This is a gluten-free meal plan built around naturally gluten-free foods first — rice, quinoa, certified-GF oats, corn, all unprocessed proteins, all produce, beans, nuts, seeds, dairy — with certified-GF bread and pasta showing up only when needed. The framing comes from the Celiac Disease Foundation's safe-food framework [1] and the FDA's gluten-free labeling rule (under 20 ppm) [2]. The plan keeps things at 2,000 kcal/day across 4 meals, 7 days, 26 distinct meals. Cross-contamination is the biggest invisible risk in a gluten-free kitchen — the practical tips at the end cover how to manage shared toasters, cutting boards, and pasta water. Day 1 starts on Sunday because Sundays anchor the prep.

Most of the week’s cooking happens on Sunday. Doing the prep up-front means weekday meals come together in 10 minutes or less.
After 7 days you'll have a clean working repertoire and a better sense of which packaged foods you can trust. The hardest part of gluten-free isn't the food itself — it's the cross-contamination vigilance and the social mechanics of eating out. The 7-day plan handles the first; you handle the second.
