The Ultimate Guide To Affordable Beef Recipes

Thank you to The Kansas Beef Council for sponsoring The Ultimate Guide To Affordable Beef Recipes post, and thank YOU for supporting the brands that help make Meal Prep On Fleek possible. All opinions are our own. 

Beef. It's what's for dinner (and lunch) many days! There is a good reason why we love meal prepping with beef. Not only is it versatile and extremely delicious, but it is also affordable, as well as, an excellent source of protein. One type of beef can be used in multiple ways, so if you are a shopper who likes to buy in bulk, fear not! You don't have to worry about eating the beef the same way over and over again. Instead, you can divide it up and use it on a couple of the recipes below or use half now and freeze half for later. 

But, no matter your budget, we have something to satisfy that beef craving! 

Price per pound of beef can fluctuate week by week and even region by region in the country. But, if you're looking for the most affordable cuts of beef to use in your meal preps, these are it! Oh, and the list doesn't stop here! You can check out the full list of affordable beef cuts here
