Meals that are vegan & also gluten free

14 replies

My sister is vegan, usually its no problem however we meet once a week at my house, I always cook but now my dad's girlfriend is gluten free. My vegan recipes like pasta seem to contain gluten & its not something I have much experience with.

Short of substituting pasta for gluten free versions does anyone have any recipes that cater for both diets please?

I have lots, but an easy one is Dahl with rice, another curried vegetable and salad, or jacket potato with vegetarian chilli, and salad. Black beans with rice, guacamole, roasted vegetables and all the fixings: serve with corn tortillas if you can find or make them, or just with tortilla chips.

If you want to do a pasta dish, lasagne using gluten free pasta is delicious. (I find that regular gluten free pasta isn't always good.)

Oh I forgot to say that vegan lasagne is very tasty: you can make a fantastic creamy white sauce using lots of onions and garlic fried a long time and then cooked with soy milk, spinach, crumbled tofu, and a good, slightly spicy tomato sauce, or you can do a lasagne with a layer of mushrooms, and a layer of kale and the white sauce. Maybe these would seem a bit complicated if you don't usually make vegan lasagne.

Agree, think about meals based on rice, lentils or potato.

Aisan style food with rice noodles could be something a bit different.

This is lovely. Buckwheat is gluten free (despite the name) and you can just leave off the creme fraiche and cheese for the vegan.

Butternut squash risotto - or use pumpkin if you are carving one this weekend! Any vegetable risotto can be easily made vegan, careful if using wine in it as some wines aren't vegan, and you can just have parmesan to add at the table for the non vegans.
