Kathy Freston understands that part of the obstacle to going vegan is finding the money to do so!
While processed faux meats and ready-to-eat vegetarian entrees are enticing, they can be pricy.
But who can get motivated to go veg when every meal is beans and rice?
Enter Freston’s recommendations for budget-friendly vegan eating, such as this Almost-Instant Chickpea Tomato Soup.
“I hear people sometimes saying that eating vegan is expensive, but that’s just not the case!” writes Freston on her website.
The chickpea soup costs less than $1 per serving and tastes great warmed or chilled. It is from the book Vegan on The Cheap by Robin Robertson. The simple list of ingredients is as follows:
1 1/2 cups cooked or 1 (15.5-ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 (14.5-ounce) can crushed or diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup plain unsweetened soy milk (or other non-dairy milk)
Salt
Ground cayenne
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro or parsley
