Eating plant-based on a budget isn’t as tough as it may seem.

Here are my top tips to keep my grocery bill down and still enjoydelicious, satisfying meals.

Shopping in-season will not only save you money, but will help make for more delicious, satisfying meals.

We all know those local berries in June taste ten times better than the ones from Mexico in December.

These foods are cheap, versatile, and last a long time, which helps prevent food waste.

I love shopping for nut butter, whole grains, nuts, and seeds.

(Pro tip: Bring your own containers to save money and reduce single-use plastic!)

Meal planning also helps me eat healthier and ensures I’m getting the proper nutrition my vegan body needs!

Vegan specialty foods are exciting and fun to try, but they can be pretty pricey.

They are also often no healthier than their “non-vegan” original versions.

For example, Impossible Burgers actually contain more saturated fat and sodium than a standard beef burger.
