My friend Sophie never leaves the house without a container of scroggin, and I've started to include it in the regualr lunch line up - it's great for those 'just in case you get hungry' moments. The best part is you can put just about anything into it and adjust it for fussy eaters. Basically it's a mix of any of the following types of food:
sultanas/raisins
chicknuts
banana chips
dried cranberries
dried apricots
dried dates
dried apple
corn chips
This is a nut-free list to get you started - obviously nuts can be added for non-school occassions. The scroggin can be kept in a sealed container in their backpack and topped up accordingly. And isn't schmogle a great word ;-)
Curious..Why can't nuts be included for school occasions? Sorry, if I'm asking a dumb question, I'm from the States...we ask lot's of dumb questions...
