Budget Friendly Vegetarian Meals

The prices at the grocery store keep climbing these days. Finding ways to save money typically starts with the grocery bill, so I have put together a collection of Budget Friendly Vegetarian Meals that are easy on the wallet, flavorful and filling!

All of these recipes use standard staple pantry ingredients such as beans, legumes and pasta. The vegetables are not hard to find any time of year such as potatoes, celery, onions and so on. As for the price per meal, that will fluctuate based on where you live. However, I live on a budget, and these recipes will not break the bank, and make for great leftovers which gives more bang for your buck. Although a budget looks different among households, I hope there is something for everyone in this recipe collection.

One Pot Creamy Spaghetti

Just a few ingredients come together in one pot for a delicious and filling meal!

Mexican Rice Casserole


I make this casserole often. It is filling and makes for delicious leftovers!

Just for the record, this Mexican Rice Casserole is freezer friendly. Just add the cheese on top right before baking and add 15 minutes to the cook time.

Classic Potato Soup

This soup uses simple and inexpensive vegetables. The end result is a satisfying bowl of soup!

Eggs In Purgatory

Eggs are an affordable source for protein! You can make this recipe as spicy or non spicy as you want.

Chili Cheese Baked Potatoes

I love a good baked potato! Adding chili and cheese delivers on an well rounded meal. You can always use canned chili instead of making chili.

Vegetarian Red Beans & Rice

Beans and rice area staple in many pantries. This red beans and rice is high on flavor without the need of adding smoked sausage.

Veggie White Bean Burgers

I make these veggie burgers and freeze them. They are a fast and delicious burger that does not need a massive amount of ingredients to deliver on flavor.

One Pot Creamy Garlic Pasta

This dish is simple but oh so good. Pasta is inexpensive and the creamy garlic sauce delivers to make a tasty and filling one pot meal.

Broccoli Cheddar Casserole

We love this budget friendly dish! It is made with frozen broccoli which is a huge money saver.

Lentil & Spinach Soup (Slow-Cooker Style)

This slow cooker soup is loaded with protein and plenty of veggies. This soup tastes even better as leftovers!

Easy Tamale Pie

I keep a roll of polenta in the pantry for dishes just like this Easy Tamale Pie. It may not win on the prettiest dish, but it is a winner for flavor and budget friendly!

Creamy Tomato Basil

I keep this Creamy Tomato Soup on a rotation at hour house. It packs on the flavor, and it pairs perfectly with the classic grilled cheese sandwich!

Weeknight Black Bean Soup

This quick and simple soup is packed with protein and flavor. Just a few ingredients create a satisfying meal!
