Don’t rely on the school for an egg-free lunch. Let your child help make the lunch so they will be excited about eating it and not accept food from another child.
Croissants typically do not have egg in them. Store bought croissants can have a glossy top. That usually implies someone brushed them with egg wash before baking. It is better to get the Pillsbury croissants and bake them yourself. You can add butter or jelly to them before you roll them up for a nice evenly flavored bread
