I've been known to use canned tomato sauce with a dash of molasses and some dried mustard (you can use prepared in a pinch) instead of ketchup. A zap of lemon juice or vinegar will help.

Some really great sources for cheap recipes are cookbooks and recipes from WWI and WWII. Any college that has, or had, a Home Economics school is sure to have these buried somewhere in the stacks or in storage.
