vegetable broth

🥗Healthier: homemade vegetable stock

💰Cheaper: water + bouillon cube

Homemade stock is lower in sodium and more flavorful.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil has similar health benefits and is often more affordable.

nutritional yeast

🥗Healthier: grated Parmesan cheese

💰Cheaper: no cheese

Parmesan adds flavor but can be omitted for a budget-friendly option.

chili flakes

🥗Healthier: fresh chili

💰Cheaper: black pepper

Fresh chili provides heat without the cost of dried spices.

Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat until shimmering.

Add chopped onion and garlic, sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in diced carrots and bell peppers, cook for another 3-4 minutes until softened.

Add oats and vegetable broth, bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until oats are tender, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.

Season with soy sauce, black pepper, and chili flakes to taste.

Remove from heat and stir in nutritional yeast before serving.
