Re: school lunch ideas - new to SCD

[Guest guest]

Just some thought off the top of my head...Roast beef cooked in slow cooker with carrotsButternut squash soup with shredded chickenSCD Chicken soup with chicken carrots & green beansChicken/veggie pAtties: purée cooked chicken, cooked veggies, and eggs. Make patties and cook on stove with coconut oil. ( they make great quick snacks)Spaghetti squash with meatballs and tomato juice cooked down to be thickLucy's kitchen has a good bread recipe to use for sandwichesHamburger meatballs in broth with veggiesSo

much depends on what your son can tolerate. Nourishing soups will be so good for him. I gave suggestions but you don't want to introduce foods too quickly. UC-C 12/09SCD 1/10Daily, CLO, Magnesium, bromelain, acidophilus Mom of 2 crazy monkeys :-)

Hi, I'm gearing up to start the SCD for my 11 year old son with Crohn's. He's on the verge of his first surgery, which I'm so desperate to try and prevent. I just learned about SCD a week ago. We haven't started yet but I'm gathering as much info as possible. So far I'm lacking ideas for his school lunches. Any tips? Thanks! Grateful to have found this group.

Hi ,

I take my lunch to work everyday. I just ordered the bento lunch kit from Amazon

that was recommended here.

Today I have chicken soup in a thermos which I am going to add a half an avocado

to. I also have sauteed kale with onions and garlic and a hamburger.

Tonight I am making beef soup in my crockpot which I will take with me

tommorrow.

I also bring baked chicken with carrots a lot. I'm sure pecanbread.com has a lot

of ideas.

Take care,

June

Hi and welcome!

Someone was actually just asking about this and one of our members wrote a

response that I thought might be helpful to you. See below

school nut free? That would be hard. I make cheese sandwiches for DH to take to

work. He doesn't like much else, but you can always do turkey or anything else

you would put on a sandwich.

> I also make all sorts of things into pancakes. Regular pancakes,

chicken,squash, cheese (DCCC) - DH likes finger foods. If you need any

recipes, let me know.

Chips are great too. I make zuchini chips in my dehydrator with olive oil and

salt. (I used to make them in the oven).

>Will she eat eggs - hard boiled are easy and travel well.

Thanks, , for your response. I just made a big batch of chicken soup

last night. I can hardly wait to get home and try your Chicken /veggie patties.

Sounds yummy.

Thanks, June. I hope your new Bento kit works well for you. We might need to buy

one, too. Please let me know how you like it.

Thanks again.

Thanks Joanna. Because I'm new to this group there are some acronyms I don't

know yet. Can you tell me what DCCC is?

I need to ask my son's school if they are nut free. Thank you so much for

bringing that to my attention.

Do you have a dehydrator? If so, can you suggest a brand and model?

Thanks again

You're welcome. I just made a big batch of salmon patties and froze them. That would be easy too. UC-C 12/09SCD 1/10Daily, CLO, Magnesium, bromelain, acidophilus Mom of 2 crazy monkeys :-)

DCCC = dry curd cottage cheese. If you can't find it, you can do what I

did my first four years, and substitute well-drained yogurt

cheese.

For a dehydrator, I highly recommend the nine-tray Excalibur. It's great

for making yogurt and a million other things.

Also, if you want to see a picture of the label of the brand that makes DCCC

that most of us use, go to:

Files < Getting Started < DCCC.pdf

I get mine at Whole Foods and they are pretty receptive to ordering it in if

needed. I hope you can get it!
