Egg tacos are pretty cheap and delicious.

Taco Salad (with any kind of meat, just need some spices), lunch meat (cheap stuff works) with some cream cheese on it will be a bit filling. A can of shredded chicken w/mayo and salt/pepper/cayenne pepper works for lunch for me most days.

Egg roll in a bowl is pretty inexpensive. Just ground meat (i use either sausage or ground chicken), cabbage, ginger, and soy sauce!

Tuna, sardines, eggs, ground beef, pork chops & chicken thighs are all great (inexpensive) protein. Frozen vegetables are good to have too as they are convenient and don't go off as quickly as fresh veg (no waste). You can also buy meat that's on sale and freeze it. I often buy meat that's been marked down because it's close to it's sell by date... it will generally keep for another day or 2 in the fridge or a couple of weeks in the freezer.

Does anyone have new suggestions? Most of my favorites are covered here. Pepperoni is one I like (doesn't take much), adding cream cheese to scrambled eggs (preferred meat is ground beef), etc. And honestly, buying butter as cheaply as possible to add it to just about anything.

And making friends with a local butcher/meat department manager can get you heads up on all the discounted meats!

Oh, and use Walgreens Points to document your weight, steps, etc., and get points you can use on about anything except milk/eggs/cheese.

Tuna with coconut oil, salt & pepper does it for me. Can't get much cheaper than that

I also wait until raw shrimp packs are buy one get one at our local grocer and stir fry with home made ghee, garlic, and Cayenne pepper. Then add couple TBS of heavy whipping cream, raw baby spinach, and anything else from my fridge I think may work well. I usually have mushrooms or other veggies to use in it. Really this dish is as versatile as ur imagination allows. I usually adjust my ingredients to fit my remaining macro allowance for the day.

One of my hubs most frequent requests. He's not lchf but eats it anyway BC it's so good!

I just buy my meat from the butcher instead of grocery store. It saves a lot of money and you can use different cuts to reduce cost. Also frozen vegetables instead of fresh.

I love pork tendoin. It's super cheap at Sam's here lately. About $1.69/lb or so last I checked. Very versatile. I can make a dry rub and throw on grill, can throw in oven, can throw in crock pot, can give it spicy or mild flavor, can do Asain-y, Mexican spicy, BBQ pulled pork. So many options.

Organ meats are very inexpensive and nutrient dense.
