Cheap Vegetarian Options?

Question

I'm newly vegetarian (I was in the past, but starting over years later) and right now we can't afford to buy things like tofu or Morning Star meals. What are some of your favorite meat free snacks/meals? It may be a silly question, but all I can think of right now is oatmeal and cheese and crackers 😅😅                ¤ Extra info: I'm insulin resistant so I have to make sure I get enough food in me to keep my sugar from dropping. ¤ **I know this is just a vegan group, but there's not a vegetarian group, so I'm sorry if this post isn't okay.**

Answer

you need to make sure you are getting enough protein. a can of black beans, red beans, pinto beans etc etc are cheap and a good way to get protein. also Greek yogurt although it has a lot of sugar and if you are IR you should cut back on your sugar intake, I think.  try making a black bean and corn salsa and dipping on tortilla chips. hummus and pretzels.  carrots and salad dressing.  peanut butter and celery.

Hi I've been plant based for almost 2 years now being still a minor my family was worried about the cost of feeding me too but don't worry it's very cheap if you do it right you will need to buy your staples in bulk such as nuts rice beans legumes pastacanned goods (I recommend buying cans at discount stores ) then buy most of food local at a market it's cheaper this way I recommend going to flea markets on the weekends the food is very cheap and my overall tip is to try things new to you but don't buy a whole bunch unless you know you like it I wasted a whole lot of Mon

Answer

you have a serious medical condition. you require very close monitoring by your physician and or dietician before starting a vegetarian diet because you specifically do not know what to eat to keep your sugars in check
