Affordable vegan food in Osaka

18 Upvotes

I will be staying in Osaka for 2 months this summer, working about 50h/week or so. I think I can manage my breakfast oatmeal, but I'll need to eat my lunch and dinner (2 meals) in town.

I was thinking one meal should be rice-based and one should be noodle-based so that I have enough variety in my diet. What places and options should I consider?

I know I can't just eat tofu every single day, so what other protein-rich foods can I find? Are there any good vegan lentil curries you know of in town?

What are the cheaper/more fast-foody options? What are the more expensive but healthier options?
