Indian snack for American kids !

With many restrictions I think it is a good idea to bring something from a store just because they have product information and expiry date. I think you should keep something as simple as Indian biscuits....I am assuming this is for a younger group.

 

Only problem is u have to check properly for allergens for the stuff from indian store. My son has many allergies and its always a challenge to get stuff for him from indian store. Many of the fried stuff are done in peanut oil, so be careful when u read labels. How about indian style sandwiches ? Mild green chutney + cheese ones? Or you can try making rolls with puff pastry and indian style filling.

 

my suggestion is as below :-

1. Make chappatis - cut them into triangles .- i used gluten free wheat .
2. Decorate the chappatis with some veggies like shredded carrot and cucumber (make it like a face) .
3. else roll the chappatis with the veggies(steamed) and cut them into small rolls and serve them with some sauce if required.

this is what one i made last year for my frds sons mothers day .........as you said too much restriction .....-gluten allergy,diary allergy,protein,peanut ............. god save these children and tight hugs to their parents

 

Recently I came across gluten free, nut free, dairy free ready to bake cupcakes in Walmart. Check that out but not exactly Indian though.

 

It is always a good idea to buy commercially prepared food for school children.........You can also ask the school teacher....She might give you a list of snack items to choose from........
