We very rarely eat out, three times a week we are meatless. Due to heart issues we only eat 3 ounces of meat or fish at a meal. Oats for breakfast, or an egg. I can get most of our vegetables from my container garden, or donated by multi friends garden. What we don't use I freeze it in individual packets . I grow tomatoes, zucchini, squash, potatoes, cucumbers, beans, lettuce, kale, most of my herbs. For under $10 of seeds you can feed multitudes of people, and you know what's in your food. Since protein is the most expensive grocery item we do consume less than most.
