Foods such as wheat, rye, couscous, and semolina contain gluten, which can be harmful for those with illnesses such as celiac disease. But what we eat isn’t only about our health (though eating vegan provides massive health benefits and protects against numerous diseases)—it’s also about sparing cows, chickens, pigs, and other gentle, intelligent animals from suffering.
Ready to dig in? We’ve compiled this list of must-try gluten-free vegan recipes that are as gentle on animals as they are on our digestive systems.

Being Vegan Is Better for Animals and Your Health
Choosing vegan gluten-free meals is one simple way to reduce suffering. Animals used for meat, dairy, and eggs endure miserable lives—confined in filthy sheds, denied everything that matters to them, and then shipped to the slaughterhouse in noisy, crowded trucks.
Going vegan protects your own health, too! Healthy vegan foods help prevent some of our country’s biggest killers, including heart disease, some cancers, and strokes.
These delicious recipes prove you can skip the cruelty and keep the flavor. Before running to the store to get all the ingredients, check out this guide to soy- and gluten-free vegan meat options.
