Is this sentence correct? It is much better to eat at home and be certain that you have recently made meals with the freshest possible ingredients which have been bought at reasonable prices, than to eat costly pigs in a poke at restaurants.

Well your meaning is clear, but this isn't how a native speaker would put it - especially the bit about eating a pig in a poke - that is an idiom which is usually expressed as 'buying/getting a pig in a poke' - never eating one! Try this for an alternative It is much better for your health, and your budget, to eat home cooked food using fresh, seasonal ingredients, than to spend a lot of money on restaurant meals, where you don't know what has gone into them.

Yes but it's a little lengthy. "Recently" could be omitted. "Pigs in a poke" is a little obscure.
