Publix Standard Meal Plan
Switch dietary option for this week:
5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Pan-Seared Pork Italian Sausage with Sauteed Baby Bella Mushrooms and Brussels Sprouts
Description: Two links of Publix Pork Italian Sausage are pan-seared until golden and cooked through, then served alongside a savory saute of sliced baby bella mushrooms and tender Brussels sprouts. This hearty, flavor-packed weeknight dinner comes together in under 30 minutes with minimal cleanup.
Sale items used: Publix Pork Italian Sausage (Mild or Hot, 20-oz tray), Publix Sliced Baby Bella Mushrooms (8-oz pkg.), Brussels Sprouts (each pkg.)
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: Use 2 sausage links (roughly 7 oz) from the 20-oz tray and refrigerate the rest for later use; use half of one 8-oz mushroom package (about 4 oz); use half of one Brussels sprouts package (about 6 oz). The 20-oz sausage tray yields multiple meals, making it excellent value for a solo shopper.
Tuesday
Meal: Skillet Ground Turkey Taco Bowls with Tomatoes on the Vine and Shredded Cheese over Russet Potatoes
Description: Seasoned ground turkey is browned in a skillet with taco spices, then spooned over crispy roasted russet potato cubes and topped with fresh chopped vine tomatoes and melted shredded cheese. It is a satisfying, budget-friendly taco bowl that skips the tortilla and leans into hearty potato as the base.
Sale items used: Butterball Ground Turkey (93% Lean, 16-oz tray, 2 for $9.00), Tomatoes on the Vine, Extra Large Russet Potatoes, Publix Shredded Cheese (6 or 8-oz pkg., 2 for $5.00)
Prep time: 35 minutes
Serving note: Use half of one 16-oz turkey tray (about 8 oz) and refrigerate the rest; use 1 medium russet potato (about 0.5 lb, estimated $0.50 at $0.99/lb); use 1 small vine tomato (about 0.25 lb, estimated $0.50 at $1.99/lb); use about 2 oz of shredded cheese from the package. The second turkey tray from the 2-for-$9 deal can be frozen for future use.
Wednesday
Meal: Baked GreenWise Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast with Steamed Broccoli and Pero Family Farms Green Beans
Description: A single GreenWise boneless skinless chicken breast is seasoned simply and baked until juicy, then paired with a steamed broccoli floret bundle and a microwaved bag of Pero Family Farms green beans for a clean, nutritious midweek meal. The combination of two vibrant vegetables keeps the plate colorful and well-balanced.
Sale items used: GreenWise Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast ($4.99/lb), Broccoli (2 for $6.00), Pero Family Farms Snipped Green Beans (12-oz pkg., 2 for $5.00)
Prep time: 35 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of chicken breast (estimated $2.50 at $4.99/lb); use half of one broccoli bunch (one bunch purchased at $3.00 each when buying 2 for $6.00, use half and store the rest for Thursday); use one 12-oz green bean bag from the 2-for-$5 deal and refrigerate or use the second bag later in the week.
Thursday
Meal: Pan-Cooked GreenWise Lean Pork Loin Chops with Roasted Russet Potatoes and Sauteed Baby Bella Mushrooms
Description: One boneless GreenWise lean pork loin chop is seasoned and pan-cooked to a golden sear, then served with crispy oven-roasted russet potato wedges and a quick saute of sliced baby bella mushrooms in garlic and butter. This satisfying plate delivers big flavor from quality sale proteins without any waste.
Sale items used: GreenWise Lean Pork Loin Chops (Boneless, $6.49/lb), Extra Large Russet Potatoes, Publix Sliced Baby Bella Mushrooms (8-oz pkg., 2 for $4.00)
Prep time: 40 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of pork loin chops (estimated $3.25 at $6.49/lb), which typically yields one generous chop; use 1 medium russet potato (about 0.5 lb, estimated $0.50 at $0.99/lb); use the second 8-oz mushroom package from the 2-for-$4 deal purchased on Monday. Roast potatoes first at 425 degrees F for about 25 minutes while the chop cooks in the last 10 to 12 minutes.
Friday
Meal: Garlic Butter Skillet White Shrimp with Sweet Corn and Publix Baby Cut Carrots
Description: Peeled and deveined large white shrimp are tossed in a hot skillet with garlic and butter until pink and slightly caramelized, then served alongside sweet boiled corn on the cob and steamed baby cut carrots for a bright, coastal-inspired end to the week. This quick meal is ready in under 20 minutes and feels like a treat at a very reasonable price.
Sale items used: White Shrimp (Large, 31 to 35 per Pound, $7.99/lb), Bulk Sweet Corn (5 for $3.00), Publix Baby Cut Carrots (1-lb bag, $1.29)
Prep time: 20 minutes
Serving note: Purchase approximately 0.5 lb of white shrimp (estimated $4.00 at $7.99/lb), which yields roughly 15 to 17 shrimp - a generous single serving; purchase 1 ear of sweet corn (estimated $0.60 from the 5-for-$3.00 deal); use about half of the 1-lb carrot bag and refrigerate the rest.
