Hotter deals for warmer days! We have 3 meals for this week’s value plan adventure and hope to make your evenings easier and keep your kitchen cool. Let’s take a look at this week’s delicious trio! 

3 lbs. (Buy 1.5 lb. get 1.5 lb. FREE) Market 32 Hand Trimmed Fat Free Chicken Breasts, Cutlets, or Tenders

1 pack Cappiello Mozzarella Cheese (Buy one get one FREE)

1 container Market 32 Vine Ripe Tomatoes

1 pack Market 32 Sub Rolls 6 pk

1 package Market 32 Basil

1 pack Market 32 Refrigerated Pizza Dough

1 bottle (Buy one get one FREE) Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ Sauce (Mix & Match with Ken’s Dressing)

1 bottle (Buy one get one FREE) Ken’s Caesar Dressing (Mix & Match with Sweet Baby Ray’s)

1 bag Romaine Lettuce

1 pack PICS Flour Tortillas

Meal 1: Chicken Caprese Sandwiches

Nothing beats a delicious caprese sandwich on a warm summer day!

Essentials: Grill or slow cooker; bread knife, cutting boards, meat thermometer, two large or dinner forks for shredding.

Wash tomatoes and basil and allow to dry on a paper towel. Slice the tomatoes into thin rounds, and remove basil leaves from the stems. Set in place where you will assemble the sandwiches.

Slice 4 Market 32 Bakery Sub Rolls in half. (Tip – consider toasting, especially if you are grilling the chicken.)

Prep 1 – Oftentimes, restaurants will make this wonderful sandwich with a thin chicken cutlet, quick-grilled to juicy perfection and topped with the signature fresh mozzarella, tomato and basil that defines the Caprese combo. If you decide to grill the chicken, consider a quick brining, and cook all 3 pounds at the same time. Use the meat thermometer to keep an eye on the temperature, getting the chicken off the grill as soon as it hits about 160 degrees F, (measured in the center of the thickest part of the cutlet or tender) and wrap in clean foil/rest (off the grill) for about 5 more minutes, to finish cooking and reabsorb juices. Check the temperature again when you unwrap the foil, to be sure it is 165 degrees, recommended for food safety. Place the grilled cutlet on the sliced roll, and layer on the tomato, basil, and sliced mozzarella. The remaining chicken can be stored in a container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Prep 2 – Another way to keep the kitchen cool is to cook all the chicken with a cup of water or low sodium chicken broth in the slow cooker (about 4 hours on low, or when it reaches 165 degrees), then shred and divide it for use in each of these recipes. Hack – use two large forks to shred the chicken in the slow cooker with the cooking juices, or in a flat-bottomed bowl. The shredded chicken can be used for the Caprese sandwich warm or cold. The tender shredded chicken will make it easier to enjoy the sandwich and keep it together for a flavor-full, easy clean up meal. It will also make the other two meals quick and easy!

1 pack Cappiello Mozzarella Cheese (Buy one get one FREE)

1 container Market 32 Vine Ripe Tomatoes

1 pack Market 32 Sub Rolls 6 pk

1 package Market 32 Basil

Meal 2: BBQ Chicken Pizza

Take your pizza to a whole other level with this BBQ Chicken Pizza recipe!

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Essentials: Pizza pan, stone or baking sheet, pizza slicer. Optional – cutting board, grater or chef knife, large spatula or pizza peel.

Pantry: PICS Olive Oil, optional apple and/or red or sweet onion.

Food safety tip – Use cooked/leftover chicken only – do not use raw chicken for the topping.

Defrost the pizza dough, if needed, in the refrigerator overnight, then allow it to come to room temperature. It may rise slightly. Use a lightly oiled metal pizza pan, sheet pan or pizza stone, and stretch the dough to fit to the rim of whatever you choose. First-time pizza makers, check this out for dough-licious skill building! Check out this article on Steps to Strecthing Pizza Dough.

Slather a generous amount of Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce on the dough (start with ¾ cup and add more as needed) and top with shredded chicken. Tip – up the flavor and nutrition of this meal with some grated red onion and/or thin-sliced fresh apples! Top with rounds of fresh Capiello Mozzarella slices. Hack – for thicker crust, pre-bake the dough for about 6 minutes before adding sauce and toppings. Food safety tip – do not use raw chicken for the topping. Cook for about 15 minutes, until dough edges are a rich brown and the mozzarella is melted and bubbling on top.

1.5 lbs. Market 32 Hand Trimmed Fat Free Chicken Breasts, Cutlets, or Tenders

1 pack Cappiello Mozzarella Cheese (Buy one get one FREE)

1 pack Market 32 Refrigerated Pizza Dough

1 bottle (Buy one get one FREE) Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ Sauce (Mix & Match with Ken’s Dressing)

Shop for BBQ Chicken Pizzas here!

Meal 3: Chicken Caesar Wraps

If you like chicken caesar salads, then you are sure to LOVE this wrap!

Essentials: Salad spinner, medium-sized mixing bowl, cutting board, serrated knife, ¾ cup measure, large mixing spoon or spatula.

Pantry: Optional, fresh grated or shredded Market 32 Parmesan.

Wash romaine lettuce, at least 2 large leaves per wrap. Use a salad spinner to dry it so the flour tortilla wrap doesn’t get soggy. Chop the lettuce as you like – about 1-inch sized pieces makes it easy to enjoy.

Place shredded chicken in a bowl and add a generous amount of Ken’s Ceasar Dressing (3/4 cup to start, then add more to taste if needed.)

Add the lettuce to the chicken mixture and toss lightly. Place a flour tortilla on each plate and spoon out even servings down the middle of the wrap. Sprinkle fresh Parmesan on the mixture to taste. Roll the filling in the tortilla and fold in the ends to secure.

Enjoy!

Grilling days are on the menu! We have some ideas you and your family will love, while you are loving eating more meals with your family. Warmer days also mean grilling outside can keep inside cool and comfortable.

Let’s check out this week’s meal planning items.

Sausage & Peppers:

1 pack Market 32 Sweet or Hot Italian Sausage

1 bag Mini Peppers

1 bag (2lbs.) Sweet Vidalia Onions

1 pack PICS Hotdog Buns

1 container Market 32 Deli Salads (Buy one get one FREE)

Shop for Sausage & Peppers here!

Chicken Drumsticks:

4 lbs. Market 32 Chicken Drumsticks

4 ears of sweet corn (10/$2 with an eCoupon)

1 bottle Sweet Baby Ray’s Hot Sauce

1 container Market 32 Deli Salads (Buy one get one FREE)

Shop for Chicken Drumsticks here!

Meal 1: Sausage & Peppers

Sausage and Peppers is a versatile meal that can be prepped and cooked in different ways. Check out these hacks and tips!

Essentials:

2 clean cutting boards

1 Chef Knife

BBQ grill skillet or BBQ grill sheet 

Pantry:

PICS Olive Oil or PICS Vegetable Oil Spray

Grill the sweet or hot Market 32 Italian Sausage on the grill, and sizzle colorful mini peppers sliced into strips, and sweet Vidalia onions sliced in whole, thin rings in a grill-friendly pan with some PICS Olive Oil (in the seasonal and grilling displays in the store!). The sausage, topped with sizzled peppers and onions, fits perfectly on a PICS Hot Dog Bun, with the fresh Market 32 Deli Pasta Salad rounding out your plate!

Try our these Sausage & Pepper Kabobs!

Essentials:

Good Cook Bamboo Skewers

Simply Done Napkins

Meat thermometer

BBQ corn holders

Measuring cups

TBSP measure

Tongs

Good Cook basting brushes 

Pantry:

PICS Vegetable Oil Spray

PICS Sugar

PICS Kosher Salt

Accent seasoning

PICS White Vinegar

PICS Unsalted Butter

Soak skewers in water for 15 minutes while you prep the sausage and veggies. Slice each sausage into 3 pieces. Slice the mini peppers into two halves and the Vidalia onion into chunks. Thread the veggies on the skewers with a pepper half on each side of the chunk of onion and on each side of the piece of sausage. Grill on low, turning to ensure the sausage and vegetables cook through. Serve the kabob in PICS Hot Dog Bun, and remove the skewer, leaving the sausage and vegetables on the bun.

Meal 2: Finger-Licking Good Grilled Chicken Drumsticks, Sweet Corn, and Market 32 Potato Salad

This meal is a breeze and sure to please! Almost no prep and easy clean up – everything cooks on the grill, making it the summer version of a “1-pan” meal.

Hack – Soak corn in 3 cups cool water with a dash of salt and tsp of sugar for about 10 minutes. This helps the kernels stay tender while you grill them up. Brining the chicken legs ensures they are moist and juicy – see the recipe for that here:

Light sodium brine: for 12 – 18 chicken drumsticks.

10 cups water

¼ cup PICS sugar

¼ cup PICS White Vinegar

2 TBSP Accent + 1 TBSP Kosher Salt OR 3 TBSP Kosher Salt

Place brine in a large pot or container. Add the chicken drumsticks, move the pot to the refrigerator and allow to soak for about 20 minutes. When ready to cook, remove from the pot and shake to remove excess brine. Discard the used brine. Place chicken in a foil tray or platter to transport to the grill, and set up a clean platter for the cooked chicken and corn.

A quick spray of PICS Vegetable Oil on the chicken legs and the corn will minimize food sticking to the hot grill.

Cook the chicken over a medium hot fire, turning every few minutes to brown evenly and cook to internal temperature of 165 degrees. The corn and chicken are well-matched for the grill – both will take about 20 minutes to cook. Corn will gradually caramelize, lightly browning. Consider using separate tongs. At the 15 -minute mark, brush on the Sweet Baby Rays Hot Sauce for the adventurous eaters in your family! Turn the chicken legs one more time to caramelize the sauce. Serve with Market 32 Potato Salad, and a pile of Simply Done Napkins!

Let’s check out this week’s meal ingredients, shall we?

Shop for Chicken Fajita Pasta here!

Meal 1: Mediterranean Tomato and Scallop Cobbler

This veggie-forward skillet bake brings the flavors of the Mediterranean together in one pan for a savory, satisfying casserole with a comfort food twist.

Essentials:

Chef knife

Cutting board OR food processor

Large oven-safe skillet (not cast iron)

Can opener

Wooden spoon

Small bowl

TBSP and TSP measure

Pantry:

1-2 TBSP chopped fresh thyme, or, 2 – 3 TBSP dried thyme;

3 – 5 TBSP unsalted butter, (olive oil can be used to replace some or all the butter in the casserole, but not on the biscuits.)

1 – 2 TBSP chopped fresh or dried garlic

¼ tsp cayenne pepper

1 TSP brown sugar, packed;

2 TSP whole grain mustard

Wash grape tomatoes and allow them to dry on a clean towel. They can be sliced in half or whole for this dish.

Note – M32 Faroe Islands Bay Scallops can be added frozen or defrosted in the refrigerator overnight and drained before adding to the cobbler.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Melt 2 TBSP butter in the small bowl and combine with the 2 tsp whole grain mustard. Set aside

Chop 1 medium onion. Open can of PICS Italian Seasoned Diced Canned Tomatoes

Place skillet on the stovetop and add 1-2 TBSP butter or olive oil. When oil is warm, add onion and sauté for several minutes. Add garlic and 1 TBSP of fresh thyme, or 1.5 TBSP dried thyme. Simmer on low and stir occasionally for about 1 minute, until onion is lightly browned.

Add grape tomatoes and stir, allowing them to soften for 2-3 minutes. Add canned tomatoes, stirring to combine. Allow some of the liquid to cook off to concentrate flavors. Open the PICS Biscuits container.

Add the brown sugar and stir to combine.

If defrosted, drain the bag of M32 Bay Scallops, then spoon them into the tomato mixture in the skillet.

Top the tomato and scallop mixture with the PICS Biscuits. Brush the tops of the biscuits with the butter- mustard mix, and sprinkle remaining thyme on top of them.

Place the skillet in the oven, following the cooking directions for the biscuits, approximately 25 minutes, or until the biscuits are a golden brown. Remove the skillet from the oven and serve the cobbler with a fresh salad side. A Dole Chopped Salad or Ceasar would add complementary crunchy texture and flavor to this easy Mediterranean meal!

Meal 2: Chicken Fajita Pasta

This is a true one pot meal, with a magic milk and cheese hack that will bring everyone to the table.

Essentials:

5 Cups PICS Milk

Large 4 – 6-quart saucepan (pasta pot)

Chef knife and cutting board

Wooden spoon

Tongs

Pantry:

PICS Olive or Vegetable Oil

Place 2-3 TBSP oil in the saucepan, and heat on high. Carefully place the sliced chicken pieces in the pot and sauté until done. Remove from the pot and keep warm on a plate.

Place 1 TBSP oil in the saucepan, and add the frozen peppers and onions, stirring until they are cooked and lightly browned. Turn the heat down to medium.

Place 4 cups of PICS Pasta (we like penne, gemelli or shells for this meal) into the pot with the vegetables, add the 5 cups of milk, and Fajita seasoning package. Bring the milk to a simmer. As the pasta cooks, the sauce becomes creamy. Add the cup of cheese and cooked fajita chicken to the pot and combine with the rest of the ingredients. Serve it up and enjoy!

Meal 1: Breakfast for Dinner – Market 32 Panko Chicken and Waffles (or pancakes!)

Essentials:

Waffle maker/iron

Large bowl

Measuring cups

Spatula

Oven-safe bowl or casserole dish

Large skillet

Chef knife

Serrated knife

Tongs

Pantry:

PICS Maple Syrup

PICS Vegetable Oil Spray

PICS Vegetable Oil

Water or milk per waffle mix directions

Egg

Preheat oven to Warm.

Wash strawberries under cool running water, allowing them to dry on a towel. For older children and adults, that may be all the prep needed; cut green tops off and slice into smaller pieces for smaller children.

Follow directions on the package to prepare the Krusteaz waffle batter. You will need 1 egg and vegetable oil (waffle batter recipe is on the package). The Buttermilk flavor is the most authentic for this fun meal. If using a waffle maker, be sure to follow appliance and recipe directions. Tip – spray PICS Vegetable Oil on both sides of the waffle maker between each waffle/serving and use tongs to ensure hot waffles can be safely and easily removed from the waffle grid. Place waffles in the bowl or casserole dish as each serving is done to keep warm. They will take a few minutes each round to cook; estimate 2 waffles per person. Hack – No waffle maker? No problem! Pancakes are a great substitute, or you could use PICS Frozen Buttermilk Waffles for a very quick fix!

While waffles are cooking, spray the large skillet and allow to warm. Place the panko chicken cutlets in the skillet and allow to cook for about 4- 5 minutes per side. Panko should be brown and may be slightly crunchy. Check internal temperature with an instant read thermometer, 165 degrees is done.

Set up 4 plates for serving. Slice chicken cutlets into 4-5 pieces. Place 1-2 waffles or pancakes on the plate and top with a pat of butter. Top the waffles with the Market 32 Panko Chicken cutlets. Drizzle PICS Maple Syrup on the chicken and waffles. Add strawberries and serve to some very happy people! Oh, and we can’t forget to mention that there is an eCoupon for strawberries this week! Be sure to clip the eCoupon here.

Meal 2: Lemon Garlic Panko Chicken & Pasta

This spring fling dinner is full of flavor! Minimal preparation keeps time on your side, while the fragrant lemon and garlic aromas bring everyone to the table. You can go big on with either flavor by juicing and zesting the lemon, and/or doubling up on the garlic.

Essentials:

Large saucepan

Colander

Tongs

Large skillet

Zester or grater

Citrus press/juicer

Small paring or chef knife

Pantry:

PICS Olive Oil

1 (10 oz.) Bag PICS Frozen Chopper or Leaf Spinach

3 fresh garlic cloves or 3 TBSP jarred minced garlic

1 cup unsalted chicken stock or broth

Fill the large saucepan with water and follow directions on the PICS Pasta box to prepare. Angel Hair, Farfalle or Spirals are great for this recipe. When the pasta is simmering, add the frozen spinach.

Place the skillet on the stove and add 2 TBSP PICS Olive Oil. Allow oil to warm gently and when shimmering, add 1 diced clove of garlic. Allow the garlic to cook and flavor the oil. Note – Garlic burns easily. Cook the minced garlic for a few minutes and scoop out the bits and discard as they brown. Turn the heat down slightly, add the chicken cutlets, the juice from ½ of the lemon, 1 clove minced garlic, and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until done, internal temperature at 165 degrees. 

The pasta should be cooked just before the chicken is finished. Drain the pasta and return to the saucepan. Once chicken is done, remove to a plate, and add the chicken stock, remaining garlic, remaining juice from the other lemon half, and lemon zest to the skillet. Scrape the bottom of the pan, and stir while warming.

Plate each chicken breast and divide the pasta and spinach evenly between each plate. Top with 1-2 TBSP of lemon-garlic sauce, and fresh parsley or a sprinkle of Market 32 Parmesan Cheese. Enjoy!
