When meal prepping, you should be sure to include, fruits, vegetables, protein, and dairy (if they require substitute a non-dairy option). It is important to provide a vegetable as it aids with digestion. Children who only eat carbohydrates have something called carb crashes. This means that they get energy from the carb that is easily digested causing a spike in the blood sugar levels, then those sugar levels crash. As a result, your child will appear hyper then tired. When proteins and vegetables are part of the diet, they reduce this making your child’s blood sugars more stable.
