Thank you for showing that eating vegan doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated. I also love that your appliances aren’t pristinely clean and new. You’re the real deal, a busy mom making great videos! You are perfectly imperfect, just like the rest of us. Thank you again. ❤
Ha ha my husband always comments on how I need to clean better before I film but I only have so much time while my twins are at preschool!! Thank you for your kindness!!! Glad you are here!
Hello!! Thanks for the ideas to give variety to our diet.
A tip for making tacos so that the tortilla doesn't break is to heat it. We Mexicans use a comal but if you don't have one you can use a frying pan or the microwave to heat it.🙂
Blessings from Mexico❤
Thank you!
Why has your channel never popped up in my feed before!? Love your videos :)
Oh thank you! You just made my day!!
Great. Now I’m craving those taquitos. And I may be the only person who really loves the taste of tofu, but I would absolutely have thrown some cubed tofu in with the pasta a veggies to boil for a few minutes and firm up. Would’ve been great with that peanut sauce.
So true!! But it wasn’t at the dollar store. 😜
I’m all for easy meals. I live by myself and like having food on hand that I can just heat up or make a yummy bowl of ingredients
You are just simply amazing! It always makes my day to watch your videos!
You are so kind! This means so much!! Thank you!!! It really does mean a lot! (Especially after reading someone else’s negative comment) Keep sharing your kindness. It makes a difference. ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you again.
OK I just got up for the morning I must be tired… I thought your Insta pot was programmed to say hi to you when you cooked ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha that’s hilarious 😂
Great idea to spread the refried beans all over the tortillas to help seal it!
Awe. Thanks Ashley!
I love all the recipes, especially the last one. I will definitely try them. I'm always looking to save money at the store.
I am going to make every single one of these dishes. Thx for the inspo!
Yay! They are super simple!
It always always brightens my day when you post a video!! Love your recipes...so easy...your kids just amazing! Thx for all you do!!
Thank you for your kindness!! It means so much!!
Pro tip, save your bean water and use it to make "dirty rice!"
AWESOME meal ideas!!! Thank you
Can you make more instant pot ans slow cooker meals please, from the dollar store. Thank you!
I know I had just found you, but I feel like you are reading my mind! 🙄🥺😧Because I was wanting to look up (Shopping Vegan on a budget), and here you are. Thank you and I hope you are going to make more and share them like this?
You bet!!

Thanks! I used to buy my lentils at Dollar Tree, but they reduced the size from 16 to 12 ounces for same price.
Yeah I noticed that too! The other beans are still cheaper at the dollar store though!
@@plantwhys I was there yesterday, and noticed several of the beans were 12 oz. as well.
@kindnessmatters5215 I think it may depend on the Dollar Tree. We have 3 in.our are and 2 still have 16 oz pkgs of beans.
Another amazing video with 😋 cheap vegan meals Ali and love 🥰 the video and love 💕 Ali.
Thank you!!! You are the best!
Thank you for this!
Wow these look so good. Def going to try the taquitos---I think my son would love them---and I have everything for the pasta with peanut sauce. I might make that one tonight! Thanks for the recipes.
You bet! Let me know what you think!
Thank you for sharing!
Love these recipes❤
Yay!!!! ☺️
Like 😊 thanks for sharing 😊 tasty
I love your videos! So informative and the recipes are very doable. Thanks, Ali!! ❤️
Awe! Thank you!!
@@plantwhys ❤️
May I ask what you added to the dry beans.....it sounded like .' Kombu...' thanks😊
Yes 😊 it was Kombu. Any type of seaweed works though!
All three look delicious. Instead of edamame, I'd just add some peanuts on top.
So smart!!
Never heard of the kombu trick! Luckily I have some :) ❤
Amazing! Try it and let me know what you think!
The rice wash! 😳...
I appreciate all these great recipes, but I don't have an immersion blender, or air fryer, or insta-pot or whatever. I'm poor. I have a stove, and an oven. That's why I'm watching this $5 dinner video. 😕
You can do all of this in the oven and on your stove ❤
You can soak overnight and cook the beans on stove top. Don't pour all of that beautiful bean broth down the drain, (sacrilege, especially the black beans, wasting all of the flavor!) slightly wet and mash (with fork, potato masher, or a wire wisk) .Soft, well cooked beans will mash easily (go easy on the salt, it can make your beans not soften). OR... buy a can of fat free refried beans because easy fast works too. ;-)
The refried beans taquitos would have to be a carb cheat day for me because I'm trying to limit my carbs. Well, I could get the carb friendly tortillas. Everything looks so good...Oh and the rice (brown rice will have to do) My dollar store has tons of brown rice. 🎉
Thats awesome that they have brown rice!
i have never heard of adding kombu to beans so that it helps with gas and bloating. can i just use nori sheets for this?
Yes, both kombu and nori can be used when cooking beans to help lessen gas. Both seaweeds contain enzymes that can help break down the complex sugars in beans that can cause gas and bloating. Adding a piece of kombu or nori to the cooking water when preparing beans can help make them easier to digest and reduce the likelihood of gas.
@@plantwhysoh that is so intereseting, thank you very much! that is really helpful, appreciate it
Sad watching all that lovely bean broth go down the drain. Keep some of that bean broth to add flavor, especially black beans.
❤❤❤
Typically USA. Here in Germany you wouldn't call this cooking.
The taquitos sound good, but they're hardly a whole meal.
@@randomjournalbitsdawnbossExactly. And it needs to be a side with veggies, like a salad or a good fresh salsa.
And everything is prepacked and produced. Yuk
Perhaps because we’ve gotten so used to excessively overeating in the US
@@lisaa.5378 Yes, but I was mainly referring to the lack of any vegetables.
These are hardly whole food meals
It’s the best whole food you can get from the dollar store. ☺️
I'm Mexican and no self respecting Mexican microwaves tortillas,gotta give them color and crunch...
Ha ha good point!
I live with a Mexican, born and raised there. She'll microwave them to soften them up a little before filling then frying the taquitos.
What a typical video from some1 WITH enough money so you can see she doesnt know what shes talking about. Keep it goin gorl. 😂😂😂
