    I just joined this group today and am so thankful for all the delicious sounding recipes! I'm not vegan (yet), but recently turned vegetarian and have been gluten-free for about a year. I'll report back on any recipes I try! :)

    Is it true that the issue with oats and gluten is just cross-contamination? I'm not gluten free, but I try to limit my gluten intake. I have this muffin recipe that I love. I made a dozen every Sunday, and then my husband and I eat one for breakfast every day.

    2 cups rolled oats
    2 cups unsweetened coconut milk (or other milk)
    1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
    1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
    1/2 tsp vanilla

    You can of course do raisins or nuts instead of chocolate chips, but I like my little bit of chocolate! I just mix everything together, cooking spray a cupcake pan, fill, and bake for 30 or so minutes at 350 degrees F.

    P.S. I'd love friend adds, particularly if you have a calorie goal of 1650-1800. I'd like to see how I can be less gluten-ous!

    Yes, oats are naturally gluten-free but they can become contaminated on the processing equipment. At least that is my understanding. Trader Joe's sells gluten-free oats! But I often just eat regular ones because my sensitivity is not extreme.

    I made this dish for Christmas dinner and it was well-received by carnivores in attendance. I personally loved it. It's from an old Vegetarian Times cookbook I use often for family get-togethers. I omitted the salt and cut back the oil and I'm glad I did; no one noticed. It's quite low-calorie if you're careful with the olive oil and is pretty filling. I'll definitely make this again.

    Green Beans with Mushrooms Marsala (p. 133, Vegetarian Times 1998 "Complete Thanksgiving Cookbook" Harvest of Side Dishes) - Serves 6 1 pound fresh green beans, ends trimmed
    1 tbsp olive oil (I used 1 tsp)
    1 clove minced garlic (I used jar minced garlic, @ 3 cloves worth)
    1 pound white mushrooms (could use brown mushrooms) sliced 1/8-in thick
    1 tsp salt (I used no salt)
    1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
    1/4 cup sweet Marsala wine (or sherry or cheap white wine)
    1/4 to 1/2 cup slivered raw almonds (optional)

    Steam green beans (I steam my veggies in a rice cooker.) till crisp-tender.
    While beans are steaming, heat oil in skillet and add garlic, stirring till garlic is cooked through but not brown. Add mushrooms, stirring till mushrooms begin to brown, @ 7 minutes. Add seasonings and wine (or sherry); stir. Continue cooking till alcohol evaporates, @ 2 minutes.
    Place steamed beans in a serving bowl (or serving plate). Pour mushroom mixture over the beans. Sprinkle slivered almonds on top. Serve immediately.

    Question regarding gluten free oats. So regular oats have no gluten but they may have touched other gluten grains?

    Yummly is a great app to find recipes catered to your preferences. I'm lactose intolerant rather than vegan, but tend to eat a lot of vegan foods due to 'better safe than sorry.' Just wanted to share - I've come across some amazing recipes on there that make cooking gdf/gvx simple!
