Why People Are Skinny Fat (and How to Fix It)
Are you skinny fat? Here are the three things you must do to fix it . . .
Read MoreI’ve rounded up 15 of the best gluten free recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert.
Oh, and they’re simple, healthy and incredibly tasty to boot. You’re welcome!
If you can’t have gluten, there are a ton of breakfast recipes that you can enjoy – like eggs, smoothies, oatmeal, and yogurt.
But every now and then, it’s nice to have something a little different. Try mixing up your morning routine with one of these incredibly tasty gluten free breakfast ideas.
These savory crepes from Naturally Ella are pretty light so you can really taste the filling. Instead of traditional wheat flour, this recipe uses an oat flour, which you can buy or even whip up yourself in a food processor or high-speed blender.
We already know that eggs are a nutritional powerhouse, but have you checked out goat cheese?
Well, goat cheese is low in calories, fat, sodium, and cholesterol, yet has more vitamin D, vitamin K, thiamine, and niacin that cows cheese.
Ingredients
Crepes (makes 8 to 10)
Filling (enough for 2 crepes)
Directions
This breakfast bowl from A House in the Hills is one way to start off the day on the right nutritional foot.
Coconut is high in vitamins C, E, B1, B3, B5, and B6, and minerals like iron, selenium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorous.
Of course, quinoa is one of the most protein rich carbs around, while goji berries are a fiber rich superfood with all the essential amino acids. And don’t forget that the mighty chia seed is a super source of omega 3 fatty acids.
Ingredients (serves 2)
Directions
These traditional North Indian breakfast pancakes by Vegan Richa are savory, spicy, and filling.
It’s so tasty thanks to an array of beneficial spices.
And, chickpea flour has more protein than wheat flour and contains unsaturated fats.
I like to top mine with sautéed veggies and sliced avocado – and it honestly keeps me full right through to lunch.
Ingredients (makes 2)
Directions
Swapping the gluten containing grains bulgur or couscous for quinoa in this recipe from The Kitchn is a simple way to make this traditional Lebanese dish perfect for those who can’t have gluten.
The feta cheese is lower in fat and calories than many other dairy cheeses, yet you’ll still be getting some calcium and protein.
If you need a little something extra to fill you up, try adding a poached egg on top. It’s probably not very Lebanese but it is protein rich, healthy and satisfying.
Ingredients (serves 8 to 10)
Directions
Chicken salads don’t get any healthier than this recipe by Katie, also known as Wellness Mama.
Not only is it gluten free, but it’s low carb, packed with nutrients and doesn’t use the high fat mayonnaise found in most chicken salads. But don’t worry – it’s not dry. Katie uses probiotic rich yogurt in place of mayo for a tangy, creamy taste.
Probiotics are those friendly bacteria that help with gut health and immunity.
Ingredients (serves 4 to 6)
Directions
I know what you’re thinking, a second lunch time salad recipe. Boring!
But this salad from Avocado Pesto is so good. It’s light yet filling. The spices on the salmon and the creamy, herby dressing pack a mean flavor punch.
Don’t forget that salmon is one of the healthiest foods around – a rich source of protein, healthy fats, vitamin B12, vitamin D, and selenium.
The fresh romaine and onions and the hearty black beans all help with satiety. Plus, it can be whipped up in a few minutes. I promise, you won’t be disappointed.
Ingredients (serves 4)
For the dressing
Directions
‘Sweet, rather spicy and very comforting’ is how New York Times Bestselling author Elana at Elana’s Pantry described her soup recipe.
Sounds good right? Well, it tastes pretty darn good too, and is loaded with health benefits.
Crimini mushrooms are full of selenium, copper, potassium, phosphorus, and zinc, as well as antioxidants..
Ingredients
Directions
The name might not be too appealing, but it pretty much sums up how to cook this quick and easy dinner, which has a serious Mediterranean vibe going on.
Baking the fish in a foil bag means you cut down on oils without ending up with a meal and the flavors marinade really well, so it’s super tasty.
If you want to be really good, then I recommend switching the potatoes for sweet potatoes.
Ingredients (serves 1)
Directions
Not just gluten free, this dinner is paleo friendly too.
While I’m not always a huge lover of zucchini noodles, sometimes they work – and this dish by Against All Grain is one of those times.
If you’ve been living under a rock for the last few years and don’t know about zucchini noodles, they’re made by shredding zucchini with either a spiralizer or julienne peeler.
Zucchini has a good amount of potassium.
If you prefer, you can sub the ground beef for a leaner option of ground chicken or turkey, similar to one of my favorite lunch recipes.
Ingredients (serves 6 to 8)
Directions
If you make these particular tenders by Gimme Some Oven, then you can choose high quality chicken for a lean protein hit, as well as doses of vitamin A for healthy eyes, and the B vitamins needed for good skin and a well-functioning nervous system.
Ingredients (serves 4 to 6)
Directions
This vegan, gluten free curry by Minimalist Baker is loaded with veggies in a sweet but spicy coconut milk. Serve it with brown rice, wild rice or quinoa.
All in all, a pretty healthy filling meal, thrown together in no time.
Ingredients (serves 4)
Directions
Now, I know some chili lovers won’t think this recipe by Nutritionist in the Kitch is a real chili without the beans, but you might just be surprised.
Veggies can swap the turkey for another protein source like beans or even the meaty texture of portobello mushrooms. It’s also topped with my favorite calcium rich Greek yogurt – something I didn’t expect to be such an amazing sour cream substitute.
Ingredients (serves 5)
Directions
I’m not a big fan of fruit for dessert but I’ll make an exception for this recipe from Oh She Glows. It’s also a great snack – especially if you want to liven up some basic fruit.
Ingredients (makes 1.5 to 2 cups)
Directions
The last time I featured a chia pudding it was for breakfast, but the great thing about these tasty treats is that, by switching up a few ingredients, they can make awesome, healthy desserts too.
This chai spiced recipe by Blissful Basil is nice and sweet for dessert but I like to make it as a snack now and then.
Ingredients (serves 2)
Directions
Lastly, here’s one for the savory snack lovers.
Avocado Pesto’s bean and kale dip recipe contains its fair share of nutrient rich ingredients.
Serve this with sticks of cucumber, known to boost energy and fight cravings. And, it can be made in two minutes flat.

"Dieting" doesn't have to suck. You CAN eat foods you like and have the body you want!
Click Here to Learn HowWhat if I told you that just about everything magazines and trainers “teach” you about dieting is wrong?
What if you could build muscle and lose fat eating “naughty” foods every week?
What if you didn’t have to suffer through low-carb dieting to get lean? In fact, what if you could eat all the carbs you wanted?
And what if you didn’t have to gorge yourself just to gain muscle and didn’t have to put on pounds and pounds of ugly fat, either?
In short, what if I told you that proper dieting--whether you want to maximize fat loss or muscle growth--is much simpler and more enjoyable than you’ve been led to believe?
Imagine eating delicious, filling meals every day...never feeling starved or stuffed...having great energy levels and workouts...and watching your body respond exactly as you desire, dropping fat or adding muscle each and every week.
And imagine finally understanding how proper dieting really works, never again falling for the BS, tricks, and gimmicks pushed by “gurus” and other shysters.
Well, I have good news.
All these “fantasies” can be a reality...if you know how to do a handful of “little” things correctly.
You see, when you know how to diet properly--and this doesn’t mean learning to eat boiled chicken and raw broccoli six times per day--getting lean and muscular becomes simple, convenient, and dare I say...enjoyable.
And this book will show you the way.

Great ingredients aren't enough to make a great product—you also need correct doses.
That’s why we use the exact doses of every ingredient that have safely produced the desired benefits in peer-reviewed studies.
Where your supplements are made matters, because rules and regulations regarding quality and purity differ from country to country.
And if you want to ensure the supplements you’re swallowing every day are safe and effective, you want products produced in the USA.
That’s why all of our supplements are made in America in NSF-certified and FDA-inspected facilities that operate in accordance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) regulations.
We pay a premium to work with the best manufacturers in the country, but it’s the only way we can also produce the best all-natural sports supplements.
Did you know that studies have shown that many supplements contain dangerously high levels of toxins like lead, arsenic, and cadmium?
Not ours.
Every ingredient of every supplement we produce is tested for heavy metals, microbes, allergens, and other contaminants to ensure they meet the strict purity standards set by the FDA.
While artificial sweeteners may not be as dangerous as some people claim, studies suggest that regular consumption of these chemicals may indeed be harmful to our health and that more research is needed.
That’s why all of our supplements are naturally sweetened and flavored and contain no artificial food dyes, fillers, or other unnecessary junk.
Unlike some supplement companies, we don’t sell dubious white labeled or off-the-shelf formulations.
Instead, our custom and unique formulations are the result of extensive reviews of the scientific literature to discover the most effective ingredients for each.
