How to be a vegan for cheap?

They’re not a meal yet, though. Making sure your eating pattern fits both your budget, your nutritional needs and your ethical and/or environmental diet preferences requires time and effort. And that’s where the comparison comes in. Fast, healthy vegan pre-made meals are way more expensive than their non-vegan counterparts because the average western diet simply does involve meat, eggs, dairy and/or honey. Most pre-prepared foods containing animal products are produced on a way larger scale, hence the lower costs.

Also, as vegan diets are on the rise, so are the marketing techniques. Simple bars, made with just 3 dates and a couple of walnuts are being sold for over €2, which is completely fine if you’re buying them for their delicious taste but is quite expensive considering the very few ingredients and low nutritional value.

The solution? Complete Foods!

Luckily, there are products called Complete Foods, that are cheap as well as whole, proper meals. One nutritionally complete, vegan whole meal shake, bar, or a portion of instant oats is made within seconds and contains a balanced ratio of carbohydrates, fats and protein as well as all 27 essential vitamins and minerals. Vegan eating shouldn't be difficult in the first place, but these products are easy as can be.

In our shop, you’ll find just simple, vegan meals that are cheap as well as healthy. As the shakes and oatmeal come in powder, and the bars too are a properly packaged “dry product”, they have a long shelf life.
