I was raised a veggie. I had my 1st steak in Australia age 18 and had to reassess some fundamentals!
Good quality meat is expensive ... but then because it’s pricey I’m more likely to get a bit creative cooking with it to make it go further.
For example cooking a chilli heavy on various beans/chickpeas and just a bit of lamb/beef. Or a soup heavy on lentils/barley/root-veg, light on ham. Or a massive tomato pasta sauce with just a 50g of a beef and pork mixed and fennel and pepper for flavour.
Meat should be a kinda special, not-cheap thing. Fish and eggs are easy protein wins.
