10 Peanut-Free Packaged Snacks for School Lunches
Anyone with a child in school knows the struggle of packing healthy snacks for their kids. Today, I’m sharing a peanut-free list of safe (pre-packaged) snacks to add to your child’s lunch.
Packing Safe Lunches Can Be Difficult When Food Allergies Are Involved
As a mother of a child with life-threatening food allergies, it warms my heart to have a mom go the extra mile and call me to ask what snacks would be safe to share. I created this peanut-free list to have on hand and to help other parents looking for safe, peanut-free snack options to include in school lunches.
