Easy Gluten-Free Freezer Breakfast Sandwiches (Vegan)
Table of contents
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. And Meal prepping is key for our dietary restrictions; it's a big help at breakfast and lunch to have items ready to grab and go.
It can be hard finding good food on the go that’s plant-based and gluten-free. And you can forget about adding on nut-free (we have those allergies too), soy-free and dairy-free restrictions.
I literally have been served a handful of rice noodles and a piece (as in one) of bok choy, because people couldn't figure out what to serve me. Luckily, a friend came to the rescue with a bag of almonds. My lesson, was learned be prepared.

Three ingredients is all you need to save loads of time.
