Gluten-free vegan dinners made with peanuts

These twelve gluten-free dinners lean on peanuts for richness and protein, from the African Tomato Peanut Stew with Chickpeas to the West African Peanut & Sweet Potato Stew. Quicker options like the 20-minute Peanut Tempeh Lettuce Cups and Peanut Noodle Bowl fit busy nights, while the Spicy Peanut Sweet Potato Bowl brings extra heartiness with rice and sweet potato. Most meals come together in 20 to 40 minutes.
