This is the week of bringing you these awesome budget friendly meal planning for all of you Meijer Shoppers. You can find more Meijer Meal Planning ideas HERE

For this week, using the Favado App and our Meijer Matchups posted here on A Mitten Full Of Savings, I’ve been able to come up with a whole week’s worth of dinners that will cost you less than $42, 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 off of 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. (sale dates )

Summer is here and that means a robust grilling season! All of the grilling recipes for this week can also be done in the oven or under the broiler. Check out these great ideas on how to make healthy meals with Meijer sales!

Meal 1: Grilled Loin Chops with Asparagus and Biscuits $6.23

1.5 lbs pork loin chops
2 T butter (pantry)
Worcestershire sauce (pantry)
1 lb asparagus, ends trimmed
1 tube Pillsbury Grands biscuits, any variety

Directions: Split half the butter between the chops and spread across the surface. Place on a medium high grill and liberally sprinkle with the Worcestershire sauce. Flip the chops when they are nicely browned on the first side. After flipping, split the remaining butter to each chop, topping with a bit more Worcestershire sauce. Chops are done when no pink remains in the center. Add the asparagus to the grill and cook until crisp tender. Prepare the biscuits according to the directions on the package.

Meal 2: Slow Cooker Chuck Roast with Broccoli and Mashers $12.64

2 lb chuck roast
1 box Lipton onion soup mix
2 cans Meijer cream of mushroom soup

Directions: Place the chuck roast in a slow cooker. Sprinkle the dry onion soup over the top and spoon the mushroom soup over the top. Cover and set to low for 8 hours. About 40 minutes before serving, place the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water. Salt if desired. Bring to a boil and simmer until potatoes are tender. Drain and mash with butter and milk to desired consistency. Place the broccoli in a glass bowl, add ¼ cup of water, and cover. Microwave for 3-5 minutes until crisp tender. Serve the “gravy” from the roast, as is, over the potatoes.
