Eating vegan can be one of the cheapest ways to meet your nutritional needs while still enjoying a plethora of delicious food. Many of the most affordable things that many people eat, like beans and rice or peanut butter and jelly, are already vegan. Vegan staples like pasta, grains, and in-season vegetables also are affordable.
The Vegan Society (yup, they're the ones who invented the word) has some great tips for eating vegan on a budget. Our friends at the Food Empowerment Project also offer a comprehensive guide to affordable vegan eating.
