When we found out that our kids’ schools were nut-free, we low-key panicked.
Nuts are a staple in a plant-based diet. From PBJ sandwiches to peanut sauce to nut-based energy balls, our babes eat nuts multiple times a day.
Just cutting out nuts wasn’t going to cut it…
-
Nuts provide vital energy, fat, protein, and minerals – we needed to find something to replace those nutrients.
-
While there are several nut butter swaps out there, they don’t always taste the same, and for picky eaters this created a challenge.
-
Nuts are an important binder in many recipes – we had to find a new sticky substance.
-
Our kids will only eat so many sunflower butter sandwiches before boycotting their lunch boxes!
Coming up with creative, kid-approved, plant-based lunches and snacks that are also portable and keep-well is extremely challenging.
Now add in the fact that they also need to be nut-free – it seemed downright impossible.
Never fear, we’re here to Tom Cruise this situation for you.
