Isn’t it expensive to be vegan?

I’ve been vegan for one whole week! WOOHOO! (technically today is day 8 but who’s counting?)

I’ve been affectionately nicknamed Savage Vegan and Vegan Mandy. I answer to both. 💁🏽

To answer the question, to my experience, I haven’t noticed any crazy grocery bills. It has been one week, though. What I can tell you, is that the farmer’s market is my best friend. I’m not going to be a Whole Foods’ groupie. It costs too much to breathe in there… Ain’t nobody got time for that!

I found an amazing place in the Strip District called Market Outlet and I only spent $10. I was in Vegan Heaven!

8 bell peppers, 6 tomatoes, pack of mushrooms and 3 zucchini

This is a lot of food for $10. Zucchini at your local grocery store is about $1.24 each. This was a smart purchase. Next time I go in there, I’m coming with $20 in all $1’s.

MAKE IT RAIN ON THESE VEGGIES!
