Meijer Meal Plan Week 6/30: 6 Meals $43

Happy Holiday week! 

For this week the Meijer Matchups posted here on Fresh Outta Time, I’ve been able to come up with a whole week’s worth of dinners that will cost you less than $50, along with a few things from your pantry!   You can also print out my FREE Meal Planning printables that will help you plan and organize your meals each week! (this is always super helpful for me!!)

• This is based on a family of 4-5- so you will need to adjust it accordingly for a bigger or smaller family.
• All items are on sale or part of the lower Meijer price. If you don’t have the pantry items, then you will need to add those into your final price.

Meal 1:  Grilled Salmon with Fresh Mango Salsa and Broccoli  $10.44

• 1 lb Atlantic salmon, rinsed and patted dry
• 2 cloves garlic, minced (pantry)
• 1 t ground coriander (pantry)
• 1 t cumin (pantry)
• ½ t cinnamon (pantry)
• ¼ t nutmeg (pantry)
• 1 large mango, peeled and diced
• ½ Vidalia onion, diced
• 2 T white wine vinegar (pantry)
• 2 crowns broccoli

Directions:  Place the salmon on a plate.  In a small bowl, mix the seasonings.  Sprinkle on the flesh side of the salmon, pressing in to the meat.  Grill over medium-high heat, skin side first, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.  While the salmon is grilling, place the mango, onion, and vinegar in a bowl and mix well. Grill or steam the broccoli to the desired doneness.  Serve the salsa over the salmon.

Meal 2: Grilled Lemon Chicken with Corn Salad  $4.54

• ¼ C olive oil (pantry)
• ¼ C apple cider vinegar (pantry)

Directions:  Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the corn.  Cook for 3 minutes, remove and allow to cool. Cut the kernels from the cob and discard the cobs.  In a bowl, mix the corn, onion, basil, oil, and vinegar. Season with salt and pepper and chill. Season the chicken with the salt and pepper.  Place on a medium heat on the grill and cover with half the lemon slices. Allow to cook for 5-10 minutes and flip, covering the grilled side with lemon slices.  Grill until no pink remains in the center, about another 10 minutes. Serve with the corn salad.
