20 Allergy Friendly Back To School Snacks
Attention Class! School is back in session! I know it’s a struggle to have to get back into the habit of making lunches again, and it can be even more difficult when your kiddo has food allergies.
I wanted to put together a list of my favorite go-to allergy-friendly snacks. They can be snacks for work, after school, or to put in your kid’s lunchbox. They are tasty whether you have allergies or not - I can promise you that. I couldn’t narrow it down to just a few, so I divided it into sweet and savory categories for you. I also added a protein bar category for you, as well.
These snacks are not all Top 8 Free, but they are all free of some of the common allergens. So make sure you check the ingredients for what is best for you and your family.
Remember, these snacks are great for school, to keep on hand for an after school snack, a sports game or even as movie theater snacks! Yes - I am giving you permission to sneak food into the movies. And if they stop you, just say that Krysten from Krysten’s Kitchen said it’s okay, and that, also, you have food allergies/intolerances.
Happy & healthy snacking!
Rule Breakers Brownies and Blondies
gluten-free, non-GMO, top 8 free, dairy free, nut-free, vegan, organic
This brownie is made from BEANS, but you would never know it! It's also jam-packed with protein, low in sugar, non-GMO, 100% plant-based and free of the top 8 allergens.
I have been a fan of Rule Breaker Brownies (and their Blondies) since Expo West 2016. You could say it was love at first taste! I fell in love with the minimal ingredients, and I love that they use maple syrup to sweeten their brownies rather than traditional cane sugar. There is a little cane sugar in the chocolate chunks, however, but there's none added to the actual batter to make the brownies.
Rule Breaker’s Blondies and Brownies are so fudgey, have the perfect amount of sweetness and are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth around.
Right now, you can find these blondies and brownies at www.RuleBreakerSnacks.com and in retailers on the East Coast. For a limited time, from now until October 31st, 2017, you can use my code KRYSTENSKITCHEN on their website for 10% off ($25 minimum) and stock up! Stock up and keep them in your fridge or get extras for the freezer.
Watusee Foods Popped Caramel Sea Salt Chickpeatos
gluten-free, non-GMO, soy-free, corn-free, kosher, vegan, organic, cane sugar free
I found these snacks from Watusee Foods at Expo West in March, and they are probably one of our favorite things ever. I think the Caramel Sea Salt might be my legit fav! My family is obsessed with these sweet snacks for many reasons: they aren’t too sweet, they are made with coconut sugar (rather than cane sugar), they are high in protein, are corn-free and have simple, clean ingredients.
I made the tastiest treats with them recently; you can see that recipe here. I combined them with marshmallows and drizzled some chocolate on top, and they were just as addicting as eating them plain… or maybe even more addicting!
These Popped Caramel Sea Salt mini single serve packs are 100 calories, have less than 1g of sugar (from coconut sugar) and are so jam packed with protein and flavor that you will forget you are eating a healthy, good-for-you snack. You can even top your smoothie with these and hide the bag from your spouse! (shhhhhh!)
Right now, they are available at www.WatuseeFoods.com and come in large 4oz bags or small 1oz bags, which are convenient for school snacks and lunches. They will be available in stores soon.
Justin’s Maple Almond Butter Single Serve Packs

You can eat this plain or along with some strawberries or apples for a well-rounded healthy snack.
Justin’s Maple Almond Butter is totally satisfying, will cure a sweet craving and is made with clean ingredients.

These crackers have been a staple in our house for a very long time. One of my first YouTube videos was all about these incredible crackers that are made from nuts and seeds.
Jilz Crackers now come in small serving packets that are great for lunches and on-the-go snacks. You can eat them plain, with a dip of choice, cheese of choice or meat.

Beanitos Baked White Bean Mac and Cheese Crunch
gluten-free, vegetarian, non-gmo
I am an addict and I don’t care who knows it! Sometimes, my husband and I need to refrain from buying a bag of these at the store, because they are opened in the car and finished before we get home…. and we only live 10 minutes from the store! THAT is how delicious these are. Beanitos solved that problem because they made small single-serving bags of these tasty Mac and Cheese snacks, which you can order on Amazon.
They are baked, and compared to their mainstream alternative, Beanitos Baked White Bean Mac and Cheese Crunch have half the sodium, twice the fiber, less fat and way above that they are made with real, simple ingredients that you can actually pronounce. Choosing products that contain less ingredients that you can easily pronounce and which you know what they are is the way to go.
You can buy these tasty, finger-licking Beanitos in the small snack-size on Amazon and the larger sizes in Sprouts, Whole Foods Market and other similar retailers. To learn more, visit www.Beanitos.com
Enjoy Life Margherita Pizza or Garlic Parmesan Plentils
gluten-free, soy free, casein free, top 8 free, sulfite free, non-gmo, cane sugar free
Plentils are crunchy, savory, airy, light and flavorful. I think the best flavors are the Margherita Pizza and the Garlic Parmesan Plentils. They are made from lentils which gives these chips some extra protein compared to other chip options.
Enjoy Life Foods makes wonderful food allergy friendly snacks, baking mixes and more. They really care about the ingredients that they choose and make foods that are safe for those with allergies.
You can eat these crunchy chips on their own or use them to dip. I like that they don’t have artificial anything, and they have 40% less fat than the average potato chips, which makes these a better option that many of the other “chips” out there.
You can purchase these from Enjoy Life’s website or at stores like Sprouts, Whole Foods Market and Mother’s Markets (Orange County, CA). To learn more about the Plentils, visit www.EnjoyLifeFoods.com
Siete Foods Chips Lime Grain Free Tortilla Chips

Siete chips are made of cassava flour. Cassava is a mineral-rich root veggie and is a staple crop in many parts of the world, including Latin America, Africa and Asia.
You can eat these delicious chips plain or with guacamole, hummus, or any dip of choice. The chips are pretty light and crispy, but sturdy enough for dipping… so dip away!

GO RAW Zesty Pizza Sprouted Flax Snax

These snax are a good source of protein, fiber and there is no cholesterol. There are just a handful of organic ingredients that make these bites of “pizza” come to life.
They are somewhere between a cracker and a chip, so you can dip them into your fav spread or eat them plain.

Perfect Bar (Minis)
gluten-free, non-GMO, soy-free, organic
This is probably my favorite of all the bars! It reminds me of peanut butter cookie dough. I love the texture of this bar… it's as if you made peanut butter cookie dough, shaped the dough into bars, and refrigerated them.
We love the mini Perfect Bars because they are great for a quick snack that has over 20 different organic superfoods, it’s only 100 calories and has 5g of protein.

These bars are a great source of fiber, protein and are low in carbs and sugar. They are made with grass-fed collagen (collagen has incredible benefits), Turkish almonds, roasted pumpkin seeds and have a chewy dark chocolate caramel coating. I am drooling now!
