Vegan Fajita Rice Bowl Recipe that is oil free, gluten free, vegan, and 21 day fix friendly. This plant based dinner can be prepared in 30 minutes, contains 460 calories, 21 g of protein, and is about $1.70 per serving.

Do you also enjoy frugal and healthy recipes? 

This vegan fajita rice bowl recipe is only $1.70 per plate, but filled with important vitamins and minerals. You can use it as a weight loss meal, a healthy dinner idea, or simply as a budget friendly meal. No need to be a vegan to try out this delicious fajita recipe.

Instead of using meat for the fajita, this recipe contains 4 different vegetables that can be switched out and kidney beans as the protein source. Because the mix is served over brown rice instead of the tortilla bread, the vegan fajita rice bowl is also a gluten free meal.

I did not cook the fajita veggies in oil, instead I used the water-fry method (see below). Therefore this recipe contains all whole foods and spices and is perfect for a whole food, low fat, plant based diet. You  can add additional topping to the meal.

Cost of one Vegan Fajita Rice Bowl

  • 1.5 cups brown basmati rice, dry(0.50)
  • 2 zucchini cut in half and sliced (0.99)
  • 1 box (8 oz) mushrooms, sliced (1.49)
  • 3 green bell peppers, sliced in strips (2.00)
  • 2 cans cooked kidney beans, drained and rinsed (1.20)
  • 1/2 onion, sliced (0.12)
  • juice of 1 lime (0.20)
  • Spices (0.30)

The whole Vegan Fajita Rice Bowl would be around $6.80 and that makes $1.70 per serving. You can cut the cost down by buying the veggies that are in season or on sale. Note that the prices above depend on season and store.
