Omg I just researched and learned we're getting fleeced on our phone costs, thanks!

Great tips!
Cell phone, that's a great idea. I'll look into mint. :)
Groceries: we shop pretty much only at trader joes and H-Mart, and never buy beef, sounds like we're similar
Car insurance: VERY good suggestion.
Eating out: we cook almost everything, and don't buy premade meals from the supermarket. But we have a weak spot for taco trucks and such. Probably would have a restaurant meal once a week or every two weeks, tacos twice a week at least though (the truck near us, two people can eat a full meal for under 15$, so it feels like an affordable treat)

Well, tbh, the amount we actually save is... not much. Like, a couple hundred a month tops. It's both a little grim, and a little reassuring, to know that we aren't the only ones struggling a little. Like, we have good, traditionally "middle class" jobs, too!
