🍲 Monday Meal Plan Recipes for Middle Schoolers with Crohn's

Hello, parents. 😌 Managing your child's diet when they have Crohn's disease is no easy task. Children with Crohn's often have weakened digestive systems, making them sensitive to certain foods. That's why a carefully planned meal that is both nutritious and easy to digest is essential.

Today, I’m sharing a complete Monday meal plan designed specifically for middle schoolers with Crohn's. It includes breakfast, lunch, dinner, and a snack – all made with gentle ingredients that are easy on the stomach.

Let's get started! 💖
