gluten free vegan food easy to prepare?

Ok, day 12 of this vegan, gluten free diet and I am hungry! I have been having alot of rice and vegetables and fruit. What else can I have? I have been a vegetarian for 13 years and thought it was hard to find stuff to eat that way, now with no dairy or gluten I am having a very very tough time finding things to eat, though I do feel better. Any suggestions?

Answer by Matthew P
I was not aware that being a vegan meant swearing off gluten. Any word on this?

But in my experience, check out www.ethicalplanet.com for really great gluten free foods.

I’m assuming your alergic to gluten, that would be the only reason to avoid eating wheat protein. You can eat, rhy, barley, oats, rice, just stay away from wheat. Use soy products in place of dairy.

Beans are loaded with fiber and gluten free. They certainly fill you up. Have you tried quinoa? They even make a quinoa pasta.

Please ignore Renee’s comment that you can eat Rye, barley, etc. I am assuming that you have a gluten intolerance; gluten is present in wheat, rye, barley, and triticale. In addition to rice, you may want to try adding in polenta, grits, and potatoes to your diet. You should also increase you caloric intake. If you are hungry for more than 30 minutes take it as a sign you need to eat. You can also try adding in more beans and legume based products to increase your protein intake (e.g. hummus). Below are a couple of links to some celiac (aka gluten free diets to treat the intolerance/allergy) websites that have recipes and forums where you may be able to find more advice.
