Gluten-free Vegan Grilled Millet/Buffalo Sauce/Ranch Sandwiches!

Gluten-Free Vegan Italian Dinner: Risotto-Stuffed Portobello Caps, Vegan Cheese Crisps, and Homemade Vegan Parmesan Cheese
We say portobello, you say portabella. Either way, we say delicious! Last night was, unintentionally, vegan and gluten-free Italian night! After finding a delicious recipe for vegan Cheese Crisps, using vegan and gluten-free Daiya Cheese (I found the recipe on the Zander’s Vegan Mama blog), I felt inspired to add it to my already-planned vegan and risotto-stuffed portobello caps with vegan parmesan cheese. The risotto recipe comes courtesy of Jolinda Hackett from About.com and is absolutely delicious. The whole thing came together beautifully, so I am going to share the recipes for the whole meal!
Not Dogs – Easy Tofu Dogs Vegan Hot Dog Recipe
Our recipe for Not Dogs tofu dogs is our favorite vegan hot dog recipe and, it turns out, our favorite gluten-free vegan hot dogs of all. (But they are not copycat Tofu Pups, because the ingredients are much cleaner.)
Vegan, Gluten Free Potato Cakes with Tomato and Wilted Spinach and Decadent Vegan, Gluten Free Beurre Blanc Sauce
Potatoes offer a heartiness to any meal that helps it stick, and keep you full for a long time. We love all things potato, and love them cooked and prepared in just about any fashion. One of our favorite vegan cookbooks is Vegan Celebrations by Alicia C. Simpson. It’s full of delicious recipes for a slew of holidays and celebrations such as Easter, Mardi Gras and football game days. Simpson offers a delicious potato recipe that is versatile and simple. That’s our kind of recipe!
Gluten-Free Vegan Sweet and Sour Tempeh!
Chilly temperatures may have you longing for a warmer climate. However, if you lack the time and/or money for an impromptu tropical vacation, this zesty dish is the next best thing. It’s exotic, inexpensive, and incredibly easy to prepare. Our sweet-and-sour recipe calls for diced tempeh, rather than meat. It’s vegan, gluten-free, and filling!
Easy Inside-Out Vegan Shepherd’s Pie or Cottage Pie (It’s Also Gluten-Free!)
Want to make a gluten-free vegan shepherd’s pie but don’t have any leftover mashed potatoes, and don’t want to go through the trouble of making mashed potatoes just for shepherd’s pie? (After all, isn’t the whole purpose of shepherd pie to use up leftovers, or at least to be able to easily throw something together without having to, you know, cut, boil, and mash potatoes?) Well our “inside-out” vegan shepherd’s pie is just what you need, and it’s naturally gluten-free too!

Gluten-Free Vegan Spinach and Potato Curry
This unbelievably fragrant and delicious vegan, gluten-free spinach and potato curry recipe is a satisfying and hearty dish. We pulled this recipe from the amazing book, the Ayurvedic Cookbook (affiliate link). Ayurveda originated in India over 5,000 years ago and is the traditional medicine practiced there still today. It focuses on achieving and maintaining a balance through exercise, lifestyle and, as highlighted in this book, diet.
Vegan and Gluten-free Mock Tuna Fish
Chick peas are a good source of protein, fiber, iron and vitamin B-6, making them an excellent food for vegans. Chick peas also make an excellent mock tuna salad, which is perfect for lunches, quick dinners, or hearty snacks.
Instant Pot Gluten-Free Vegan Pasta Cooked Right in the Sauce!
So many people have asked “Can you cook pasta right in the sauce in the Instant Pot?” and the answer is yes! You can cook the sauce and pasta together at the same time in an Instant Pot! Here’s how! We call this a Costco recipe because we use one or more ingredients from Costco, but of course you don’t have to.
Oven Baked Vegan Omelet Recipe with Just Egg
Deciding whether to call it a “vegan omelet” or a “vegan omelette” is the hardest thing about this oven-baked vegan omelette recipe, because it’s that easy! Plus our oven-baked vegan omelette recipe has no chickpea flour, no tofu, in fact no soy at all, because it uses Just Egg! This makes for an incredibly easy breakfast, brunch or dinner main dish which you can stuff with lots of yummy add-ins, and which needs no babysitting because it’s baked in the oven! And because you can even freeze Just Egg liquid right in the bottle, it just doesn’t get any easier! Grab a bottle from your freezer, let it thaw, and put your vegan omelet in the oven!

Soy Curls with Green Chili Pumpkin Seed Sauce
This dish has a decidedly southwestern flavor owing to the combination of pumpkin, pumpkin seeds, and green chili. It’s delicious, and so good for you! We use soy curls to make this, but you can also use cubed tofu. You can either cook this on the stove top, or in a slow cooker (if you have an Instant Pot you can use the slow cook function on it).

Our gluten-free, vegan lentil walnut burgers are easy to make, and baked in the oven! (Of course you can also fry them if you prefer.)

And they hold together beautifully, so you can have no fear that they will crumble when you bite into them. Serve them on a bun, or a bed of greens (as we did here), or any way that you like!
