5-DAY MEAL PLAN
Monday
Meal: Skillet-Browned Pork Italian Sausage with Sauteed Baby Bella Mushrooms and Brussels Sprouts
Description: Sliced Publix Pork Italian Sausage is browned in a hot skillet until caramelized, then tossed with tender sauteed baby bella mushrooms and halved Brussels sprouts for a hearty, one-pan weeknight dinner for two. The combination of savory sausage drippings and earthy vegetables makes this a deeply satisfying meal with minimal cleanup.
Sale items used: Publix Pork Italian Sausage (Mild or Hot, 20-oz tray) at $5.69, Publix Sliced Baby Bella Mushrooms (8-oz pkg) 2 for $4.00, Brussels Sprouts (each pkg) 2 for $5.00
Prep time: 30 minutes
Serving note: Use about half the 20-oz sausage tray (roughly 10 oz, or 3-4 links) for 2 people and refrigerate the rest for later in the week; 1 pkg (8 oz) of mushrooms and 1 pkg of Brussels sprouts are the right amount for two generous servings.
Tuesday
Meal: Seasoned Ground Turkey Stuffed Sweet Corn and Tomato Skillet Bowl
Description: Seasoned Butterball ground turkey is cooked down with fresh sweet corn cut off the cob and juicy vine-ripened tomatoes, creating a colorful and protein-packed skillet bowl for two. A blend of cumin, garlic, and chili powder ties everything together into a warm, satisfying meal that comes together in under 30 minutes.
Sale items used: Butterball Ground Turkey (93% Lean, 16-oz tray) 2 for $9.00 (1 tray used), Bulk Sweet Corn (Each) 5 for $3.00, Tomatoes on the Vine at $1.99/lb
Prep time: 25 minutes
Serving note: 1 tray (16 oz) of ground turkey is the right amount for two; use 2 ears of sweet corn (about $1.20 worth) and approximately 0.5 lb of vine tomatoes (about $1.00 worth) for a well-balanced bowl.
Wednesday
Meal: Pan-Seared GreenWise Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast with Roasted Russet Potatoes and Steamed Broccoli
Description: Two GreenWise boneless skinless chicken breasts are seasoned and seared in a hot skillet until golden and juicy, served alongside crispy oven-roasted russet potato wedges and bright steamed broccoli for a classic, well-rounded dinner. This clean and flavorful plate delivers great variety and nutrition at a very reasonable cost per serving.
Sale items used: GreenWise Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast at $4.99/lb, Extra Large Russet Potatoes at $0.99/lb, Broccoli (each bunch) 2 for $6.00
Prep time: 45 minutes
Serving note: Plan on about 1 lb of chicken breast for two people (approximately $4.99 total); use about 1 lb of russet potatoes ($0.99) and 1 bunch of broccoli ($3.00). Potatoes go in the oven first at 425 degrees F for about 30 minutes, then sear the chicken while broccoli steams so everything finishes at the same time.

Meal: Garlic-Butter Pan-Seared White Shrimp with Steamed Green Beans and Crusty Italian Five Grain Baguette
Description: Large white shrimp are quickly pan-seared in garlic butter until pink and slightly caramelized, served alongside crisp steamed green beans and thick slices of warm Italian Five Grain Baguette for dipping. This elegant yet effortless dinner for two feels restaurant-quality and comes together in about 20 minutes.

Friday
Meal: Holmes Smokehouse Rope Sausage and Ground Round Beef Chili with Bush's Best Beans and Carrots
Description: Sliced Holmes Smokehouse rope sausage and browned ground round beef are simmered together with Bush's Best beans, diced carrots, canned tomatoes, and bold chili spices into a thick and smoky chili that is perfect for two on a Friday night. This hearty pot of chili is easy to make in one pot and tastes even better with a slice of leftover baguette on the side.
Sale items used: Holmes Smokehouse Rope Sausage (12-oz pkg) 2 for $10.00 (1 pkg used), Ground Round (3-lbs or More Package) at $7.99/lb, Bush's Best Beans (15-16-oz can) 4 for $5.00, Publix Baby Cut Carrots (1-lb bag) at $1.29, Publix Vegetables (14.25-15.25-oz can) 10 for $10.00 (1 can of diced tomatoes)

Serving note: Use 1 pkg (12 oz) of rope sausage and about 0.75 lb of ground round (approximately $6.00 worth) for a generous chili for two; 1 can of beans and 1 can of diced tomatoes round out the pot; the full 1-lb bag of carrots can be used partly in the chili and the rest as a snack. Ground round requires purchasing a 3-lb minimum package at $7.99/lb - portion out 0.75 lb for this meal and freeze the remainder for future use.
