I will be sending my oldest son, G, to kindergarten next year. He is anaphylactic to eggs, fish, and peanuts and allergic to dairy. I am going to need some lunch ideas to send with him. Obviously, it won't be able to be heated up...so, I'm really having a hard time figuring out what to send!

I can come up with enough "side dishes", like pretzels, fruit, etc...but am having difficulty with the main part of the meal. All I can really think of are sandwiches (turkey, ham, soy butter, etc.). Does anyone have any good ideas for what I can send with him for his lunches?

Anything is appreciated! Thanks!

If he can do gluten, then what is the matter with sandwiches? That's what everyone else eats (except my kids who can't have gluten). There are more deli meats than that which are safe (Thumann's roast beef; I'm pretty sure Healthy Deli bologna, which is also beef; tuna salad, salmon salad). LARA bars are good (tree nuts though), vegetables: carrot/celery/sweet pepper sticks (with hummus if he likes to dip), granola bars. My kids do chickpeas, black olives, cereal. We send water, or grape juice (DD2 also does rice milk at school in a thermos). Rice cakes.
