Yeah man, fattier meats. Always add in "good" fats too, but you have a lot more flexibility in meat choices without carbs
Okay give me some.ideas on meat choices hype

Cutting = Less food, at least in this particular case.
Another reason I would take this route in your current financial ********** You may spend a little more on the different meats, but you'll be eliminating some food in the process. This will make up a little of the difference for you.
Instead of egg whites, do more whole eggs. Instead of chicken, do ground beef or ground chuck, fish, crustaceans, pork, bacon is okay too.
Just be mindful of the calories. 1g of fat is 9 calories. 1g of carbs or protein is 4. You'll be eating less actual food, but getting more calories per gram.
I wouldn't add any more protein. That's the beauty of it. You are financially bound.. so eliminate some calories, eat a little less, and keep training. It'll roughly even out cost-wise, just play it smart.
As far as fats, I generally do nuts (red skinned Spanish peanuts, almonds, some pistachios here and there, walnuts, etc), olive oil, coconut oil, a little peanut butter when I need a treat, and then really just fattier meats instead of all the lean meat choices we usually keep ourselves too.

I add in steak, lobster, shrimp, crab and so on.. but I understand you're ballin on a budget and these won't always be an option for you.
Utilize these expensive choices to treat yourself once or twice a month. It will keep you committed too, and you'll have something to look forward to, instead of an all out cheat meal where you carb out and blow ketosis.. just eat a really nice low/no carb meal.
Oh I almost forgot.. Butter! Butter is excellent too. And half and half, and heavy whipping cream.
I make Bulletproof coffee. 1tbsp heavy whipping cream, 1tbsp butter, and 1 tbsp MCT oil

Lobster and Crab got me through some very tough times when I first started Keto! I think my body was craving the omega 3's too. Shrimp was an awesome easy meal throughout Keto. Steam it and pack it up for lunch.
In the beginning when you still haven't broken the link that food = pleasure, meals like this can save the day. After enough time you get to the point where food = fuel and you don't even want too spend time in the kitchen or thinking about meals. Just get that protein in you!

Bulletproof coffee, this sounds divine and oh so good with all those good oils.
