Lunch on the Road

Filed under: Blog, What's in my GFCF Lunch? — ozma at 8:25 pm on Saturday, November 11, 2006

Dorothy had a big, overnight, school trip out of state recently, and one of the big challenges to her going was the food (of course!). She is on a strict GFCF diet, and is allergic to 40 other foods - making her ability to eat at the buffet or fast food non-existant. In order to allow her to go on the trip, we provoided all of her food for her. The lunch below is a great example of what we packed for her:
Lunch for the Trip all packed up

Everything was packed in small ziplock bags (we normally use Reynolds Cut-Rite Sandwich Bags as they are waxed paper and Dorothy is allergic to plastic - but for the sake of not spilling went with plastic bags for the trip).

Here you can see the contents:
Lunch for the Trip

We packed rice cakes (as our local store was out of GFCF bread…) with GFCF mayo in a squeeze, lunchmeat, and some lettuce for an instant sandwitch (that isn’t soggy), carrots, pumpkin seeds, a pear, and some chips. Not the paragon of nutrition, but way better than McRonad’s…..
