Celiacs Disease (Gluten Free)

Those with celiacs disease cannot digest gluten. If you like to eat a lot of vegan alternatives, I can see how that would be a problem.

Luckily, most whole vegan foods are naturally gluten free: fruits, vegetables, beans, legumes, and nuts.

Additionally, cassava, corn, soy, potato, tapioca, beans, sorghum, quinoa, millet, buckwheat groats, arrowroot, amaranth, teff, flax, chia, yucca, gluten-free oats, and nut flours are all gluten free. (Although they may have cross contact with gluten depending on where you purchase them from).

If you don’t want to stick to fruits, vegetables, legumes and those grains, however. There are some gluten free vegan alternatives!

As always, I’ll add more as I see them or as they’re suggested.

Here are some foods that are not labeled gluten free but don’t appear to have any gluten in them:

Simply Balanced Korean Barbeque Meatless Chicken

Simply Balanced Smoky Chipotle Meatless Chicken

Simply Balanced Mushroom Miso Meatless Turkey

Here are some unprocessed whole foods that are gluten free that can act as meat substitutes:

Tofu

A lot of people don’t like tofu, but I find a lot of them just make it wrong. Try this vegan Tofu Fried Rice

Tempeh

It may look a little weird, but once you get the hang of it you can start creating recipes like this one: Tempeh Bacon Sweet Potato Hash

Textured Soy Protein

It’s usually very cheap and you’ve probably seen it a lot in your local grocery store, once it’s hydrated you can use it to make ground beef, burgers and more including vegan tacos

Jackfruit

It may not look like much, but Jackfruit can be used to make carnitas, burgers and more, including this BBQ Jackfruit Sandwich

By-Product Alternatives

So Delicious

Coconut milk cookies and cream

Coconut milk cookie dough

Soy milk cookie dough

Almond milk cookies and cream

Yogurt alternatives (All yogurt alternatives including greek varieties are certified Gluten-Free)

All their beverages including their holiday nogs are Gluten-Free certified (but seemingly none of their creamers, bummer)
