This year will be my toddler's first pesach that he will be eating real food. He is severely allergic to peanuts, tree nuts, dairy, eggs, fish, and sesame and I am really worried about what we will feed him. Any advice, ideas, or recipes would be greatly appreciated! Tia!

you should ask a shayla regarding gebrokts and kitnius as he is a toddler. years ago we asked our rav if we could bring our toddler to our friend who uses rice on pesach to eat. it would be a shame if he is restricted for no reason, he is just a toddler.

Hug

potatoes (cubes, french fries, potato salad, egg free potato kugel, parsley baby red potatoes, latkes)
sweet potatoes (cubes, french fries, sweet potato hash)
quinoa
matzo
meat (beef stew, meatballs, burgers, meatloaf, shish kebab, steak)
chicken (nuggets, roasted, chicken "matza" balls)
chicken soup and zucchini "noodles"
roasted vegetables, vegetable patties, veggie stix, salad
apple sauce, poached pear

For breakfast fresh fruit will be your best bet.
You can also make hash browns.
Lunch and dinner chicken strips (not coated),veggies, butternut fries, sweet potato, baked French fries.

Staying away from eggs I think will be your biggest challenge.

Yeah, we have all the same allergies in our house - it's a lot of potatoes and meat/chicken. My people are also picky, which is just silly.

There's a cookbook called "A Taste of Freedom" which is an allergy friendly cookbook. All the recipes are free of milk, eggs, nuts, and fish. Also, find out if you could use soy. When ds was an allergic toddler, I was told he could have his soymilk/ soy yogurts, but not to use my pesach dishes for it.

To the main poster and also the poster whose kid is allergic to potatoes: I was allergic to all those things as a kid, and also potatoes. My parents asked the rav when I was little about pesach and he said that I SHOULD eat kitniyot. Please, please ask your rav if this is okay for your child - especially if your child is a baby, though also if your child is older: even a week of inusfficient nutrition could be considered damaging to the chlid's health or even dangerous and halachically you may be OBLIGATED to feed him/her kitniyot. Even adults with these allergies get a heter to eat kitniyot on pesach.
