Safe, Nutritious, and Inclusive Meals for Every Student

SERVING SCHOOLS WITH HEALTHY, NUTRITIOUS SCHOOL MEALS

Finding clear Freshtoday Midlands allergen information shouldn’t be hard. Every meal comes with full allergen details so parents can order with complete confidence, and schools can support every student’s dietary needs without the guesswork.

We’re proud to serve nutritious, balanced meals made from quality ingredients. Our recipes are designed to meet national school nutrition guidelines while also catering to real-life dietary needs, including allergen-free options, plant-based meals, and dishes tailored for sensory sensitivities.

Our standard meals feature hidden vegetables and lentils added to sauces for extra fibre and nutrition. We offer over 25 different options each week, and several that are completely allergen-free and clearly marked. Allergen-friendly options can be filtered easily through our app, and all meals are developed in line with Healthy Ireland guidelines using in-house, vegetable-rich sauces – like our Ballymaloe base pulsed with extra veg.

Gluten, Crustaceans, Eggs, Fish, Peanuts, Soybeans, Milk, Nuts, Celery, Mustard, Sesame Seeds, Sulphur Dioxide & Sulphites, Lupin, and Molluscs.

Every meal we prepare is carefully checked and labelled so parents and schools can make informed choices. Full allergen details are available on our menus, the Freshtoday App, and from our customer support team.

We also take extra precautions in our kitchens to minimise the risk of cross-contamination, and our staff are fully trained in allergen awareness. Parents can trust that Freshtoday puts safety, transparency, and peace of mind at the heart of every meal we serve.
