My four year old son Aiden has a peanut allergy so we have a completely nut-free house. Everything we eat is nut free. Many schools are going nut free with the rise in life threatening peanut allergies so even kids without nut allergies are having to bring nut free lunches to school. I have compiled 20 peanut free school lunch recipes and ideas to help get your creative juices flowing this year. It’s really not that difficult to go nut free once you get the hang of it. Here is some inspiration for you! Scroll through my Foodie collection to see all 20 peanut free lunch recipes.

My kids can eat peanuts, but I know sometimes their friends can’t. This will help me pack lunches that they can enjoy with their friends, great round-up!
The cranberry pretzel cheerios bars really struck home with me. Look so fun to make as well.
Great ideas for school, love when kids can take their own lunches and have it fun too!
some really good ideals I hadn’t thought of before,,my grandkids love peanuts but cant have them at school,so this would be some great alternatives
These would be great to take to school for safe treats, too!
I’m going to have to try a few of these!
Our schools here are all nut free so these are great! Thanks!
I think Peanut butter is a daily staple in our house. I have a hard time with meats and nuts are the main source of protein for me. I did have an allergic reaction to pecans the other night, makes me super sad. I love the mason jar salads. Meal prep is so important to keep me on a healthy diet. Thanks!
The snack mix and the cherrio bars look really good. Great collection of peanut free ideas for school lunches.

These are all great recipes & suggestions! Thanks for sharing with Merry Monday this week.
What a fantastic list! Our school doesn’t allow peanut treats or snacks and I’m always running out of ideas, so thank you!
