Which meal is the most challenging for finding safe foods or recipes?

Kathy P2/1/1912:43 PM

Breakfast - traditional breakfast foods often contain my families food allergens

Breakfast - I can't find "on the go" convenience items or they are too expensive

Lunch - I dread packing my child's lunchbox everyday!

Afterschool Snack - the ravenous horde descends every afternoon

Dinner - it's hard to find recipes and I have to make too many substitutions

Dinner - I don't have time to cook from scratch every day and it's hard to find convenience foods or they are too expensive

Desserts - it's hard to find safe treats

Desserts - recipes often need too many substitutions and the alternative ingredients are expensive

I don't have any chia seeds. Can I use flax seeds or flax meal instead?

I would opt for flax meal instead of flax seeds just to make sure that they soak in the liquid and mix through without an errant seed remaining "crunchy". Flax and chia are very similar and both can be used to make "goo" to replace eggs.
