moomin 0 Posted May 3, 2018 Hi there, at most day cares in Australia, kids are not allowed to bring nuts or eggs. Can I please have some suggestions of what I can pack aside from meat leftovers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
laura_juggles 507 Posted May 3, 2018 Cut up compliant hot dogs/sausages, meatballs, burger patties, chicken tenders/nuggets Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
berry straw 20 Posted May 4, 2018 Invest in a thermos. Then you can put any sorts of food in there - soups, chili, etc. You can pack veggies with dip or almond butter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
berry straw 20 Posted May 5, 2018 I realized that my two dip suggestions would be out because of eggs/nuts. You should look into AIP recipes because those are all egg and nut free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lissa Kristine 13 Posted January 8, 2019 I know this is an old thread, but I'm a former daycare worker, so I've had to deal with nut free classrooms. Sunbutter Brand has a no-sugar added Sunflower seed butter that is allowed. Compliant deli meat made into little roll-ups with veggies inside or cut into fun shapes. Hotdogs/sausage or leftovers from dinner would also work. Just make sure everything is cut. Even if your child eats things like whole grapes or hot dogs at home, a lot of schools won't allow children to eat them, so it's better just to have everything pre-cut ready to eat. (I worked at a school that wouldn't allow older preschoolers to have baby carrots unless they were cooked) Ask if mayonaise is allowed. It does contain eggs, but if it's allowed, you can make chicken or tuna salad. (If it isn't, use avocado instead). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
