Make a stir fry using a little bit of sliced meat and lots of vegetables. Serve with brown rice.
Make a veggie rich pasta sauce, serve with a good artisanal bread and EVOO.
Vegetable and bean soups served with a good bread. And a fruit compote or fruit salad to follow.
Salad Nicoise uses a small amount of tuna, and some hard boiled eggs, plus potatoes, tomatoes and green beans.

I tend to use a great deal of chicken and turkey, they are relatively inexpensive and can be substituted into just about any recipe that calls for any other meat. Fish is also a good substitute to cut down on red meat and pork.

"people who eat a lot of red and processed meats have greater risk of developing bowel and lung cancer than people who eat small quantities."
 
i think the pork is in the processed meat catagory - things like bacon, sausage and hot dogs.
 
Red meat and processed meats contain a large amount of fat.  So eat lean red meat and lots of veggies and whole grains.  Vary your meals with other lean meats, poultry, and fish. 

DesFIP had it right 3-4 oz is a serving size.  That's a quarter pound - about the size of a deck of playing cards.

Ground turkey in place of ground beef.

I would really love to know if this meat in the study was hormone or antibiotic free, organic, grass fed, ect.  I suspect the study excluded those types of meat, which makes the study slanted in my opinion.

But pork is also available unprocessed, pork loin, pork steak, etc. and is much leaner than red meat.

Status: offline 		The report was based on surveys of people who "remembered" what they ate and then those surveys were checked against who died of what.  It was purely a statistical coorelation*.  No actual testing or research into what the meat was or how it was prepared.
 
*A statistical coorelation does NOT prove cause.

Just remember OP, it is the other way also. There is always reports that contradict reports, the only difference is which report is in the spotlight today and if you wait a bit, tomorrow a new one will be submitted for people to run out and change their lives for.

Now, if they'd give up beer, it would be a party!

ed to add:

I believe in eating a balanced diet. That includes beef and pork.
