A big concern for many people about transitioning to a vegan diet is the price of groceries and food. However, the idea that eating vegan has to be expensive is far from the truth. You can make this white rice and teriyaki tofu bowl for only $1.28 per serving!

Take-out may be one of your favorite meals, but it can add up quickly without you noticing. Typically takeout is also not going to be the most nutritious meal you’ve ever eaten. To solve both of these problems, Crowded Kitchen on TikTok shared this healthy and homemade alternative that will satisfy those take-out cravings, without breaking the bank.
Being on a budget is pretty easy to do if you’re vegan. By using nutrient-dense staples like whole grains, legumes, and fresh produce, you can easily stick to a budget and ensure that all the ingredients you use are wholesome and healthy. Even better, it can be incredibly easy to cook plant-based meals at home rather than eating out. When it comes down to it, plant foods are almost always cheaper than animal foods, not to mention kinder to your body and the planet.
This budget-friendly vegan recipe means you don’t have to break the bank to have flavorful, healthy, seasonal meals that are 100% plant-based!
