"Mia figlia č allergica ai seguenti alimenti, che non devono assolutamente trovarsi in ciņ che mangia:
1) uova
2) noci
3) piselli
4) lenticchie;
5) ceci
6) Fagioli (All beans, or just the red "kidney" variety?)

La prego di consigliarmi qualcosa che non contenga nulla di tutto ciņ, e di chiedere al cuoco in caso di dubbio"

I added a prayer to ask the cook is the waiter has doubt on what's inside.
You can paste it in a page, print it in several copyes, to have it with you.

Is she is very sensitive to the allergy (in this case, we can underline the fact), or a very small amount of those can be tolerated?

Ciao

(P.S. to doublecheck the names translation, search the english wikipedia (it as usually the classification latin name of the variety, then clisk "italian", see if the variety is the same and read the italian name.
Be careful that in some regions of italy there may be (expecially in soups = Zuppa) some other rare legumes
