The new school year is here! Keep your family well fueled and healthy with this Kid Friendly Gluten Free Meal Plan! A gluten free meal plan full of kid approved wholesome recipes, ideas, snacks, and more!
Okay ya’ll, school is in SESSION! Oh me oh my! Routines and schedules galore! We all probably need a little more routine now though, right? It’s nice to have a game plan, especially when it comes to our health and fueling our bodies. Plus it’s important for kids learn the importance of both. That being said, this kid friendly meal plan will help take the “pressure” off you to scrounge for new gluten free/allergy friendly meals. You can rest at ease knowing all these gluten free recipes and snacks have been tried and tested by many of my family members and their kids (my nieces and nephews).
But what’s more important is that kid don’t feel deprived eating a gluten free meal plan. Instead they feel energized and healthy! It’s important for kids to really absorb their nutrients in order to maximize their growth and health. Eating a REAL FOOD gluten free diet can do just that. It reduces inflammation (with anti-inflammatory foods) in the body, fuels the brain, and replenishes the body.
Ready to eat ya’ll? Grab a pin and paper and write down your favorites! Let me know if you have any questions as well.
