choose other foods higher in protein. beans/legumes, whole (gluten-free) grains, soy (in moderation), dairy (if you can have it), eggs, nuts/seeds, plenty of whole vegetables. with that, and eating meat once or twice a day, you don't need supplements to get to 100-120g of protein a day.

there are gluten free protein powders out there aplenty. do you have other restrictions besides gluten?

I have seen a rice whey powder in Raleys. Know nothing about its protein content. Perhaps make smoothies with almond or hemp milk, bananas, etc. etc.

Quinoa has a lot more protein in it than many other grains. How about fish? Tuna on gluten-free rice crackers?

I bought some rice protein powder but haven't used it yet because like you, I can't have eggs or dairy and those are two foods it is commonly put in.

You might try chia seeds. Mix them with water to a gel, let sit overnight and eat a few spoonfuls. They really keep me going.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
