Guest guest Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 That's really a great idea. What do other folks take with them for a quick and easy snack? Along with the PB and crackers, you'd need a small knife or spreader, and some napkins. - <glpveg4life Friday, March 02, 2007 7:31 PM Re: Ideas for Traveling - Lunch CeCe > HI CeCe: > > I very often take a jar of peanut butter and some crackers or bread with > me > when I am traveling this way I know there is always something I can eat. > > Gayle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 I like to carry nuts (almonds, cashews, peanuts, walnuts) and dried fruit (raisins, dates, mango, cranberries). Compact, dry and fit in the pockets of backpacks and daypacks. Baby carrots are also nice, and any kind of trans-fat free whole grain crackers are good too. You can also carry nut butters other than peanut (cashew, sunflower, almond) and hummus (the kind in a jar that doesn't have to be refrigerated until you open it).

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 You could buy some Ezekiel bread at a health food store. I understand those with a gluten in tolereance can eat it. It is really delicious. Then take along some sandwich fillings to make up when you are ready. Take some Veganaise in a small container in your cooler. Such as cucumber slices, tomatoes, shredded carrots, green peppers, onions, sunflower seeds, lettuce, etc and make up the sandwiches as you are ready for them, so they don't get soggy. Wrap the bottom of the sandwich in a paper towel to help keep your ingredients in your sandwiches. We like to add chips to our sandwiches for extra crunch and the need for any salt. Take along raw veggie sticks, container of slice watermellon or sliced cantaolpe/honeydew mellon, etc. Wash and dry some Apples, necterinces, grapes, etc. Trail mix is also a great combo of dried fruit and nuts that is a nice mix of salty and sweet and more filling. Take a tossed salad or fruit salad in your cooler. You can also put your tossed salad dressing in a small tupperware container and also store it in your cooler. Have paper plates to put some one, when you are ready to eat. Always take a can opener, surrraited knife, butter knife, and forks and spoons for everyone in your vehicle. We like to stop at Rest Areas for our picnic's. They have nice picnic tables and bathrooms. You can wash off your utensils off in the bathroom after your meals. There are also nice areas to get out and have a short walk to stretch your legs. A roll of paper towels is a must, because you always end up needing it. Keep glasses from home in your vehicle at all times, so you can fill them up with water at each stop. You can put some ice in your own cup for free at the soda fountain and then fill it up with water in the bathroom. We sometimes keep dry gatorade mix in the vehicle to stir into our glass, we get back to your vehicle You could make some peanut butter with honey and banana sandwiches. Use the Ezekiel bread. We love sorgham and crunch peanut butter on a slice of bread. Take a jar of each and make it up when you are ready to eat it. We often take soups(either homemade or canned), microwave popcorn or left overs from dinner on a plate. Then we heat it in those microwaves at most gas stations, when we are ready to eat. They don't mind. We take Vegetarian Baked Bean to heat that way also. Have a mug in your vehicle to use for soups, canned beans, heating water for hot tea, Be sure and cover your food so you don't mess up their microwave. We've got lots of other ideas, but they wouldn't fit your needs because of your many allergies, but this should help you out. Enjoy your road trip, Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
