Sounds like you are already on the right track.
What’s killin’ me is milk prices. Over 4 bucks a gallon-more than gas. I have 2 small ones at home, so we go through a lot of it.
Big pots of soup are great! You can eat on those for days!
The Mormons have a booklet about making the most of your food costs-ties in with their philosophy of emergency preparedness- I can’t recall the title, but it had some good lists and recipes for feeding a bunch on very little. I requested it years ago and it came in handy. (and no, I didn’t have any white shirt and black tie kids show up on my doorstep afterwards.)
I just wish I could recall the title of that Mormon brochure.

Costco, at least in my area, sells a gallon of milk for under $3. Might want to try there.

Mixing real milk with reconstituted powdered milk is not bad tasting.

In Missouri? Wow. Here in Iowa, I'm paying $2.59/gallon for 2% at Aldi. Sam's Club and everyone else is a tad over $3 though.

Maybe we should ask those who might know.

Check the Church’s website. I think they have all those things online now.
