Vegan on a Budget: Top 10 Tips | Good Eatings

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello everyone,
In this video I share ten tips for how to eat a vegan diet on a budget. I'm hoping this will show the ways in which this diet is attainable for most of us. In addition it can be challenging to find room in the budget for good food at the best of times and after the curve ball this year has thrown I think many of us can use a refresher on how to stay mindful of how we spend our money at the grocery market. Hope you guys find this helpful!

    I think what happens to me sometimes with low cost meals is that I don’t add a lot of variety of produce so then I feel like I’m not getting enough vitamins or minerals.

  • @GoodEatings

    That's a good point! In this case I'd suggest to make sure you're eating some greens every day and something red/orange - I've heard this covers a lot of our vitamin and mineral needs. Greens are fantastic for vegans with so many good nutrients, especially dark ones. Maybe you know this already 😊 When I try to cut costs I usually go for the cheaper veg like carrot, beetroot and other root vegetables so that I can buy more but for less money. Of course what's cheaper depends on where we live though. Also it could be an idea to switch it up from week to week so that even if you don't have a great variety every week you have different things over the course of time. Just some ideas 😊 Wishing you a lovely Sunday!

    Thank you Malin, excellent advice. In addition, depending on where one lives, foraging may be an option for some. In my area, this summer so far I have foraged plums, cherries, mulberries, raspberries and blackberries (8 cups worth just yesterday!). As with your suggestions of bulk purchases, wash & freeze or even dehydrate.

    I get too excited at farmers markets. All the fresh food and colours, I always buy too much. Luckily our local market delivers, so it is easier to not overbuy. However, I tend to then buy the same things and make the same meals. New meal ideas are always awesome, especially coming from a different culture (I am Australian) x

    Hi! I do shop at a local "Asian" market, but they also stock foods from a lot of countries. So that's great. However, I do check ingredients VERY closely as they often are not nearly as clean as I like to eat. They often contain msg, artificial flavorings and preservatives, etc. Some do not, but I recommend checking for yourself.

    I live outside Chicago in the US and grocery prices here vary greatly depending on the store. Unfortunately farmer's markets are very expensive (in my experience, at least) so I typically skip them. When I need to be budget minded, I can buy enough groceries for my husband and me for about $60/week by going to the cheaper store (a produce market/"European" grocer) I buy mostly produce and other whole foods. But we can also easily spend $150/week by going to typical supermarket/American style grocery store and using more convenience foods

    Good Eatings Yeah I think especially things like fresh fruit and vegetables are more expensive here in Sweden compared to other European countries (but we also import many products so that could be why). I’ve watched videos from the US where they meal prep for a week for a very low cost and I don’t think I can do that here, but I’m trying!

    Megan Anderson I’m a student and I meal prep for the whole week every Sunday. Usually it costs me about 50 to 75 dollars a week but that’s quite a lot when you get about 300 dollars every month for studying. I’m trying to find more budget friendly options, for example chickpeas are so cheap and have a lot of nutrition in them. I haven’t checked out the farmer’s markets here but I would like to. Here we have some more budget friendly stores like Lidl, I try to shop each product where it’s the cheapest price so I go around to different stores.
