Parents Quick, healthy snack

[Flip4funmom]

Long story short my son's coach has offered to keep snacks is in his office for my son for before practice (he goes straight from school). My question is what do you recommend? We have a very strict nut free building policy at our gym so my go to (and his favorite) of peanut butter type stuff is out. I need something quick but will also sustain him through 2 hours of gym plus 30 minutes before dinner at home. He is a very cranky, uncooperative child when hungry.

Thanks

Thanks again

Crackers, applesauce pouches, yogurt pouches, ritz cracker sandwiches or handi-snacks, beef jerkey, pretzels, clif kids z bars, Belvita Bites, Quaker chewy bites. I am assuming you want shelf stable no refrigeration stuff.

Can you make his favorite with wowbutter or another substitute for the peanut butter?

Apple slices, laughing cow cheese, American cheese singles, horizon shelf stable milk, pretzel sticks, mini bagels, regular old bread... like eating a straight slice of a cinnamon raisin bread can be quite satisfying when hungry.

My dd is a big fan of trail mix and that has always been her go to gym snack. Recently the implemented no peanuts or tree nuts.

So we now make our own with sunflower seeds, pepitas, dried cranberries and raisins and a few m&m.

Make sure there aren't too many sunflower seeds... those can lead to a rush for the bathroom.
