Hello all,

I am doing a lunch buffet next week and need 10 vegan options and 5 gluten free options.  Anybody have any great recipes they'd like to share with me?

Thanks!

Wow that's a huge task.   The best recipes are the ones you know.   Follow the Vegan rules, and create what you know from that.  Most Vegan dishes are gluten free, because you can't use bread.

Ideas

Stuffed Peppers with rice and roasted veg.

Portabella mushroom have endless possibilities.

Oil based Salads

straw. spinach

Greek,   No fetta

Sandwiches    (bread made with no eggs)  some wraps and some rice bread work.

Stirfry's with rice noodles.  or rice.   (watch your sauce.)

Hope this help,   I've never had to provide that much variety, good luck.

If it has egg in it then it be Brioche (Let them eat cake) surely not proper bread. ??

You clearly be a bit posh in your parts ;-)

If you can't be using flour to make pastry cases and fancy breads etc then think about using veg - stuffed tomatoes, mini peppers / capsicums, drums of cucumber

A good vegan AND gluten free alternative be sushi with marinated tofu and mushrooms and avocado.

If you overcook quinoa it gets quite sticky and you can make falafel sized savoury balls with finely chopped herbs, garlic, chillies and ginger

You can also make baby cannelloni out of long slices of courgettes / zucchini or aubergines / eggplant

I'd have GF & Vegan so you've only got regular and then optional dish.

Make sure if your optional entree is on the buffet you bring extra ( in my experience a lot extra) for meateaters will go for the vegan/GF option too.....

Eggplant parm (without breading or with GF panko)

Veg stack

Really love JTC's quinoa idea, and stuffed zucchini too....
