Saving money on food even if you're kosher
See http://www.bargaineering.com/articles/ways-save-money-food.html I admit that I don't have enough of a green thumb to grow my own food, but the other suggestions are feasible for anyone. Adapt to kosher by substituting a kosher brand of sauce for the pizza and eliminating the pork suggested for the vegetarian dishes. You can keep them dishes completely vegetarian or add some kosher meat or poultry. Or make them dairy with some cheese.
I would add on planning seasonally -- in other words, plan to use fresh strawberries in June, apples in October, and oranges in winter, etc. That way you get the best value for produce. Another thing to avoid is making recipes with expensive ingredients. Really, you can get just as delicious results without exotic, specialty items purchased just for a particular recipe.
