In our school district, you need to have something written from the doctor and fill out a form. Then the lunch was in a separate area, so my kids just take their own or eat a salad at school.
3rd day of school DS15 is already complaining about not having enough to eat.
He doesn't have the time for lunch because he took an orchestra class and a chorus class along with the required. So I need to pack things that he can eat during another class.
Today's lunch: 4 oz of salami--he said the Udi's sandwich was a PITA, apple slices with dip, trail mix, drinkable yogurt, water, payday bar.
DD doesn't like sandwiches anymore, so she always gets a lettuce roll up and yogurt--the Chobani from Sam's club has a ton of protein and really fills you up.
And I usually throw in some sort of chip--today I didn't, so I'm sure DS will come home "starving" (And this year, he probably is; Today up at 6:15. Cross country at 3 and then he has to wait for his sister who is taking a lesson for violing at 4:30.)
Those Think bars and bites are great, too--makes me feel like they have something to eat in the afternoon before the strenuous outdoor stuff starts.
For other lunch ideas and support, if you haven't checked out the
www.celiac.com forums, then that's a great place to head.
