How to survive meat-free

Going meatless for dinner is a good place to start. Instead of beef fajitas, use low-fat refried beans in whole-wheat tortillas. In pasta, use canned white beans that have been rinsed and drained. Or try one of these 7 vegetarian meals that cost less than $2 a serving.

• If you're worried that your family won't adapt, use half the meat you would normally and supplement with beans and hearty veggies.
