a day in the life of a gluten-free vegetarian

a friend of mine requested that i post what i eat since she was wondering what i was subsisting upon after announcing i was "going gluten-free" about a month ago.  since i was already a vegetarian, i was used to cooking lots and lots of veggies, but going gluten-free took that to a whole new level!

breakfast - almond meal hot cereal with ground flaxseeds (prepared with almond milk) and topped with cherries and peanut butter

lunch - 1/2 avocado topped with goat cheese, sauteed onions and tomatoes


snack - carrots "chips" (i.e. carrots sauteed briefly with olive oil and curry) and hummus


dinner - eggplant lasagna (all veggies -- no gluten-free pasta here!) and a glass of red wine : )


after dinner - decaf tea with half and half

so, that's what a day of meals looks like for a gluten-free vegetarian : ) yummy!

  2. Wow, it is quite a big plunge to be vegetarian and gluten free. I've heard lots of my friends talk about the health benefits of going gluten free, but I wonder...do you feel more energetic? If I could get some more "get-up-and-go" in my life, I would consider a gluten-free diet.
