Lunch Ideas for Kids with Nut Allergies

All three of my kiddos have nut allergies. They are allergic to both peanuts and tree nuts, so we avoid anything with any mention of nuts ("contains nuts", "may contain nuts",  "manufactured in a plant with nuts", etc.)

This can make packing lunch a challenge. Unlike me though, they CAN eat gluten.  

So here are some simple school lunch ideas that I use for my nut allergy kids....

(These items are NOT all gluten free)

Ham or turkey sandwich (we love Boars Head!) 

Jelly biscuit

Blueberry muffins 

(Here's a simple healthy recipe http://glutenfreesimplygood.blogspot.com/2015/02/gluten-free-blueberry-muffins.html or you can grab the Udi's Blueberry Muffins, which are quick and yummy too!)

Carrot slices

Strawberries

Sliced grapes

Cheese sticks
Celery sticks
Apples

Applesauce (my kids LOVE strawberry applesauce!)
Original Cheerios

Snack Pack Chocolate Pudding or Vanilla Pudding 

Honey Maid graham snacks

Goldfish brand crackers

Oreos

Betty Crocker gummy snacks
Smartfoods White Cheddar Popcorn
Gogurt yogurt

(Always remember to double check labels too, as ingredients can change)
