These recipes are what our family cooks when we don’t have time or energy to make fancier options. The recipes below are all super easy and most can be made in under 30 mins in one stovepot, simply be dumped into a crockpot for part of the day, or dumped into a baking dish for a up to an hour. You can find some store bought meal options at the end of this post as well; the rest of the recipes are homemade. Hope the list gives you some ideas for the next time you need a quick easy allergy friendly meal.
HomeMade Meal Ideas:
I love mac n’ cheese. It is filling, gooey, and has a consistent flavor and texture. Since being dairy free, I wanted to find something that I enjoyed just as much as mac n’ cheese, but was dairy free. Since I dislike many of the non dairy cheese options, I created this recipe in hopes it would fill my craving for mac n’ cheese. It was a success. I now make this anytime I crave Mac n’ Cheese. This recipe makes about 4 servings. Takes 15-20 mins to make.
This recipe is a one pot recipe that can be made quickly. Not to mention it is super hearty. Enjoy a night of less dishes, cooking time, and yummy food.
This one is simple and delicious! Just bake up some chicken thighs and serve with a side of rice! The key to perfect baked chicken is the seasonings & oven temperature. See recipe for the details!
4. Buttery Pan-Fried Chicken w/ Seasoned Rice
Such an easy recipe and very filling! I use this recipe a lot for lunch and when I am on the go. Highly recommend!
This crockpot pulled pork is my favorite of all time and it is top 8 allergen free! It is so juicy, tender, and falls right off the bone and all you have to do is dump all the ingredients together!
This is my favorite lunch to eat! I make one of these at least once a week. What makes it different from other recipes is the bread and vegan Mayo that I use. Never ever have I had a better BLT!
7. Baked Nachos
These nachos are top 8 free and can be made legume and corn free depending on the toppings you choose to use! But as always, please double check ingredients of things you buy to make sure it’s safe for your family.
8. Loose Tacos
Make some taco meat, grab some lettuce/tomato/guac, and toss on top of Frito chips or other tortilla chips with some melted non-dairy cheese. So easy and delicious.
9. Taco Soup
My husband loves making this recipe for our family. It’s yummy and is an easy crockpot recipe! Serves about 8 servings.
10. Split Pea Soup
Another quick crockpot recipe! I love this recipe. My grandpa taught me how to make it and I have added some things to my preference. Makes about 8-10 servings.
This is a super easy soup to make! Perfect for the days when someone is feeling sick. My grandma made the best chicken noodle soup growing up. It took me a while to re-create it, but it was worth the extra time and effort. Hope you like it. Serves 10-12 large servings.
Simple ingredients, strong flavor, creamy texture, easy to make, & quick to bake! What gets better than that? You should try this recipe if you want an easy casserole for your family.
My hubby originally made this recipe while we were dating. It was really good then & with a few dietary adjustments, its still just as yummy now too! Makes 10-12 servings.
I love that the ingredients in this recipe just need to be mixed together and baked. Means for me that it’s super easy to throw into the oven for a yummy breakfast, brunch, or dessert!
This recipe is perfect for a relaxed Saturday with some sausage. Just dump your ingredients together, mix, and put in a waffle iron.
This recipe is another quick one and are the best biscuits I have had: fluffy, flaky, buttery. Takes just 10 mins prep time, and 15 mins bake time.
17. BBQ Ribs
This recipe is so easy! My husband loves making it when we don’t have time for anything else. Just season some ribs and bake! Easy!
Store-Bought Ideas:
18. Costco or Applegate Hot dogs and Chips
Simple, easy, yummy. On the Grill or in the oven oven, till hot dogs are lightly browned. Serve with kettle chips.
19. Perdue Chicken Nuggets and Fries (contains 🌽)
These store bought nuggets & waffle cut fries do contain corn, so see my homemade recipe if you need corn free, but they are delicious! You can serve with a side of allergy friendly fries!
20. Simple Truth Tater Tots & Chicken Wings
Super easy! Just pop in the oven for 40 or so minutes and serve with desired condiments and veggies.
