Piggly Wiggly Low-Carb Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
BUDGET RATIONALE
Why these meals: This week's plan builds around Piggly Wiggly's sale meats to keep things low-carb and simple. Monday's skillet ground beef with peppers and onions comes together fast, while Tuesday's baked fryer leg quarters roast alongside green beans and Brussels sprouts for an easy hands-off dinner. Wednesday brings seared pork steaks paired with a fresh tomato romaine salad, then Thursday features the Black Canyon Angus top round roast as the week's standout beef night, slow-roasted with sweet onions. Friday closes things out with grilled chicken fajita bowls, using those same bell peppers and romaine in a new way so nothing goes to waste. You'll notice Peruvian sweet onions and green bell peppers each show up twice across the week, which helps stretch your shopping trip without sacrificing variety.
