Healthy, Easy, Gluten Free Meal Ideas

Healthy, Easy, Gluten Free Meal Ideas
July 20, 2010 by Katie Bauer

Yes, it is possible to eat without wheat! North American culture is overly reliant upon grains. Yes, a gluten free gourmet can replace gluten containing grains and flours in her diet with gluten free grains and flours; however, it is preferable to eat whole grains in moderation only and consume most of your body’s carbohydrate needs from vegetables instead. So, with that in mind… would you like some ideas?

Small, quick breakfast ideas:

  • No sugar added whole milk yogurt or coconut yogurt for dairy free with fruit and nuts or seeds or chia “pudding” made with dairy free milk
  • Smoothie made with high quality, raw hemp protein, raw whey protein (contains dairy) or rice protein; fruit if desired; flax oil or ground flax seeds; nuts, coconut and water or coconut milk
  • Cottage cheese, tomatoes, walnuts, seaweed powder, and cucumbers or cashews blended with water to ideal consistency and mixed with veggies or fruits for dairy-free
  • A slice of cheese
  • A handful of nuts or seeds.
  • 1 or 2 hardboiled eggs prepared the night before or while you get ready in the morning
  • Make a large batch of bone marrow broth, once a week and reheat a bowl for breakfast
  • Nuts, seeds, cinnamon and fruit (if eating grains, can combine with quinoa or sprouted buckwheat to keep raw)
  • Natural meats pre-cooked

Bigger breakfast ideas:

  • Crustless quiche made with spinach (or other greens), cheese (optional, omit if dairy free), vegetables, eggs (and meat if you would like)
  • Pancakes made w/ eggs, almond flour, nuts, seeds and fruit if desired
  • Breakfast burrito (use corn, hemp, or brown rice tortillas if eating grains or wrap in collards or lettuce for grain-free), eggs, vegetables, yogurt (coconut or whole cream) and salsa.
  • Veggie Frittata
  • Poached eggs and greens
  • Leftover lunch or dinner if comfortable eating non-breakfast foods

Mid morning and mid afternoon snacks ideas:

  • Celery sticks with nut or seed butter
  • Hard boiled eggs
  • Salad
  • Nori wraps – nori wrapped around cucumber, avocado, vegetables, etc
  • Hummus with cut up vegetables
  • Cheese or nut/seed butter and apple slices
  • Raw and soaked nuts and seeds
  • Yogurt (whole milk or coconut) with nuts or seeds and fruit
  • Cottage cheese with vegetables and seeds or cashew cream
  • Pumpkin seed pesto with veggie slices

Lunch ideas:

  • Green leafy salads, topped with nuts and/or seeds, egg and/or cooked beans and/or anchovies or turkey, avocado slices, and vegetable slices
  • Spring rolls or nori rolls filled with seeds, avocado, shrimp or other fish or tempeh, sliced carrots and/or cucumber and/or radishes. Served with a dipping sauce (nut butter, tamari, lime juice, and a few drops of honey)
  • Dinner leftovers from previous evening
  • Lettuce rollups with hummus, sliced vegetables and fish of choice
  • Lettuce rollup with tuna, tomato, carrots, and avocado

Dinner ideas

  • Choice of beans (optional), chicken, veggies, and/or cashews stir fried and served with salsa, guacamole, and yogurt over lettuce, food processed cauliflower or spaghetti squash noodles
  • Chili, made with bison, choice of beans, tomatoes, cilantro, and yogurt
  • Served with cornbread and butter
  • Halibut with avocado salsa
  • Black bean burrito with rice, hemp, or corn tortillas
  • Lasagna using thinly sliced eggplant or zucchini as the “noodles.” Use gluten free, sugar free tomato or pasta sauce, mushrooms, spinach, and cheese. Serve with salad of raw greens and vegetables, drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar

Dessert ideas (when necessary) and immediately following a meal:

  • Chia pudding made with fruit, nuts, cinnamon, and honey. Served with yogurt or milk
  • Yogurt (coconut or whole cream) with nuts, seeds, and fruit
  • Banana or apple with nut/seed butter
  • Unsulphured, dried fruit mixed with nuts and seeds
  • Coconut, nut butter balls with honey
  • Not-Peanut Butter Cups (gluten free, dairy free, raw)
  • Chocolate-Strawberry Ice “Cream” (gluten free, dairy free)
