How do you plan for a month's gluten-free meal meals at sea?

To make more interesting, the last big tipoff to our supplies, was in Panama City, Panama.  That was over a month ago.

We added a few sundries from Galapagos' limited selection 2 weeks ago - mostly produce... carrots, cabbage, onions, a few potatoes, apples pears and eggs.  The eggs in particular were of dubious freshness. Quinoa was inexpensive; a nice protein addition for the passage ahead with limited freezer space for meat.

For the culinary curious or those provisioning, especially for a gluten-free diet, here is our 1st 2 weeks meals

After 2 weeks passage, with another 2 weeks or so to go, there's still meat in the freezer (though we hope to catch some fish, too), 1/3 head of cabbage, 2 carrots, 7 onions, 3 heads of garlic, 1 casaba root, 1 green tomato and enough nonperishables to last at least another 3 months if needed.

"Don't think we're going to lose any weight on this passage" Wayne observed, eating stroganoff.

Probably not.  Looking forward to hiking it off and eating lighter once we hit landfall and can re supply with fresh fruit and veg.

What would you do if you had to plan for a month's meals with no new perishables?
