: 35 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of pork chop (1 chop) at $1.69/lb; the 5 lb potato bag is shared across multiple meals this week so the cost is split; use about 1 cup of diced potato and half of one bell pepper for this meal. The potato bag and bell pepper 2-pack will carry over to other days.

Tuesday
Meal: Skillet Ground Chuck Taco Bowls with Avocado and Shredded Cabbage
Description: Seasoned ground chuck is browned in a skillet with Old El Paso taco seasoning, then served over a base of shredded green cabbage and topped with fresh sliced avocado for a low-carb, dairy-free taco bowl. The creamy avocado replaces any cheese or sour cream, keeping this meal rich and satisfying without any dairy.
Sale items used: Fresh Ground Chuck Family Pack ($4.99/lb), Old El Paso Taco Seasoning ($0.99 each), Avocados (3 for $2.00), Green Cabbage ($0.69/lb)
Prep time: 20 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of ground chuck; buy 1 packet of taco seasoning and use half; buy the 3-pack of avocados and use 1 avocado today (remaining 2 avocados can be used as snacks or sides later in the week); purchase approximately 0.5 lb of cabbage and use about half for this meal, reserving the rest for Friday.
Wednesday
Meal: Simmered Bone-In Chicken Breasts with Libby's Vegetables and Dole Coleslaw
Description: A bone-in chicken breast is gently simmered in seasoned broth until tender and juicy, then plated alongside warmed Libby's canned vegetables and a simple Dole coleslaw dressed with a dairy-free vinaigrette. This comforting and easy midweek meal uses pantry-friendly ingredients and requires minimal hands-on effort.
Sale items used: Bone-In Chicken Breasts Family Pack Fresh/Previously Frozen ($1.69/lb), Libby's Vegetables 28-29 oz ($2.19 each), Dole Coleslaw 14 oz ($1.29 each)
Prep time: 40 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.75 lb of bone-in chicken breast (1 breast); use about half the can of Libby's vegetables tonight and save the rest for another use; the full bag of Dole coleslaw is one serving size and works perfectly for one person. Dress the coleslaw with olive oil, vinegar, and a pinch of sugar from your pantry.
Thursday
Meal: Sliced Prairie Fresh Whole Pork Tenderloin with Sauteed Bell Peppers and Ben's Original Ready Rice
Description: A portion of Prairie Fresh whole pork tenderloin is roasted and sliced thin, then served over Ben's Original Ready Rice alongside sauteed bell pepper strips for a colorful and protein-packed dinner. The tenderloin is naturally lean and pairs beautifully with the sweet peppers and fluffy rice in a completely dairy-free plate.
Sale items used: Prairie Fresh Whole Pork Tenderloin Family Pack Fresh ($2.99/lb), Red Yellow or Orange Bell Peppers (2 for $3.00), Ben's Original Ready Rice 6-8.8 oz (2 for $5.00)
Prep time: 45 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.75 lb of pork tenderloin; the bell peppers were already purchased Monday as a 2-pack so use the remaining pepper today; purchase 1 pouch of Ben's Original Ready Rice (the 2-for-$5.00 deal requires buying 2 pouches - use one tonight and save the second for another meal or snack later in the week). Total cook time is about 45 minutes; start the oven at 425 degrees F and roast the tenderloin for 20-25 minutes while you prep the peppers.

Friday
Meal: Braised USDA Choice Black Canyon Angus Boneless Beef Shoulder Roast with Potatoes and Cabbage
Description: A small portion of boneless beef shoulder roast is braised low and slow in seasoned broth until fork-tender, then served with chunks of red potato and wedges of green cabbage that have soaked up all the savory braising liquid. This is a deeply satisfying end-of-week meal that makes the most of an economical cut and uses up remaining produce from earlier in the week.
Sale items used: USDA Choice Black Canyon Angus Boneless Beef Shoulder Roast ($5.49/lb), Best Choice Red or Gold Potatoes 5 lb bag (already purchased Monday), Green Cabbage ($0.69/lb, already purchased Tuesday)
Prep time: 30 minutes active, approximately 2 hours total braising time
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.75 lb of beef shoulder roast; use about 1 cup of diced potato from the bag purchased Monday and the remaining cabbage from Tuesday. Make-ahead tip: start the braise early in the afternoon - after the first 30 minutes of prep and searing, the pot can simmer mostly unattended for 90 minutes while you go about your day.
