52+ Gluten Free Vegetarian Recipes for Meatless Monday

Dinner just got a whole lot easier with this collection of 52+ Gluten Free Vegetarian Recipes for Meatless Monday-one for every week of the year, plus more!

No matter whether you’re already following a vegan, or vegetarian diet, or you’re a flexitarian, or omnivore looking to add more plant based recipes to your diet, whatever healthy vegetarian recipes you choose to make, not only should they nourish your body, but they should also taste delicious too!

Luckily, for all of us, I asked my dietitian nutritionist and healthy food blogger friends & colleagues to share their favorite “tried and true” healthy gluten free vegetarian recipes with me, so I could share them with YOU!

Not only will you love the health benefits of these delicious plant based recipes, but also the cost savings of {cutting back on meat} as well. Enjoy!

Nutrition Notes: All recipes are naturally gluten-free unless otherwise noted, then I have added gluten-free substitutions. Many recipes are vegan, or can easily be made vegan by omitting dairy/honey/etc., and several recipes are grain-free as well.

For added protein and fiber in pasta dishes, try some of my favorite garbanzo, bean, or lentil based pastas such as Banza, Tolerant Foods, and Explore Asian. Capello’s Almond Flour Pasta is a delicious grain-free pasta, or have fun experimenting with veggie noodles, or “zoodles” for lower carb/lower calorie options.

THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL MY TALENTED & INSPIRATIONAL RECIPE & PHOTO CONTRIBUTORS WHO HELP ME SPREAD THE WORD THAT HEALTHY IS DELICIOUS!

Serving Suggestions: One of the great things about meatless/vegetarian recipes is that a lot of these dishes make delicious “one bowl”, “one pot”, or “one pan” meals. Hello, less dishes to wash!! But, if you would like to add a side dish, many of these recipes pair up deliciously w/ a side salad, fresh fruit, and perhaps some crusty bread, or my “Best Ever” Rolls {Pao de Quejo}.

I’d love hearing from you, so leave a comment, share a tip, or ask a question! And, if you think your friends would enjoy this post, I’d truly appreciate you sharing it with them too!
