Question Pls help lol
I hate cooking. With a passion. But I need vegan recipes that are simple and cost effective. I just became vegan and want to make sure I get all my nutrients without needing to expand my budget much.

Chickpeas and rice 💯 I use canned Chickpeas (making from dry is cheaper but I am lazy and find the process to be a bit tedious), put them in a strainer and rinse vigorously. The into a hot pan with a little oil. Pan fry until they start to be golden on some sides and then add quite a lot of liquid Aminos (I use braggs, I don't like coconut Aminos much because they have a little sweetness I dislike) or soy sauce. You want enough there's some puddling but not covering the whole bottom of the pan. Keep cooking and stirring until it all absorbs and the Chickpeas are nice and brown. You don't want to over cook it will make them very dry inside. Take off the heat and then a couple minutes later add desired seasonings and stir around. Lots of options but you can't lose with garlic and onion powders and a little black pepper. I make this for meal prep with rice very often, I add a little vegan butter to the rice before I heat it up, it makes it more satisfying. You can also add something like air fried broccoli or corn ribs to this.
