Summer is over so our food cravings change along with the season. These 26 Easy Fall Recipes bring comfort and warmth to the cooler crisp temperatures of the season. They’re so tasty you won’t notice they’re gluten free.
Fall Recipes – Main Courses
Fall Main Courses are more filling and heavier than the light dinners of summer. Here’s some recipes that will stick to your ribs.
Mississippi Pot Roast
The only thing better than a good pot roast is a great pot roast. This pot roast recipe is the one I make most often. The broth the roast makes is so good that I freeze it and use it for beef soup. This roast is perfect for both the Slow Cooker or the Instant Pot

Gluten Free Meatloaf
Sometimes meatloaf gets made fun of. I don’t know why. It could be because those making fun of it haven’t had a meatloaf they liked. For this recipe I like using the heels from a loaf of gluten free bread. They work just as well as traditional breadcrumbs to keep the meatloaf tender.

Shepherd’s Pie
Shepherd’s Pie is a casserole full of comfort. A meaty filling with vegetables and herbs gets topped with creamy mashed potatoes. It’s not traditional but I love adding shredded cheese to the top and melting it on top of the potatoes to give it an extra something.
Baked Meatballs
No fried meatballs here. These gluten free meatballs are baked which makes for a clean stove top. These tasty meatballs are great with or without sauce so eat up.

Gluten Free Parmesan Crusted Oven Baked Pork Chops

Butternut Squash Soup
Butternut Squash screams fall, but this puréed soup is great when you want a healthy recipe that’s creamy and delicious. I use an immersion blender to make quick work of blending it up. Then it gets finished off with a little bit of half and half for richness.

Easy Chicken Soup
And Old Fashioned, Classic favorite that has the ability to heal us mentally and physically. It also usually contains noodles. Are you gluten free and missing noodles? I understand, but I want you to know, this soup will help your noodle missing self feel better.
The key to this recipe being a winner is that doesn’t need noodles as a filler. It’s full of shredded chicken, fresh vegetables and herbs. If those things don’t make you feel better, think of how many calories you’re saving by not eating the noodles!

You don’t need a visit to Olive Garden for this soup. It’s easy to make your own copycat version at home that’s better than the restaurant’s. This recipe is definitely heartier and more flavorful than the one I get at Olive Garden.
Weight Watchers Cabbage Soup
This cabbage soup has been around FOREVER! It goes by other names like Zero Points Weight Watchers Soup, WW Cabbage Soup, Wonder Soup, One Week Cabbage Soup, and more.
If any of those names make you turn your nose up, stop it. The is low calorie, low carb and full of flavor. It’s really versatile and you can swap out the vegetables that you don’t like for ones that you do.
In addition to ingredient swaps in this gluten free soup recipe, I also have easy to follow directions for making it on the stove, Instant Pot, or Slow Cooker.
