Rice & pasta can be a good basics to get, look out for half price sales. Also look into non- meat protein, like TVP - textured vegetable protein,
it rehdrates like mince. Like the other poster suggested, look for your local charities &/ or food bank. You can generally get food for or at a very low cost. Goodluck

Ask your supermarket when they usually mark down items. That way hopefully you can get things like meat, milk and bread cheaper. Check out what's on clearance too.
Overnight oats are good for breakfast and you can make different flavours.
Also check if there is a community food pantry nearby and don't be afraid to use it.
