The Happy Gluten Free Vegan

This is our best vegan holiday roast recipe! And, of course, it’s also gluten-free. Of course, you can make our gluten-free vegan roast recipe any time, not just during the holidays, but it seems particularly appropriate for the holidays, when all the store freezers are full of Tofurky roasts (vegan but not gluten-free) and Quorn roasts (gluten-free but not always vegan), and very little that is both gluten-free and vegan.

Our gluten-free vegan bread recipe is mwah! (chef’s kiss) Perfection! In fact if you have basically given up trying to make gluten-free vegan bread at home, and resigned yourself to having to buy it (at $10 a loaf, no less), we beseech you to give our recipe that one last try. You won’t be disappointed, we promise. Made with primarily with almond flour, cut with a bit of coconut flour, this hearty loaf is so easy to make, and it slices beautifully for sandwiches! It’s delicious, customizable (for example throw in some caraway seeds for a deli rye experience), sandwichable (look ma, we just invented a word!), and nearly fool proof! In fact, it’s the only bread we have now! So long gluten-free bread mixes that don’t even work! Buh bye expensive store-bought cardboard bread! The Happy Gluten-Free Vegan’s homemade gluten-free vegan bread is true gluten-free vegan happiness.

Our gluten-free vegan roast beef recipe is truly amazing! Once cooled and refrigerated this vegan roast beef slices beautifully, and is perfect for sandwiches! Gluten-free vegan mock meats are the holy grail of vegan meats; there are lots of great vegan meats in the stores now, but the majority of them contain vital wheat gluten, or seitan, or some other wheat or gluten ingredient. So if you’re gluten free and you’ve been craving that perfect vegan roast beef, for that perfect vegan roast beef sandwich with a bit of horseradish, here you go!

Whether you are putting together a vegan gift basket for that vegan in your life, or a vegan gift box to put under the tree, or a gluten-free gift basket for that friend who needs to avoid gluten, or just wanting to treat yourself and your family to some gluten-free vegan holiday treats, these seven easy-to-make gluten-free vegan treats make perfect holiday gifts! Copycat recipes for Cocomels and Kind nut bars, chocolate cherry truffles, doughnuts and scones, rice crispy treats, date bars and 7 layer magic cookie bars, they’re all here, vegan, gluten-free, delicious, and incredibly giftable! We’re salivating just typing about them!

We’re going to say right up front that our baked gluten-free vegan frittata recipe uses tofu, so if you’re looking for a no-tofu recipe, this isn’t it (but we do have a no-tofu vegan frittata recipe for you!) That said, if you’re wondering what to make for breakfast or brunch or dinner, looking to use what’s in the house, this is that recipe. It’s fast, it’s easy, it’s infinitely customizable, and it’s delicious! And, of course, egg-free and dairy-free because, hey, vegan!

Whether you call it Texas Caviar, or Cowboy Caviar or, as we do, Cheating Cowboy caviar, our Cowboy Caviar is easy to make, and even easier than most because of the cheating aspect of it (and now you know why we call it Cheating Cowboy Caviar). You will note that this is also designated as a ‘quarantine recipe’, which means that all of the ingredients are shelf-stable and non-perishable!

Our copycat Miyoko’s liquid vegan pizza mozzarella recipe (or as we like to call it, pizzarella) surprised even us with how great it is! Like Miyoko’s version, ours is based in cashews, but our copycat liquid pizza mozzarella cheese has only ingredients that you probably already have at home. Don’t get us wrong, we are huge fans of Miyoko’s, and if you are able to get her liquid vegan pizza mozzarella, by all means do! But it’s not available everywhere, and even if it’s available where you are, you may not want to have to run out to the store when you’re jonesing for some homemade gluten-free vegan pizza. And now you don’t have to run to the store, because you can whip up our copycat liquid vegan mozzaralla (or, as we also like to call it, mockzarella) right at home whenever you want!

Our gluten-free vegan microwave chocolate mug cake recipe is so easy, so fast, and SO delicious! In fact, we kind of have to restrain ourselves from not making one every day and overindulging, it is THAT easy and THAT good! Our vegan chocolate mug cake recipe does call for an all-purpose gluten-free flour, and we also give you the recipe for our gluten-free flour blend, but you can also use your own favorite all-purpose gluten-free flour blend if you have one. We’re easy like that. :~)

Yay! We found replacement travel & sip lids for our Ninja Foodi smoothie & bowl blender, and they are MUCH better than the sip lids (i.e. travel lids) that come with the blender (official name “Ninja Foodi Smoothie Maker & Nutrient Extractor”, which is, yes, a mouthful).

If you can’t have potatoes we have a great potato substitute for you! What if we told you that this potato substitute was so great that you can mash it, bake it, put it in soups or stews, and that you can even make fries with it? But wait, there’s more! (Shades of Ron Popeil!) What if we told you that you can purchase it precooked and in shelf-stable cans?! (We told you there was more!) Yes, it’s yuca! Yes, it’s cassava! It’s two, two, two names for one incredible potato substitute! (In case you weren’t aware, yuca and cassava are different names for the same root vegetable.)

Korean fried chicken is all the rage right now, so we figured why not vegan Korean fried chicken! So putting on our recipe thinking caps, we came up with a recipe for gluten-free vegan Korean fried chicken that we think you are going to love (we know that we do)!

Vegan gyro recipes are often complicated, or have a ton of ingredients, or both. However our gluten-free vegan gyro recipe is easy, straight-forward, and other than the herbs and spices uses only a few ingredients, all of which you’re likely to already have in your kitchen or pantry! Best of all, these vegan gyros are DELICIOUS and satisfying!

Our gluten-free vegan Philly cheesesteak recipe is the best vegan Philly cheesesteak recipe we’ve had! So if you have a hankering for a vegan Philly cheesesteak, we guarantee that you’ll love our vegan Philly cheesesteak recipe! It’s just amazing, it’s also the most authentic tasting vegan Philly cheesesteak we’ve ever had, and it’s easy to make at home!

We loved the original Primal Kitchen Buffalo sauce, and our copycat Primal Kitchen vegan buffalo sauce (“vegan wing sauce” for short) looks and tastes just like the original! (Which they call their “No-Dairy Buffalo sauce”.) Why do we say “the original” Primal Kitchen sauce? If you think that your last bottle of Primal Kitchen Buffalo sauce didn’t taste quite the same, there’s a reason for that, which we explain below. But our copycat Primal Kitchen Buffalo sauce follows the original recipe that you fell in love with. Not only that, but because you’re making it yourself at home, you can make it less spicy, or even hotter and more spicy if you like! Serve this with our 1 Ingredient, 3 Step Vegan Wings for a real treat!

This is absolutely the best gluten-free vegan wings recipe! (It’s kind of hard for us to say “vegan chicken wings”, so we won’t, except right here to say that it’s hard to say.) Our vegan wing recipe has got just one ingredient, you make it in three easy steps, and the texture is fantastic! Dip them (or slather them) in our Copycat Primal Kitchen Buffalo Sauce!

If you are looking for a delicious, easy recipe for gluten-free, vegan, raw cinnamon rolls, you’ve found it! Now, before we go any further, in case you haven’t had raw cinnamon rolls we want to make sure that you know that raw cinnamon rolls are nothing like the bready, carby things that you get at Cinnabon, overloaded with processed flour and white sugar. Raw cinnamon rolls have a texture sort of like firm raw cookie dough, and they are packed with bursting cinnamon flavor, and are sweetened naturally. And they are as healthful as they are delicious! If this sound good to you, read on! Plus you can get nearly all of the ingredients in this recipe at Costco (and we do)!

Gluten-free vegan beef strips, also called vegan beef tips and vegan beef tenders, are really hard to find, so make your own! The problem is that all of the vegan beef tips out there (such as Gardein) are like the opposite of gluten-free; they’re glutenful, being made, most often, with vital wheat gluten. But our vegan beef tips (tenders, strips, whatever you want to call them) are not only gluten-free, but they are super tender, super tasty, and super clean! In fact, they have just three ingredients!

It’s pumpkin spice latte (PSL) time, which means that it’s also PSC (pumpkin spice cookies) time! Our pumpkin spice cookie recipe is easy, fast, healthful, and, best of all, delicious! And of course our pumpkin spice cookies are vegan and gluten-free. These cookies have simple, clean ingredients, and they are actually as good for you as they are tasty! In fact, you can even use them as breakfast cookies or a quick pick-me up in the afternoon! Pack them in your kids’ lunches, or bring a plate to the office and watch them disappear!

Our tofu bulgogi recipe is a vegan take on a traditional Korean beef barbecue recipe. “Bulgogi” literally translates to “fire meat” (so we guess that this is “fire tofu”), and it is probably called such because the traditional marinade includes chili, ginger, garlic, onion, and spring onion. But our version isn’t really fire hot, although it is flavorful! Traditional bulgogi marinade also includes about a half a fresh pear, either finely chopped or grated.

When it comes to tofu dishes that are easy to make, it doesn’t get much easier than our super-easy, super-yummy, and super versatile oven-roasted tofu planks recipe. Easy tofu dishes don’t have to be bland or soggy, and our oven-roasted tofu planks are neither. Dress them up or serve them ‘plain’, serve them whole or cube them up, or put them on a sandwich! See? We told you that they’re versatile!
