Their lunches are the toughest. They completely dislike tofu and peanut butter and jelly is discouraged since children at the school are very allergic to p.b. What do others vegan mom's feed their children for school lunch and not get complaints?

My nephews love this one: 1 can butterbeans - drained and mashed 1/4 cup nutritional yeast flakes 1 Tablespoon tamari Send that in tupperware with some toasted pitas and shredded salad mix (lettuce, carrot, red cabbage....no seriously...) In fact, my nephews spend a week out here every year, and have never once asked, "Don't you guys eat meat?" www

Also, are your kids allowed to bring any other kind of nut or seed butter to school? My kids especially like sunflower seed butter and almond butter but there are a bunch of different kinds. If you can't find any other types of nut butters in your area, you can make them yourself if you have a food processor.
