Rice and beans. Together they make a complete protein so can make up a larger bulk of your diet.

Pork loin, those gigantic big ones, are cheap per pound. Cut it into three for three roasts, freeze the other 2.

Try to get Multivitamins and magnesium. Long term you want those vitamins and minerals. Fish oil too. It's seems expensive but it's cheaper than fish itself.

Beans and rice is the real answer here, +1 to this

Lots of meals are cheap but few will also fill you up.

Yeah agreed. Beans/lentils, rice, potatoes and flour make up most of my meals. I rarely eat meat but I do consume dairy and eggs occasionally. If you mix in some cheap vegetables like carrots, celery, onion, ect you can get really far with tasty meals.
