Don’t let gluten sensitivities get in the way of enjoying each and every morsel of your holiday feasts. From the more traditional dishes like turkey and stuffing to vegan whole-roasted cauliflower and antipasto skewers, here are some of the tastiest gluten-free recipes to serve during the holiday season.
Tuscan Turkey Roulade
Much like porchetta, this elegant turkey roulade is seasoned with bold herb and garlic flavours. Just be sure to purchase your spices from brands that guarantee a gluten-free environment, because cross-contamination can occur, and avoid those bulk bins!
Whole-Roasted Cauliflower with Hazelnut, Orange, and Saffron
If you need a vegan and gluten-free main for your holiday feast, look no further than this irresistible whole-roasted cauliflower. Seasoned with orange, saffron and coconut milk, even the non-vegans at the dinner table will want a serving.
Gluten-Free Eggplant Parmesan
Give an Italian classic a gluten-free makeover by using almond meal in place of breadcrumbs. Also, baking the eggplant slices instead of frying them makes cleanup a breeze.
Cranberry-Pecan Wild Rice Stuffing
Going gluten-free doesn’t mean you have to give up all of the scrumptious stuffing this holiday season. This thyme-scented wild rice side has dried apricots and cranberries folded in for sweetness, and toasted pecans for some crunch.
Savoury Quinoa Stuffing with Vegan Gravy
Everyone at your holiday table will be able to savour this delicious stuffing made with quinoa. To ensure that it’s completely gluten-free, follow the recipe tips carefully.
Turkey Quinoa Skewers
Just because this is a healthy appetizer option doesn’t mean that it’s flavourless. The meatballs are packed with protein-rich quinoa and turkey, and topped with a tangy, festive cranberry sauce.
Vegan Antipasto Skewers
Beautiful plant-based antipasto skewers are about to become a go-to appetizer for holiday entertaining this year. They’re a colourful, delicious, and gluten-free option for your festive menu.

Gluten-Free, Vegan Cranberry-Almond Tartlets
These vegan, gluten-free tartlets are the perfect bite following a large holiday feast. And while you should serve them the same day they’re baked, you can get a head start by making the crusts ahead of time and freezing them.
