This tip will help you to cut back on meat and get the equivalent in protein and heaps of returns in terms of health benefits. In any recipe calling for a pound of ground meat, try using just a little less. Those few dollars' worth of savings on every meal will quickly add up. No one needs as much meat as we eat on a daily basis anyway. If you feel that protein is lacking, add some garbanzo or black beans to supplement... or try a half meat / half beans ratio in your recipe.
Way better for you and way better for the planet. Tightwad has been pretty inspired by
Meatless Monday, which she recently discovered is becoming a global movement. Tighten your budget, your belt AND help climate change. Not too shabby!

I must admit that my family eats beans about 3 times a week. As a vegetarian, I like them for the protein, but as the chief economic officer of my family, I like the price!!
