Looking for quick and easy gluten free dinner recipes to make for tonight? Try these recipes. Full of flavour and all gluten free, this round up of recipes will help you get dinner on the table ASAP!
Weeknight dinners can really sneak up on us sometimes. Between after school activities and running errands, it feels like in a blink of an eye, it’s dinner time! With busy weeknights like these, I always have a running list of quick dinners that I can throw together.
Here are 50 of my favourite gluten free dinners recipes that take 30 minutes or less to put together. They are perfect for someone who has gluten intolerance and you’ll find some vegan and dairy-free recipes too.
A trick I have when I’m in a rush is to use quick cooking proteins such as salmon or shrimp. When that’s not possible and I only have chicken on hand, I cut them up into small bite sized pieces so the cook time goes down. You’ll see down below how to make your dinners quickly with these tips.
We also have a couple of Instant Pot recipes as well where you can just toss all your ingredients in, press a button, and have dinner ready in a jiffy. But not to worry, if you don’t have a pressure cooker, there are plenty of other gluten-free recipes in this list of gluten free dinner recipes to choose from.
Even if you’re not on gluten-free diets, these dinners will impress. They’re family friendly, dinner party friendly, and most importantly, they’re fast. Also, they are loaded with veggies such as cauliflower rice, red onions, bell pepper, fresh herbs and the list goes on and on.
Are These Dinners Meal Prep Friendly?
These gluten-free dinner recipes are all meal prep friendly and they all have amazing flavor! Each post will have a section where it shares with you how to meal prep the recipe. If there isn’t, let me know in the comments and I’ll update that! In general, most of these recipes can be meal prepped for up to 4-5 days.
