Inspire me with packed lunches please

[fatzak]

Since his food sensitivity test showed a reaction to all sorts of foods, we've decided to give DS1 (5) packed lunches from September. Any suggestions to get away from sandwiches? Have thought of pasta salad/couscous/quiche but could do with a few more ideas.

Sorry, forgot to say he can't have oranges, smoked meats, anything with red in it!!

sausages and cucumber

eggy balls (mini egg things)

hard boiled egg

If my dds don't fancy sandwiches they sometimes have a little pot of dip (hoummus or tsatziki) with carrot sticks, cucumber sticks etc and a couple of crackers.

Or (and I realise this isn't very "Mumsnet" of me) a veggie sausage roll and pot of salad.

Or I sometimes make them little pies in jam tart tins, with lentils and vege inside them and a pastry top.

Oh some good ideas! He's a great eater and used to love school dinners, but his behaviour and concentration had been a problem so we had a food sensitivity test. He's also very sensitive to MSG which I didn't realise is in stock, gravy granules etc. So if he had something like shepherds pie, gravy, orange juice, jelly, then he could be off the wall by the afternoon!!
