Eggs are often associated with the spring, especially for the holidays. Plus, many of those delicious dishes and baked goods contain eggs, as the tradition often includes eggs. While many may not think anything of it, for those who are allergic to eggs, this can make the holiday rather tricky, especially if they happen to have a life-threatening allergy. While the task of creating an egg-free holiday may seem tricky, there are ways to have an egg free Easter and Passover.
All it takes is some creative thinking, the proper know-how, and planning, and having an egg free Easter and Passover is possible. When it comes time for games and activities, consider the following:
• In many cases, a hard-boiled egg is placed on a Seder plate. However, this is not recommended if there is a person with a life-threatening allergy. Instead, use a plastic egg or a flower in its place.
• When it comes to food, various egg-free substitutes can be used in place of eggs. All it takes is a Google web search, and you can have the information you need to substitute eggs in a food dish or baked goods safely.
• If you plan on having games and races that include eggs, don’t take the chance for an egg to break. For a person with life-threatening allergies, this could be a recipe for disaster. Instead, use plastic eggs. They are cheap and often readily available during the holidays.
• If you are having an Easter egg hunt, using fake, plastic eggs is the way to go. Don’t use real eggs if there’s someone with life-threatening allergies. Plus, you can fill plastic eggs with small toys, money, stickers, and candy, which the kids (and adults) are sure to love.
• Coloring eggs is an Easter tradition that many, both young and old, enjoy. Luckily, if there’s a person with a severe allergy to eggs, partaking in this activity will not affect them, even if they happen to have a life-threatening allergy. As long as the egg is not cracked, touching an egg’s hardshell poses no threat.
