Thank you for continuing to make these videos. I’m not single but I do eat alone 99% of the time. Almost everything is packaged for big families and I can’t eat that much so thank you for this.
You can batch cook and store portions in the freezer, or keep extras in the fridge for a couple days. When it comes to things like tomato sauce, passata, beans. etc. you can just keep the remaining in a container in the fridge a couple days and use r for a new meal later in the weekb or you can freeze portions using a silicone muffin tray, once frozen pop the portions out and keep them in a ziplock or container then you can just take as many portions out of the freezer as you want at a time. If you have vegetables left over you can also freeze them, or cook a pot of soup or make a pasta sauce etc and freeze it to have on hand as a quick and easy meal. Things like bread and tortillas also store well in the freezer.
I know I don't know you from Eve, but do you eat separately from your partner because you want to, or because he or she wants to? My first thought was, wow, your partner should eat with you! 🙂
wow, these all look so amazing,. Being single and working over 40+ hours a week I don't have a lot of energy to cook, but I do love cooking. I look forward to trying all of these and I would love it if you did more. Plus I have been Vegan for 10 years and I tend to get lazy and unimaginative with my food so these recipes help a lot.
I love your budget friendly videos! Because you actually make them budget friendly and don't use a whole lot ingredients which are actually really expensive and just cheap for people with money 😂
Thanks for sharing these ideas! Would love to also see some gluten free ideas ~ These you'd just have to get creative (corn tortillas, gf soy sauce/rice noodles, and some gf crust made from scratch)
Hey there! 👋 Just stumbled upon this gem and couldn't be happier! 🌱 These budget-friendly vegan meals are legit delish and won't wreck your wallet. My taste buds are doing a happy dance, and my wallet is giving me a high-five! 🙌 Definitely trying these ASAP. Thanks for the awesome share! 💚
1:50 To be honest, I find that Beyond Meat is cheaper than ever these days! I've been buying the grounds for CAD$5.90 at Wamart (Vancouver). Of course lentils are still cheaper, but seems like Beyond Meat's prices are not being impacted by inflation whatsoever.
Swap the olive oil for a neutral oil that is cheaper wil work probably fine with a lot recepties. Olive oil here €8.99 a liter sunflower oil €1.49 a liter.
All three look delicious! The first one with the lentils and sweet potatoes looks so good that you could just put that over some rice for the times when you’re crazy lazy😆
I got so entranced by the enchiladas I couldn't pay attention to the rest, so I'll have to rewatch those. I'm going to use corn tortillas because I have maseca already, so I'll probably have a huge bunch of smaller ones but I know it's gonna rock, thank you!
Another easy way to save is to shop in ethnic stores. Seasoning are super cheap plus beans and such are super cheap. I buy 25 lbs of really good rice for 20 to 25 dollars. I can get lentils for under 2.00 for a 32 oz bag. I buy mushrooms from the Asian market along with tofu, soy strips, and sauces. I bought some.beautiful oyster mushrooms that I'm gonna make into "chicken" I am looking forward to those. You can also buy gluten free flours for like under 2.00 for a package of I think a lb. Saving money while cooking at home can be as simple as you want. Also Farmers markets can be a great place to buy fresh veggies.
Hi, darling, me again: I ried out your Ramen recipe and it´s fire ! I loved it ! You talked always about " broke meals" but that´s not broke at all ! Good food doesn´t always have to cost the world. That recipe is affordable, quick and super delicious ! ON friday I will try sour enchiladas, bet they are delish too !
Love love love lentils and sweet potatoes. My two MOST favorite things to eat. I have to stay away from them due to the high oxalates. But this looks good!
All these meals look so good! 💓 We just posted a Vegan Vlog on our Channel from our trip to Amsterdam and we're hoping to connect more with the Vegan youtube community! Thanks for sharing this easy to watch Vegan content! 🤗💕
Another Pizza for when avocados are in season: tomato paste, sliced avocados & cheese under the broiler/grill. Maybe add in some of the onions, or some chilli oil/sauce (sparingly) if you want a spice kick.
Ymmm😋all 3 seem so tasty and totally worthwhile to try but the enchiladas, being Mexican, I've never ate an enchilada made with a flour tortilla, but I'm game on trying it BUT the Ramen and the Naan Pizza are totally SCRUMPTIOUS lookin' and like ya say dear Candice, you don't have to look broke when you eat, these Cheap Vegan Meals are the bomb!💥👍
Never add salt or any kind of bouillon cube to lentils during the first cooking. It makes them as hard as gravel. Cook them plain, then sauté them with some onions, garlic, or whatever you prefer, and season them at that time.
Thanks for sharing. What oil is in your spicy oil. I’m trying to find one that has a healthy oil and canola, sunflower, which are inflammatory. Happy, healthy eating🍃😋
Hi! You posted a blue drink in a FB story the other day... I think it was to help lower cortisol levels. I can't find it would you please share ingredients again? Thanks!!!
Id love to see a budget friendly breakfast video without an overnight oat bowl because its something i always forget about
YES
Yesss I hate porridge, it makes me feel like a Victorian workhouse child

Haha, true! Thank you!
LOVE this series Candice. Would be awesome to see a breakfast video. Thanks!
Making the enchiladas as we speak! The lentil and sweet potato mix on its own is 🔥 so I'm excited to taste the final product. 😋
Love these budget-friendly meal videos!! Thank you for the cheapo inspo 😋
I made the enchiladas last week & today I made the Naan pizza. Your recipe is amazing. Thank you!
Glad you like them!
I was today years old when I learned Mr. Noodle Chicken Ramen is vegan friendly
thank you Candice! Also, your top is lovely, it's so unique and colorful it looks great
Im loving the recipes but your outfit😍 it’s giving 1970’s vibes! I love it!
All these recipes look sooo good! I have made similar enchiladas with black beans instead of lentils and they’re so delicious and satisfying 👌
Never seen your channel before, really good. Nice content, nice food, loving the sass 👏
Subbed
Thanks!
Love your channel!!! Thanks for sharing 😍
Thank you!

I'm not broke but I'm cheap! Why waste money when these all sound amazing! 💜Love your sass! 🤩
thanks gal!

I *loathe* trying to figure out breakfast so i vote breakfast recipes someday please.
I can't wait to try these enchis!
I just made the naan pizza, it was amazing
So good right? Thanks!
Love this! Can you do a gluten feee version for the veg
celiac folks? 🥰

All 3 of these look SO GOOD! Naan pizzas tomorrow im thinking...thanks! 🙂
Omg yes please do more of these videos and a breakfast one would be amazing❤❤❤❤❤❤
nice, have made all 3. super cheap but as the wise person said, plating can make it feel "not cheap". take the time.
Great recipes. I will try the lentil enchiladas. I have homemade pesto in my fridge that I will use on a pizza tonight - I make my own dough.
I love these videos!!!! Breakfast video would be great : )
All three look delicious! The first one with the lentils and sweet potatoes looks so good that you could just put that over some rice for the times when you’re crazy lazy😆
Absolutely!!
Gurl, that pepper grinder...you a size queen! 😂👑
I got so entranced by the enchiladas I couldn't pay attention to the rest, so I'll have to rewatch those. I'm going to use corn tortillas because I have maseca already, so I'll probably have a huge bunch of smaller ones but I know it's gonna rock, thank you!
Very very thanks friend sharing this recipes❤❤
My pleasure 😊
Those enchiladas are mouth watering! All your meals look amazing. I can’t wait to make them. Thank you for sharing.
You're welcome, enjoy!
Love this concept, keep 'em coming! You look adorable by the way :)
Awe thank you! Will do!
This looks so good! I am going to make this and being from New Mexico it has to be corn tortillas and Hatch green chili sauce or red sauce.
I can understand that!

Saving money while cooking at home can be as simple as you want.
Also Farmers markets can be a great place to buy fresh veggies.
Agreed! And the food is so good!
When you cook lentils or rice, instead of bullion, you can use broth. I use vegetable broth. Very good
Yes, that works as well and is just as good!
Thank you for these great ideas. I would luv to see one of these videos for breakfast.
Great idea!
Yes to the breakfast video!!
Hope you enjoyed it!

A little mind explosion, both on the noodles, and the naanpizza 😊 Thank u so much! Ps. gotta try some mapple syrup on the pizza..
Just a touch!
Love love love lentils and sweet potatoes. My two MOST favorite things to eat. I have to stay away from them due to the high oxalates. But this looks good!
How do I know if oxolates are affecting me?
What can u eat?
@traceykaminski7874 I can eat foods low in oxalates or no oxalates (until my kidneys get stronger).
@melaniekolomyja7335 The only way I knew was from rushing to the ER because of kidney stones. You'd have to get a CT scan.
I love your glass cookware! I need to get some.
Thank you, it's the best, highly recommend it!
Yes breakfast version please
No one else is saying it, so someone has to ,I love you .of course we will never ever meat ,but your cooking is like you heavenly.
Awe thank you! 😘

Oooh sweet potato in a lasagna would be good. I love the tantanramen thing, and naan pizza is genius.
Another Pizza for when avocados are in season: tomato paste, sliced avocados & cheese under the broiler/grill. Maybe add in some of the onions, or some chilli oil/sauce (sparingly) if you want a spice kick.

Thank you “my friend”

Ramen looks fantastic too.. I’ll have to make a version of that
Awesome! More cheap and easy pretty please!!! I’m so unimaginative.

Candy, those are awesome recipes ! Thanks a lot.
