Switch dietary option for this week:
5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Baked Chicken Leg Quarters with Gold Potatoes and Broccoli
Description: Two juicy chicken leg quarters are seasoned simply with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then roasted alongside cubed gold potatoes and fresh broccoli florets until golden and tender. This is a classic, comforting plate that kids love for its familiar flavors and easy-to-eat pieces.
Sale items used: Fresh Fryer Leg Quarters ($0.79/lb), Best Choice Gold or Red Potatoes 5 lb bag ($3.49), Broccoli Crowns ($1.99/lb)
Prep time: 55 minutes
Serving note: Use approximately 1 lb of leg quarters (about 2 pieces) for 1 person, costing roughly $0.79. Use about 2 medium potatoes from the 5 lb bag and 1/2 lb of broccoli crowns. The leg quarters come in a 10 lb bag, so portion out what you need and freeze the rest in individual servings for future meals. Total active cook time is about 50 minutes, so preheat the oven early and prep vegetables while it heats.
Tuesday
Meal: Spaghetti with Carolina Pride Pork Sausage and Prego Pasta Sauce
Description: A single serving of spaghetti is tossed with crumbled, pan-browned Carolina Pride pork sausage and a simple Prego tomato sauce for a quick and satisfying weeknight dinner. Kids will love twirling the noodles and the mild, savory sausage flavor throughout.
Sale items used: Carolina Pride Pork Sausage Roll 16 oz ($2.99), Creamette Long Pasta 12-16 oz ($1.00 from 10 for $10.00 deal), Prego Pasta Sauce 14.5-24 oz (2/$4.00, so $2.00 per jar)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Cook about 2 oz of dry spaghetti for one child-sized serving. Use roughly 1/4 of the 16 oz sausage roll (about 4 oz) for this meal and freeze the remaining sausage in portions. Use about 1/2 cup of Prego sauce from the jar and refrigerate the rest for another use this week or next.
Wednesday
Meal: Pan-Seared Boneless Sirloin Pork Chops with Corn and Zucchini
Description: One boneless sirloin pork chop is seasoned lightly and seared in a skillet until golden, then served alongside sweet corn and tender sliced zucchini cooked in the same pan. The mild flavors and colorful plate make this a fun and easy dinner that kids enjoy.
Sale items used: Family Pack Fresh Boneless Sirloin Pork Chops ($2.19/lb), McKenzie's Corn 20 oz (2/$4.00, so $2.00 per bag), Zucchini or Yellow Squash ($1.49/lb)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of boneless sirloin pork chops (about 1 chop) for 1 person, costing roughly $1.10. The family pack will have multiple chops, so wrap and freeze the extras individually. Use about 1/2 cup of corn from the McKenzie's bag and freeze the rest. Use about 1/2 lb of zucchini, costing roughly $0.75.

Thursday
Meal: Smithfield Marinated Pork Tenderloin with Baked Beans and Gold Potatoes
Description: A portion of Smithfield's pre-marinated pork tenderloin is roasted until juicy and sliced into kid-friendly medallions, served alongside warm baked beans and simple roasted gold potatoes. The tenderloin comes already seasoned so there is no extra prep needed, making this an easy and flavorful dinner.
Sale items used: Smithfield Marinated Fresh Pork Tenderloin 18.4-23 oz ($4.99 each), Yellowstone Baked Beans 15 oz ($2.29 each), Best Choice Gold or Red Potatoes 5 lb bag (already purchased Monday)
Prep time: 50 minutes
Serving note: The full Smithfield tenderloin package serves about 3-4 people, so slice off a generous single-serving portion (about 5-6 oz) for tonight and refrigerate or freeze the rest for another meal. Use the full 15 oz can of baked beans, saving any leftovers for lunch. Use 2 medium potatoes from the bag already at home. Total roasting time is about 45 minutes, so start the oven and potatoes first, then add the tenderloin partway through.
Friday
Meal: Skillet Ground Round and Velveeta Slices Cheeseburger Pasta
Description: Browned ground round is stirred together with cooked elbow pasta and melted Velveeta slices in a single skillet for a creamy, cheeseburger-flavored pasta that kids absolutely love. It comes together in under 30 minutes and tastes like a cheeseburger in every bite.
Sale items used: Family Pack 85% Lean Fresh Ground Round ($5.99/lb), Velveeta Slices 12 oz ($2.99 each), Creamette Short Pasta 12-16 oz ($1.00 from 10 for $10.00 deal)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of ground round for 1 person, costing roughly $3.00. The family pack will have extra, so divide and freeze the remaining ground round in 0.5 lb portions right away. Cook about 2 oz of elbow pasta. Use 2-3 Velveeta slices melted into the skillet with a splash of water or milk for a creamy sauce, and refrigerate the remaining slices.
